Web Design
Airtight Design is an Atlanta web design agency that provides custom design work for all our clients’ websites. Your site will always be designed from scratch by one of our in-house designers and have a unique style that truly reflects your brand.
Custom web design – everytime.
Some web design companies use templates, which can be readily found online for free or for a small fee. While this can be a cheap way to build a website quickly, keep in mind the old saying, “You get what you pay for.” Creating a custom design for your website means that your site will show the world what makes your organization unique. You’ll never see another site that looks just like what Airtight will design for you.
Way more than web design –
web development
The term “web design” is a little misleading. Airtight is a full-service web design and web development company. We don’t just design the public interface of the site. We also develop the front- and back-end of the site, which may include interactive features, database integration and integration with third-party systems. We can help you establish a web hosting account that meets the technical specifications of your new site or we can work with your existing server.

Our web design process
Once we have established a requirements document, we begin designing your site. Here are the steps:
- We request brand guidelines and examples of other collateral materials.
- Airtight hosts a meeting to hear about your preferences for the site.
- We perform a competitive analysis to see what we can learn from similar organizations.
- Typically, we provide two mockups for the homepage of your website.
- You’ll choose one mockup and give feedback for revisions.
- After the homepage is revised, we’ll design interior pages so that the look and feel is consistent throughout the user experience.
- As our developers build the site, our UX experts will review their work to ensure their vision was properly implemented.

Web Design Technologies
These are some of the web design and development tools and techniques we like to use:
Adobe Creative Cloud
The industry standard software suite for designing websites and web applications. This is our primary tool for creating interactive mockups.
HTML CSS JS
Well-written HTML and CSS are vital for a good user experience. JavaScript makes it come alive. These are the fundamentals of any good website tech stack. We insist on writing clean, efficient HTML, CSS and JavaScript because it will benefit the client for as long as the site exists.
PHP
No other server-side language is as popular as PHP. With vast open source resources and a huge community, it’s a logical choice for most sites.
WordPress
There’s a reason that more than 40% of all websites use WordPress. It’s an easy way to have a ton of functionality and an intuitive CMS. What started as a basic blog platform has become an extremely flexible and powerful platform for building complex websites and web applications.
React
Airtight uses ReactJS to build website interfaces with dynamic content. React JS is a JavaScript library originally developed by Facebook and used to build interactive elements on websites. It is open source software, meaning that we can use it without licensing fees for our client.
Airtight Design Web Development Using Laravel
Laravel is a newer, but well-established PHP framework with all the building blocks to develop a complex web application quickly and affordably.
Vue
Airtight uses Vue.js (also known as Vue) to build website interfaces with dynamic content. Vue is a powerful, flexible tool that can be used to rapidly build a single-page application or a complex web application. Vue is open source software, meaning that we can use it without licensing fees for our client.
Amazon Web Services
When it comes to hosting websites, the undisputed industry leader is Amazon Web Services (AWS).
