Websites Built
to Perform.
Alpine Studio is a web design studio based in Queenstown, Central Otago. We specialise in building websites for New Zealand trade and service businesses — the kind of operators who are excellent at their craft, but haven't yet had a website that properly reflects that.
We started this studio after watching too many good NZ businesses — plumbers, builders, cafes, clinics — lose customers to competitors with nothing but a better-looking website. There's a real gap between the quality of their work and the quality of their online presence. We exist to close it.
- Bespoke design — zero templates
- Performance-first development
- Strategic, not just aesthetic
- Long-term partnerships, not transactions

Why Alpine Studio
Built Different.
Built Different.
By Design.
We're not an agency running 40 projects at once. We're a focused studio that takes on fewer clients to deliver more. That's a deliberate choice — and it shows in the work.
Focus Over Volume
We limit our client roster intentionally. Your project gets our full attention — not a junior account manager and a template.
Strategy Before Pixels
Every visual decision is grounded in research. We solve the underlying business problem, then design the solution around it.
Performance is Non-Negotiable
Speed, accessibility, and technical precision are built in from day one — not patched on at the end.
Ongoing Care, Monthly
Monthly plans cover your domain, hosting, and site maintenance — your site stays fast, secure, and up to date without you lifting a finger.
Fixed scope. No surprise invoices.
Milestone approvals before we build.
Ongoing support available post-launch.
You own everything we build. Always.
Transparent.
