Brand & web design for startups, idea to launch in 4-6 weeks
Quartz Fabrications: from "how much for Calacatta?" to "you're booked".
The business: an owner-led quartz worktop fabricator in Lancashire. A small team that templates, fabricates and fits across West Lancashire, Merseyside and Greater Manchester. (A concept rebrand I'm pitching to a real client).
The quirks:
Enquiries arrive by phone and DM while the owner is on site, so quotes get written at night
Customers can't picture a 10cm swatch as a 3m island, so jobs stall in sample requests
Templating only works once base units are fitted. Book too early and the templater loses half a day
Every quote needs layout, sizes, cut-outs, stone and readiness: 5+ messages before anything gets booked
What I built (the problem I solved): customers see their stone on a 3D kitchen, get an instant estimate and book a visit they're actually ready for, so the owner never chases details or quotes just to get a booking.
Customer side:
Visualise: 18 real stones mapped onto a live 3D kitchen. Change layout and sizes and it updates instantly
Estimate: layout, measurements, upstands and cut-outs give an instant guide price
Readiness: "Are your base units fitted?" Yes offers templating slots, Not yet offers a Saturday showroom visit. No wasted visits
Book: real slots, double-booking protection, calendar invite, and a self-serve reschedule/cancel link
Owner side:
Every booking arrives as a complete job brief: stone, every measurement, worktop area, estimate, readiness, postcode, optional kitchen photo
Automated reminder timeline, one-click completed/no-show
Block a "fitting day" in one click and it disappears from customer booking
Before: 5+ messages and the risk of a wasted templating visit. After: booked in about 90 seconds, with nothing to chase.
Built in Lovable alongside my own brand identity for Quartz Fabrications.

Concept project. Not the official Quartz Fabrications website. Another Mother are launching some new products for the summer and I thought Kittl would be the perfect place to generate the imagery for the launch. Had tonnes of fun creating these for this awesome sustainable jewellery brand.
