Begin with a conversation
A phone call and a notepad usually reveal more than a long specification. We want to understand what you are building, what is getting in the way and what better would look like.

Consiliuma / About the studio
I’m Chris, founder of Consiliuma. I combine more than 25 years of design and development experience with a small team, carefully built systems and modern automation to do thoughtful, effective work for businesses that care about getting it right.

Working worldwide
Chris divides his time between the UK and Thailand. We welcome projects from businesses and organisations worldwide, with remote collaboration, agreed meeting times and a direct point of contact.
We agree the project scope, currency, hosting requirements and ongoing support before work begins. Tell us where your team and clients work so those decisions fit your business.

01 / The beginning
I built my first website in Microsoft Publisher in 1999, sitting in my father’s factory and teaching myself how the pieces fitted together. Dreamweaver, hand-written code, WordPress and every major shift in the web followed.

02 / The practice
I have worked across design, websites, content, search, commerce and software. The tools keep changing. The responsibility does not: make the business clearer, easier to choose and better equipped for the work ahead.

03 / The studio today
Today I lead Consiliuma with a trusted team supporting selected projects. We build and use our own CRM systems, email tools, outreach workflows and automation. AI is part of the toolkit, but it is not the identity of the business.
How we work
A phone call and a notepad usually reveal more than a long specification. We want to understand what you are building, what is getting in the way and what better would look like.
Good design gives shape to the thing you already know is valuable. It makes the offer easier to understand, trust and act on.
Your website, content and systems should belong to you, work properly on every screen and leave room for the business to grow.
Automation and AI can increase what a small studio can do. They do not replace taste, responsibility, or the human conversation at the centre of the work.
The next conversation
A first conversation can be informal, practical and completely free of agency theatre. Tell us about the business, the ambition and what is getting in the way.
