Web design from Schaffhausen, built by hand

Web design from Schaffhausen means at Grafwerk: we design and code your website by hand, in the studio in Neuhausen am Rheinfall. No off-the-shelf theme, no builder with a hundred unused features. Instead, a layout that grows from your content, and code we answer for line by line.

Frequently asked questions

What does web design cost at Grafwerk?

All amounts stand openly on the price overview – from the one-pager to the multi-page site to projects with additional features, which run via a quote. After the concept you receive a fixed price.

How long does a website project take?

A one-pager is online in two to three weeks, a full site in four to six weeks, depending on how quickly content and feedback arrive. Projects with additional features take longer; the duration is stated in the quote.

Is a one-pager enough for my business?

If your offer is compact and the goal of the page is getting in touch: yes. For several clearly separate offers or your own blog, a multi-page site makes more sense.

Can I expand later?

Yes. Every site is built so that sub-pages and functions can be added later, without redoing the design or the technology. There is no builder system standing in the way.

Can you build in appointment booking?

Yes. Appointment booking, forms with downstream processing, customer areas and connections to existing software are all possible. Such projects are quoted individually, because the effort depends on the range of functions.

What web design from Schaffhausen means with us

Every project begins with your content, not a template. We ask what your customers need to know before they call or order. From that comes the structure of the page, then the design: typography with character, an accent colour, plenty of space. Only once the concept stands do we write code.

The difference from a builder shows in the detail. Load times under two seconds, text that search engines can read in full, and a layout that convinces on a phone just as much as on a large screen. We achieve this because we write every line ourselves and carry nothing your site does not need. What such a detail looks like technically, the mask reveal showcase shows: motion without a single layout shift.

Three scopes, one way of working

**The one-pager** is the most concentrated form: a single page that explains your offer, builds trust and leads to contact. For many small businesses this is not the budget option but the right size. Most visitors want to know three things — what you offer, whether the business looks trustworthy and how to reach you. A good one-pager answers that in a clear sequence, without anyone getting lost in menus. It is the most affordable entry point and is online in two to three weeks.

**The multi-page site** separates what belongs apart: offer, team, references, contact. Sensible as soon as you have several clearly distinct services or want to add content regularly. The site is online in four to six weeks.

**Websites with additional features** go further: appointment booking, forms with downstream processing, customer areas, multilingual sites, connections to existing software. Such projects are quoted individually, because the effort depends on the range of functions rather than the number of pages. You receive a binding quote in advance, not an estimate.

The path is the same in all three cases — and you are not locking yourself in: a one-pager can grow into a multi-page site later without a rebuild, and additional features can be retrofitted, because no builder system stands in the way.

Our process: four steps, no surprises

First the conversation: we clarify goals, audience and scope, with you on site in the Schaffhausen region or via video. Second the concept: you receive structure, a text skeleton and a designed draft of the home page. Third the build: we build the site, you see every interim state under a test address. Fourth the launch: we take the site live, set up the search-engine basics and hand everything over documented.

A one-pager is online in two to three weeks, a multi-page site in four to six weeks. Larger projects with more features are quoted individually. Fixed price after the concept, no recurring licence costs. The amounts stand openly on the price overview.

Who it is worth it for

Our customers are SMEs, gastronomy, trades and practices from Schaffhausen, Neuhausen am Rheinfall and the Weinland. Businesses that want a website that carries their presence rather than diluting it. If you have worked with a builder so far and can’t shake the feeling that your site looks like a thousand others: that is exactly what we are here for.

You reach us without fuss. A short first conversation costs nothing and shows you what is possible for your presence.
