We searched high & low for a professional, efficient & creative website design company with the number one criteria they had to fulfil being ... we didn't want to hear them say "that can't be done" ... and bingo, we found that in spades with Mark, John & his team at Flametree Creative. Right from the start, in initial discussions with Mark & John about what we wanted and how we would be constantly developing/expanding the site as we grew, Flametree Creative were right behind us and took on the challenge of never saying ... No. Then we were introduced to Grace (website designer/coding guru) to

I chose FTC because I liked Flametrees. It was a decision based on pure instinct.
Today, to plagiarise the thoughts of a great wordsmith, there is a lot of sound and fury, signifying nothing and it assaults our senses every day. Perhaps I was making a mistake. Yet the atmosphere at Flametree Creative is exactly the opposite. From the serene entry courtyard to the decision-making table, there is calm and quiet intelligence. I knew, instinctively, that my book was in good hands. Thank you, John Douglass and Flametree Creative

My company, Economic Transitions, has had the absolute pleasure of working with John, Hugh, Grace and the team at Flametree since the company started. We had worked with John in his previous business and keen to remain a client. Their creative output is innovative and together they have the ability to provide concepts which are artistically and visually appealing. They are exceptionally easy to work with, absolutely delightful and approach each job professionally.

I recently had the pleasure of working with the Flame Tree team again. A great bunch of folks to deal with, Professional in every manner, got the brief and delivered the brief in the time frame requested on our most recent project. No matter how large or small the job is, it will receive the same professional approach. You'd be mad to pass by these guys!
