The custom web design studio

Custom web design for businesses that know what they want.

Linekern Studio is an independent web studio that designs and builds custom websites for businesses that want a cleaner, more technically reliable alternative to generic page builders and WordPress-heavy agency setups.

The studio was founded on a straightforward observation: most businesses paying for a professional website are not getting one. They're getting a template with their logo on it, maintained by someone who doesn't understand the code.

"The website must feel like it was built by someone who can actually code - because it was."

Linekern's offer is different: a custom-built website, a structured CMS called Kernset, and a monthly model that includes the build itself. The client gets a real website with real source code - and an ongoing relationship with the person who built it.

I design and build custom websites for businesses that want something more than a theme and a plugin stack. Every Linekern project is handled personally - from the first conversation to launch and beyond.

I've been building websites for years. For a long time that meant WordPress - powerful in theory, but endlessly frustrating in practice. Plugins conflicting, designs drifting, clients accidentally breaking things. It was a pain for me and a bigger pain for them.

So I changed direction. I moved to custom-coded websites - clean TypeScript, structured layouts, no inherited baggage - and built Kernset alongside them: a CMS designed specifically around how each site is structured, so clients can edit content without ever touching the design. That combination is what Linekern is built on.

The approach

How every custom web project at Linekern runs.

The studio follows the same disciplined process for every project - regardless of plan. No corners are cut on a Start plan that wouldn't be cut on Custom.

01 - Discovery
Brief first, build second.
Every project starts with a clear conversation about the business, the audience, and what the website needs to achieve. No generic onboarding forms.
02 - Design
Architecture before aesthetics.
Structure and layout are designed together. Every visual decision has a structural reason. The design is never decoration added on top of a template.
03 - Delivery
Code, CMS, then care.
Custom-coded and launched with Kernset configured. Source code handed over. Ongoing technical maintenance managed - as long as the relationship continues.
