hello@webshapedesign.co.uk
Webshape Design was founded in 2015 by John Lawley with a simple belief: a website should be your hardest-working business tool, not a digital brochure that sits there looking pretty.
Over the past decade, we’ve built websites for more than 100 businesses — from trades companies generating local leads to professional services firms repositioning for growth, from eCommerce stores scaling their sales to construction companies winning bigger tenders.
What connects them all is transition. Our best clients come to us at a pivotal moment: they’re preparing for acquisition, scaling after investment, pivoting their services, entering new markets, or simply outgrowing a website that no longer reflects who they are. We call these businesses in transition — and they’re exactly who we do our best work for.
We’re based in London with offices in Kings Cross and Barnet, and we work with businesses across the UK. Our team is small and intentional — which means you work directly with the people who build your website, not account managers passing messages along a chain.
We’re a small team that works closely with every client. No layers, no hand-offs — the people you talk to are the people who build your website.
Founder & Director
John founded Webshape in 2015 after a career in media production at Wise Buddah, where he worked with brands including the BBC, Disney, and Nintendo. That background in storytelling and audience understanding shapes how we approach every website — strategy first, design second. John leads on client relationships, creative direction, and making sure every project delivers measurable results.
Account Executive
Tugce manages client communications, project coordination, and marketing across our channels. She's the person who keeps projects running smoothly and makes sure nothing falls through the cracks — from content preparation and competitor research to keeping you updated at every stage of your build.
There are thousands of web design agencies. Here’s why businesses in transition choose to work with us.
We don’t just build websites — we build websites that deliver measurable results. An 8× increase in leads for a trades client. 154% traffic growth for an eCommerce business. 159% conversion improvement for a home services company. 15 page-one keywords for a property management firm, ranking alongside the biggest names in their sector. Every project is built around outcomes, not aesthetics.
Real feedback from businesses who trust Webshape to build websites that deliver results.
Thanks to John and his team we have a stunning new brand and website at TheFitnessPlace.London. I’ve really valued working with John and the results have been amazing.
I have and continue to have the pleasure in working with John. He is a highly motivated and imaginative individual and an expert in his field. I highly recommend John for all your marketing, branding and web designing needs for your company.
I have used your services for a few times now. You helped me with re-designing our logos, vehicle livery, business cards design and new door hanger design. I must say I have had nothing but a great experience with you and your company.
I would just like to pass on my appreciation for the logo design services… at first glance I immediately knew this was the logo to represent my company and our future. I would have no hesitation in recommending you.
Thank you so much for making the wonderful new website for our charity. Your commitment to deliver this against the tightest of deadlines ensured the vastly improved MRF site was available online in this particularly newsworthy week.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the excellent website and rebranding you carried out for us. Since the new website has launched we’ve seen a massive increase in enquiries and a higher conversion rate.
Many thanks to John and his team. We are thrilled with our new branding, website and marketing materials. Our new professional look has allowed us to grow our business and increase the areas in which we do business.
Your attention to detail, skill set and patience exceeded all of my expectations. Our website is now something my firm are proud of rather than an embarrassment. If you have any doubts ask to see some of his work.
Thanks to John and his team the enquiries are coming through thick and fast and the right type of enquiry too! Many thanks for our swish and very functional website.
Webshape helped both with a new landing page for a our website and a MailChimp campaign. I’ve been so impressed with his level of detail and professionalism. I will continue to use John for all future works.
John and his team helped us with our new branding, website and social media strategy which has transformed our business for the better. We are now attracting more of the right kind of customers, especially through our new website.
This website was of particular importance to get right and you and your team nailed it working really well with us and our client. We were especially pleased with how well this site came out and the optimisation for page load speed considering the amount of video content.
Were very easy to work with and we were confident of a good result even after the first conversation. His knowledge and expertise was really brought to the fore in what was a challenging but very successful web build.
Very happy with the new site and the animation. Working with Webshape is incredibly easy. The process is so well thought out at the beginning that once the first draft was created it didn’t need any other tweaks.
You are working for us on several projects at the moment from creating branding for a new venture to designing marketing campaigns. Webshape definitely do what it says on their can and we will continue to use them and would have no hesitation in recommending them.
We were blown away by the new website and brand which has made such a difference to us and how our customers see us. It was definitely worth making the effort.
