CMX Web Design · Padstow, Cornwall
Your website,
drawn to life.
I am Charlie. I draw one-of-a-kind websites for small businesses, one line at a time. This page is building itself as you scroll.
What I do
I draw the website your competitors hope you never get.
One person, one pencil, no templates. Every site starts as a sketch on the bench at half six in the morning, because a template cannot start there. For small businesses that want a shop window worth stopping at.
The work
From a sketch to the real thing.
Each site below began as a wireframe on paper. Scroll, and watch it resolve into the live site, the way it did in the studio. These are real, shipped, and in the register.

Real client · hospitality
The Neighbourhood, Penryn
A wine bar in a Victorian sail loft. The palette came off the room: cream, timber, wine. High-contrast serif over interior photography. View the live site.

Our own line · logged like a client's
cmxwd.com, version three
Our last site, a dark drawing-sheet with a cyan path that drew itself down the page. This build had to clear it in the register before it could ship.

The studio · cmxwd.com
The site you would get
The same hands, the same standard. Every project is drawn from scratch, checked against the log, and built by one person from first call to launch.
Type and colour
The claim and the proof are the same thing.
Every site gets its own voice and its own palette. Not picked from a menu. Composed, and pulled from the real world.
The voice
Drawn
with intent
The palette, pulled from a photograph
The register
No two of my sites share an identity.
Five identity choices per site, written down. A new design that matches any line on two of them goes back to the board. The check runs before you ever see a direction.
Our own sites are logged like everyone else's. Trustpilot.

The collision test
Pick any two. Count the repeats.
The page compares all five choices, live. The guarantee is not a promise. It is a check that runs.
