We’re Jolora — founded in 2009 by wife & husband duo Laura and Joe Spurling — a studio blending strategy, design, and development into clear, useful products.
We bring strategy, design, and development together under one roof. Small on purpose, senior by default, and collaborative to our core. Every project is overseen by co‑director Joe to keep our standards high and your outcomes sharp.
Book a discovery meetingOur Key Traits
Focused
Specialists where it counts; for everything else, we bring in the right people at the right time.
Streamlined
Remote-first, low overheads, no outside investment — sustainable and steady since day one.
Uncompromising
We don’t bend on two things: quality and accessibility.
Deeply loyal
We choose our clients carefully and stick around. Many have worked with us for a decade or more.
Accessibility
In the early days our tagline was the thrilling “accessible websites.” Not catchy, but true.
We do more than websites now, but accessibility still sits at the heart of our work. It’s not just a social good or legal tick‑box; it’s good business. Why limit access to what you offer?
Accessible
practices
Accessible service design, accessible interfaces, accessible technologies.
Accessible guidelines and statements
Clear, compliant statements tailored to your site.
WCAG
compliance
The nitty‑gritty: colour contrast, type sizes, keyboard nav, and more.
Track Record
Since 2009, we've worked with organisations in both the private and public sectors in the UK and elsewhere.
We've built online marketplaces for European construction initiatives, fundraising platforms in the Middle East, healthcare SaaS, and portals for UK hospitality — to list only a few. We typically partner with two or three clients at a time, for engagements from two weeks to six months, and beyond.
Our Values
Long-lasting relationships
Partnerships over projects. Built on trust, results, and mutual benefit. Some clients have stayed with us for 15+ years.
Sustainability
We keep our footprint low and our hosting lean. Fun fact: this page uses around 0.04g of CO₂.
Constant improvement
We’re always levelling up — skills, processes, and services. Every project teaches us something new.
K.I.S.S.
Simple beats clever. Clarity in design and comms keeps projects focused and effective.
Quality over speed
Great work takes time. We prioritise quality over speed — and still hit deadlines.
Evidence-based decision making
Less gut feel, more good data. We base decisions on research and evidence.
