This project grew from years of sunrise walks, swims in calm morning water and a deep appreciation for the quiet beauty of Huskisson. As a Shoalhaven based family, we wanted to create something that reflects the way this place truly feels — calm, refined and close to nature. We’re not a large corporation; this is a personal project shaped by lived experience.
Scandinavian design principles, sustainable choices and thoughtful architecture have guided every decision. The result is a boutique collection of homes that balance simplicity, softness and coastal clarity — created by people who love this shoreline and understand its rhythm.
Coastal living, distilled to its purest form.

It is with sadness that we must imminently bid our studio administrator adieu. For 6 years Megan has been the glue in our organisation, the PB&J in our sandwich, the bubbles in our champagne. For our clients, I`m sure they will feel as bereft as we will. But, with each cloud, there`s a silver lining. A great opportunity is now open at Handmade Web & Design to be a lynchpin and join a fun, warm, hard-working team at a life-friendly employer. Please share with those who you think might be a good fit!
DIGITAL MARKETING / Tools such as Google AI Overviews and ChatGPT are changing the role of your website.
In many cases, the early research phase is now being handled by AI. This means when someone lands on your website, they’re more informed, more intentional, and much closer to making a decision.
We’ve unpacked what this shift means for your website – and your business as a whole – and how you can take advantage of this new state of play.

We recently launched a new website for @ruhwollongong – a growing Illawarra cafe brand built on connection, community and a genuine love of coffee.
With branding already established, our role was to translate the soul of RÜH into a digital experience. An expressive, hand-drawn illustration style became central to the design direction, helping to create a site that feels warm, human and distinctly different – much like the cafes themselves.
Subtle animation, custom icons and layered video content bring the experience to life, while maintaining a sense of ease and clarity for users. The result is a website that balances personality with performance.
From a functionality perspective, the site is designed to support both customers and the business as it continues to grow. Users can easily find locations, book a table, order online via Bopple, purchase gift cards and shop merchandise – all within a seamless experience.
RÜH has built something special across its four locations – and this website reflects that. Thoughtful, considered and grounded in what matters most: people.

Berry’s very own local celebrity and all-round good boy, Alfie, dropped by the office today.
We’re not entirely sure if he was here to brief us on a new design or website project – something in the adventure or local exploration space, perhaps – but he certainly made himself right at home.
The timing was a little… suspicious. Right on lunchtime.
