OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire Codium to accomplish?

• We delivered the project from branding and UX/UI to advanced implementation. The goal was an ultra-fast website, so we opted for a Headless CMS (Astro + Storyblok). As a result, the site runs lightning-fast and achieves top, green scores in Google PageSpeed Insights
• Create a modern, professional website that reflects our architectural studio’s brand and visual identity.
• Develop a responsive website that would help strengthen our online presence and support client acquisition.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Before working with Codium, we didn't have a website at all, so we were starting practically from scratch. I absolutely love how the finished site looks visually—it’s exactly what I envisioned, and perhaps even better! The implemented live editor in Storyblok is a huge convenience for me, especially since I had previously only dealt with CMS platforms like WordPress, which didn't meet my expectations. What’s more, the Codium team promised right from the start that the PageSpeed score would be above 90, and they kept their word. I know they take their commitments seriously, which is why I can wholeheartedly recommend them as an excellent business partner.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We delivered uncompromising performance, hitting green scores in the 90-100 range on Google PageSpeed Insights. The transition to Astro and Storyblok, combined with an optimized user interface, drastically boosted loading times and SEO.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The project was managed very efficiently, with clear and easy communication throughout the entire process. The Codium team was responsive, flexible, and open to our feedback, which was particularly important to us as we paid a lot of attention to visual details and wanted the final result to accurately reflect the character of our architectural studio. Whenever we requested changes or refinements, they responded quickly and worked with us to find the right solution. We especially appreciated their patience and willingness to fine-tune individual elements until we were fully satisfied with the result. Overall, the cooperation was smooth and well organized, and we felt that our needs and feedback were genuinely taken into account throughout the project.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What impressed us most was their ability to understand our vision and translate it into a digital form that genuinely reflects the character of our architectural studio. As architects, we are very detail-oriented and place great importance on aesthetics, proportions, typography, and the overall visual experience. The Codium team understood this approach very well. They were open to our ideas, but at the same time contributed their own expertise and proposed solutions that improved the final result. We particularly appreciated their attention to detail, flexibility, and willingness to refine the project until it felt right for our brand.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Codium could have done differently?

One area that could be improved is the onboarding for independent website management. We had a handover call explaining how to use and edit the website, which we appreciated, but we feel it could have been a little more detailed and structured. A more comprehensive walkthrough of the CMS, covering the most common editing scenarios and showing where specific elements and settings can be found, would have made it easier for us to manage the website independently after launch. A short written or video guide to refer back to later would also be very helpful. This is a relatively minor area for improvement and does not change our overall very positive experience with the cooperation and the final result.

To sum up - codium.studio is the type of people who will simply do everything they can. And if they can't do something, they will too. They implemented websites, two CRM systems, logotypes and many other projects related to both technical automation and creative image identification. So I have no doubt that codium studio perfectly adapts to the client's needs, offering a wide range of technological, programming and graphic services.
