Are you actually a website design studio based in Chicago?

Yes. Homade is headquartered in Chicago, IL, and designs and builds websites from our Chicago studio. The person designing your site is the same person building it, so nothing gets lost in a handoff.

How fast can you design and launch a website?

A Rapid Build ships in 5 to 10 days, discovery to launch. We work in compressed loops with daily Looms so the site lands on the calendar, not the wishlist. Larger custom builds run 3 to 6 weeks.

What is a Rapid Build?

A Rapid Build is a purposeful, conversion-tuned website on a real DO date. Hero, value prop, social proof, CTAs, forms, and analytics, all wired up, with one CMS section so your team can publish from day one. Small enough to ship now, structured enough to grow.

Do you work with Chicago businesses specifically, or is it remote-only?

Both. We design sites for Chicago operators and for teams across the US. Local clients can meet in person; remote clients get the same DO/DUE-date cadence, daily Looms, and a real human responsible from day one.

What platform do you design and build on?

We design and build on Webflow so your team can edit the site without a developer. We can also migrate an existing site to Webflow, bringing the content over and rebuilding the structure cleanly.

Can my team edit the site after launch?

Yes. Every build ships with a 30-minute walkthrough, a short Loom, and a written runbook. You launch the site and you can run the site, including publishing to the CMS section without touching code.

Can the site grow into a larger custom build later?

Yes. A Rapid Build is structured to grow. When you are ready, we extend it into a full custom Webflow site with a deeper CMS, custom interactions, and more pages, without starting from scratch.

What does a website design project cost?

Rapid Builds start at a fixed project rate. Custom builds are scoped after a brief discovery. We give you an honest read on timeline and budget within one business day. No retainer required to get a quote.
