Hammersmith is offices rather than high street, which means most briefs here arrive with a brand review, an accessibility requirement and an internal system to connect to.
The commercial character here is driven by employers rather than shops, and that changes what a project involves. Work for a larger organisation rarely fails on the build. It fails on everything around it: sign-off that takes three weeks, a brand team with opinions, an IT department with requirements, and nobody quite owning the content.
So the parts that matter are the unglamorous ones. A written scope that survives contact with a review committee. Accessibility built in rather than retrofitted, because an audit that fails late is expensive. Documentation good enough that the person who inherits the site in two years can work out what it does.
The other thing larger organisations need more than they expect is a site their marketing team can genuinely run. The commonest failure we are asked to fix is a corporate site where every meaningful change requires a developer — which is almost always a content modelling decision made badly at the start rather than a limitation of the platform.
