THE BACK ROOM

We keep shop
at night.

Thornbury is a small web studio in Singapore. We build for the hours when you can't be at the counter — which, for a website, is most of them.

Every shop we admire has the same habit: the lights stay on longer than they strictly should. The kopitiam that does its last wipe-down at two. The tailor who answers the door after hours because the suit's needed Saturday. That's the standard we build websites to — not louder, not trendier: still open when it matters.

So we build by hand, we test on phones before desktops, and we hand over everything when it's done. No lock-in, no retainer you didn't ask for, no mystery hosting bill. Your site should work for you at 3am without asking anyone's permission — including ours.

Built by hand

No page-builder soup. Every site is written for the shop it serves, light enough to fly on a hawker-centre connection.
Phones first

Your customers find you from a phone, late. We design that screen first and let desktops enjoy the leftovers.
You own everything

Files, hosting, keys — handed over at the end, every time. If we disappeared tomorrow, your shop stays open.
Real pictures

Licensed photography or your actual shop — never stock smiles, never fake faces. If it isn't true, it isn't on the site.

A lit food-court counter at night in Singapore — staff behind the glass, a customer waiting, the walkway dark around it. — Tanjong Pagar, after the dinner rush — the counter still answering.

That's the whole pitch. If it sounds like your kind of shop —

Come say hello
