The Company.
We are a talented and friendly agency who provide bespoke design and development for web and print.
Calling ourselves an agency doesn’t mean massive mark-ups and impersonal service. We treat every client and project individually and create a solution tailored to your exact needs and requirements.
Whether it’s a personal blog, booking system or e-commerce store, we strive to create results that reflect your ideas and ambitions. We are a small business too and we know how important it is to get things right.
A bunch of geeks keen to impress with our technical and creative superpowers, we are fully up to date with the latest web standards and technologies. We love a challenge and love to show off with distinctive design and nifty coding.
That’s one of the reasons why we will never pass your project off to another agency or subcontractor. We don’t bite off more than we can chew, you might say. Along with the two founding fathers, Chris and David, Papertank has a small crew of talented people with a range of specialist skills who can help bring your ideas to life.
We commit ourselves to achieving the results you want within the estimated timeframe and budget. No nasty surprises.
Don’t just take our word for it, see what our clients say about us.
The Brains.
David Rushton - Coder Monkey
Programming fanatic with a Computing Science degree from the University of Glasgow, David is the definitive computer geek. And yes, he is an online gamer.
Also being an enterprising chap himself, David understands the passion people have for their own business and ideas. He genuinely believes that whatever the idea, it can work on the web.
David is an experienced web developer with an advanced technical background. He is fluent in HTML, CSS, PHP, Javascript to name a few and has worked with a variety of software packages and applications (see details).
Chris Baldie - Maker of pretty pictures
A self-proclaimed comic book geek, Chris is the lead designer at Papertank. He graduated with a BA (with distinction) in Digital Art and had built up a strong portfolio before co-founding Papertank. Chris is overflowing with creativity and extremely pernickety - which he tells us is a good thing.
His approach mixes solid design with an appreciation for web functionality and the needs of your business. His flair for design will lend a unique perspective to your project.
It’s not all work, work, work; Chris also writes his own online comic.
