Divertimenti
Divertimenti has been a cookery shop since the 1960s, selling hand-selected cookware, knives, bakeware, tableware, electricals and coffee equipment. It is a specialist retailer with a deep range and a knowledgeable customer, which is a very different ecommerce problem from a small curated catalogue.View featured work

Bondi Body
Bondi Body was born out of frustration with outdated tools, inconsistent results, and a lack of innovation in hair removal and skin technology. Through years of working directly with skin, owner, Trish saw first-hand how it changes with age, hormones, environment, and lifestyle and recognised a clear gap between professional treatments and what was realistically available for use at home.View featured work
Homeplace

The website is responsive for mobile devices and even makes complex menus easy to use. Shopify’s responsive checkout means that shopping Homeplace’s gorgeous range of products is as easy on the train as it is at home.View featured work

5We worked with Gary to build two Shopify stores. He was super easy to work with and delivered exactly what we were looking for on time. I was especially impressed with the custom product pages he designed for us with limited direction from my end. I highly recommend Design Superheroes, and we'll definitely be coming back for future projects!
