Le Belle Arti
Luxury furniture and lighting showroom, Edmonton and Calgary. A full catalogue across sixty design houses with category and brand architecture, filtering by room, brand and availability, a specifier quote list, a contract library and online purchasing.
Orli, operations software for Le Belle Arti
A custom web application that runs the business from lead to delivery: pipeline, quoting, sales orders, purchasing, invoice tracking and inventory, with roles, discount approvals and an audit trail. Built to replace a paper binder and a spreadsheet without losing either one's certainty.
Services
Design. Build. Run.
Four things we build, and one way we keep them running. Start with the one you need; they are made to connect.
Websites and eCommerce
Custom WordPress and WooCommerce. Brochure sites, portfolios, booking sites, and large catalogues with category hierarchy, product data, filtering, quoting and checkout.
Software and internal tools
Custom web applications built around how your business actually runs: sales pipeline, quoting, orders, purchasing, inventory, with roles and approvals. The spreadsheet and the binder, replaced by one shared system you own.
AI automation
Practical systems for the work that happens between the website and the sale: inquiry and quote handling, missed call text back, review requests, follow up with past customers, and the admin that eats your week.
Search and AI visibility
Technical SEO done properly, plus the newer question: how ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI describe your category, and whether you are the business they name. Measured monthly, improved deliberately.
Hosting and care
Everything we build, we can run: fast Canadian hosting, updates, backups, security and small changes, handled monthly. Plans for static sites, WordPress and WooCommerce.
Websites and software
What are you building?
Showrooms, interior designers, trades, clinics, professional services and more. The industry matters less than what the thing has to do.
An internal tool
Pipeline, quotes, orders, purchasing, inventory, approvals. One shared system for the team, with the right people seeing the right things.
A catalogue or online store
Hundreds of products, categories and variants, brand pages, trade pricing, quote lists and checkout. Structured so it can be managed without a developer.
A brochure or portfolio site
A clear, fast site that says what you do, shows your work and makes it easy to get in touch.
A booking driven site
For businesses where the calendar is the business: salons, clinics, studios and services. Real booking, not a contact form pretending to be one.
A rebuild
A site that has stopped working for you, rebuilt and moved properly. Content, rankings and accounts carried over, nothing lost.
AI automation
What automation looks like in practice.
We map how work actually moves through your business first, then automate only the parts that are costing you time or customers. Three examples.
A quote request lands. The right person gets it, with everything they need.
Captured from the website, acknowledged to the customer immediately, routed to the right salesperson with the details already filled in. No inbox digging, no double entry.
Showrooms · Designers · ServicesA missed call becomes a text conversation and a booked visit.
The caller gets a text from your number within a minute, in your words. A short back and forth captures the need, and the job lands in your calendar. Call the demo line and watch it happen.
Trades · Clinics · Any business that misses callsReview requests and check ins, sent on time, every time.
A review request goes out a set number of days after the work is complete. Past customers hear from you at the right moment, responsibly and in compliance with Canadian anti spam law.
Every business with repeat customersBuilt on tools in your name. Everything can be measured, and in week one we measure your own numbers before anything is sold on them.
Talk through an automationStudio
A small studio, on purpose.
You deal with one person from the first conversation to the launch and after it. No account managers, no handoffs. Every project is quoted as a fixed scope before it starts, never by the hour.
You own everything
Your website, your domain, your accounts and your data are in your name from day one. WordPress without lock in. Leave any time and take it all with you.
One direct partner
The person who designs your site is the person who answers your email. Strategy, build, automation and hosting stay connected.
Built in Edmonton
In person when it helps, remote when it does not. Canadian hosting, Canadian dollars, clients across the country.
Clear at every step
Four steps, in order: understand, design, build, improve. You see and approve each one before the next starts.

Tell us what you are building.
A new site. A catalogue nobody can manage. A rebuild. Hours lost every week to repetitive admin. Describe it in a sentence or two and you will hear back from Ivan, not a form robot.
