What our client said:

Prisca loves making brilliant websites. She’s not content to simply fulfil a client brief, she isn’t totally satisfied until her work is the best it can possibly be. As a client on this project, I knew I didn’t have to worry about anything, all I had to do was make a few basic decisions and provide content, Prisca did the rest. Prisca is a brilliant graphic designer who knows how to code websites to a high standard. This combination of skills is unusual and it means that she has a total vision for what a website could be. The Talk Web Design website is a great example of her creativity.
