About us
Blue Canvas is a web design company with a fresh diverse approach to online application development and marketing. We specialise in providing complete website and IT solutions for small and medium sized businesses and organisations.
Set in Bristol, England, a city known for housing Europe's "Silicon Valley", we at Blue Canvas are ready to welcome our clients and discuss your requirements either at our own premises, at a regional location convenient to you, or via phone and email.
Blue Canvas was created by three like minded individuals with different yet complimenting skill sets coming from three completely different backgrounds to form a cohesive and successful design, development and marketing team. We bring fresh and friendly design capabilities along with over qualified development skills and cutting edge online and offline marketing techniques and procedures.
This streamlined team has access to highly skilled freelance and contract designers and developers allowing us to scale our team to suit any project as well as allowing us to offer a much wider range of design and development expertise while at the same time making sure we offer highly price competitive solutions.
The Team
James - Project Manager
James joined the team most recently bringing 10 years of online and offline marketing experience. He has worked with several highly successful Web Design companies through the years and has seen the success and potential of the team at Blue Canvas, so jumped on board.
james@bluecanvas.co.ukLuigi - Lead Designer
Born in a small town in the south of Italy on the Adriatic Sea, his first approach to the design was at the age of four trying to design the perfect pebble for skipping in the water. His love for the sea made him design a water -proof paper boat at the age of seven and he has been sailing on and on since then.
Luigi arrived on the shores of Bristol with a glowing tan and has since spent the majority of time devoted to delivering perfectionist designs. He no longer has the tan. But still has his boat!
David - Lead Developer
There is much speculation as to the origins of our Lead Developer. The commonplace rumour is that half his genetic structure was actually provided by one of the earlier x86's.
Operating with more megahertz than you've had hot dinners, Dave is a lean, mean, blazing logic machine and remains the only person so far to have successfully replaced sleep with an efficient PHP algorithm.
Joe - Director
Founder and pioneer of Blue Canvas, Joe has been working in the world of the web since an early age growing up together with the dawn of the internet age.
This has developed a strong understanding of the potential of any business' online growth.
