Working with Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace's commercial core is the Triangle, a tight knot of Church Road, Westow Hill and Westow Street that holds most of the area's independent shops, bars and cafés. D'Solo's has run a clothing boutique on Church Road since 1999, Coconut Trading has sold world crafts from the same road since 2000, and Picture Palace has been framing and selling prints from Westow Street since 1979. Crow on Hill bookshop on Westow Street has been open seven days a week since 1997, and Blue Door Bicycles runs a workshop out of Central Hill. The economy is small-unit and footfall-driven — the trade mostly follows the up-and-over-the-hill foot traffic from Crystal Palace station and the surrounding streets of Upper Norwood and Gipsy Hill.
Every Crystal Palace site is hand-coded, mobile-first, and shipped on its own domain. There's nothing for you to maintain — hosting, SSL, backups, updates and small content edits are all in the £25/month plan. You'll deal directly with me from brief to launch, by email or WhatsApp, in plain English.
