CreativeTechnologyStudio
Small team. Few clients. Long-term relationships.
Friendly Faces is a three-person studio. We build digital products for Dutch SMBs — websites, web apps, infrastructure, and everything in between.
We work differently than an agency. No account managers, no sales layers, no project-and-go. You work directly with the people building your work. And usually, we collaborate for many years, not just one.
What we do
- Long-term relationshipsOur longest client relationships have been ongoing for years. Usually, it starts with one project, then the web app, scaling, the campaign. We stay, and we grow together.
- One team for everythingDesign, code, strategy, and infrastructure — all within our three-person studio. No referrals, no overseas subcontractors, no rotating teams.
- Direct contact with the makersNo account managers, no sales layers. You work directly with the people building your work — from the first conversation long after delivery.
- Involved after launchMaintenance, ongoing development, continuous collaboration. A launch is not the end for us but a starting point — the relationship only gets serious after delivery.
What we don’t do
- No templates or shortcutsNo templates, no page builders, no Wix-style shortcuts. Everything we create is custom-built — because it behaves that way, too.
- No sales pitchesNo sales talks without first understanding your problem. We don’t do pitches; we do introductions. First listening, then proposing.
- No autopilot workNo projects we don't truly stand behind. We say 'no' more often than 'yes' — because a wrong project helps no one.
- No hard deadlinesNo project-and-go mentality. We consider the relationship serious only after delivery — a launch is a starting point, not the end.
How we work
Multidisciplinary
One team for design, code, strategy, and infrastructure. No handoffs, no noise — just people who speak multiple languages.
Direct
You always talk to the people building your project. We're not big enough for middlemen — and we don’t want to be.
Honest
We say what we think. If something’s off, we say so. Even when it’s difficult — and even if it means letting a project go.
Personal
We take on few clients. That’s intentional. Adding a client often means one too many — and we want to give every project the attention it deserves.
Three people, one studio.
No account managers, no middlemen. You work with these three.
Elmar
Founder & Creative Technologist
Guides projects from initial concept to delivery. Designs, codes, and ensures everything fits. Prefers working where design meets technology.
Dylan
Developer
Builds the complex stuff. Frontend, backend, and everything underneath. Writes the code the rest of the studio relies on.
Davy
Operations
Keeps everything running. From planning and client contact to infrastructure and deployment. Makes sure we can focus on the work.

“
We take what’s in your head and bring it to the world. Not tied to one medium. Not limited to one craft. Only focused on making things that deserve to exist.
