Studio Almond

Studio Almond is a class act; they have supported my firm through various website iterations and pieces of development work; proud to be associated with a home-grown New Zealand brand of such calibre! "

We started working with Studio Almond in 2024 after having a challenging experience with the agency who originally built our 3 websites.Since taking over, Studio Almond have provided incredible service with great communication, as well as providing valuable counsel on short-term optimisations and long-term strategy.They've got us out of a few sticky situations swiftly too.I'd highly recommend the team at Studio Almond - good people doing good work. "

We’ve worked with Studio Almond for many years now - from initially helping us deliver an award-winning Shopify Plus website to partnering with them on ongoing optimisations that continue to elevate our ecommerce experience.What sets Studio Almond apart is the standard they hold themselves to. They work with integrity, transparency, and a genuine commitment to excellence. At BLUNT, we value technical craft and engineering precision just as much as beautiful design and a meaningful customer experience, and Studio Almond shares that same mindset - never compromising one for the other in their approach to web design and development. That value alignment drew us to them from the start and remains one of the main reasons we continue to work together.What really makes it such a pleasure to work with them though, is that they’re just genuinely great humans, doing great work. We couldn’t recommend them more! "

Studio Almond are in a league of their own when it comes to Shopify and Shopify Plus. They balance strong design with deep technical capability, without forcing the usual compromise between rigid themes or costly custom builds.They transformed our site into a considered, customer-led digital experience that truly reflects our brand and supports growth. Their Roadmap app allows us to grow functionality without comprises, making retainers more sustainable for our business.We look forward to continuing the partnership with Alex, Mon and the team. "

Studio Almond really raise the bar for Shopify and Shopify Plus agencies in Australasia. They really understand the consumer and how to craft a customer-led brand experience with Shopify.With most Shopify agencies, you generally get design-strong OR dev-strong which means you need to find someone else to fill the gap on either end. And then you generally also have to pick between customising an out-of-the-box theme or custom built theme, the former can limit brands, the latter often requires significant investment that isn't ideal for growing brands without big box capital. Studio Almond gave us the best of all worlds.Before Studio Almond, we had a clunky custom built site that created operational and commercial limitations -- not great for a rapidly growing business.Studio Almond went above and beyond to deliver a beautiful new digital experience (I say digital experience because it's not just a website) that really aligned with our new brand and business direction. They really knocked the brief out of the park, and in record time too. We couldn't be happier with our new radical site and look forward to future partnership with Alex, Mon and the team. "
