We’ve helped so many companies grow since our studio started out, but we want to put our skills and experience to a different, more effective use.

It feels like a really important moment to actually fight back and it also feels like an important moment to focus on skilling people up to do that.
We’re trying a rather radical new approach at Piccalilli by doing real world projects — for real clients — in the open. This gives us a context to provide genuine high quality, real world education for free at the point of entry.
We need your support to do free projects for good causes and publish free high quality education

This was a very fun project for us!
We've launched a new page that outlines what we're trying to do with open working projects and importantly, *why* we're doing it.

This isn't the internet we want and we're going to do everything to make sure we're making things better, not chasing profit over anything.

If you're looking for help with a project, I really can't recommend Set Studio highly enough.

They're creative, pragmatic and absurdly talented. One of my absolute favourite studios to work with
We've got availability at Set Studio this summer! We're wrapping up some great work which we can't wait to show you, but for now check out some of the stuff we've achieved 👇

If you've got a project idea cooking, we'd love to hear it.

When we say "move fast without breaking things" we mean it. Let us move you *fast* and responsibly!

I haven’t bought a copy of this myself but I know @bell.bz knows his shit (he’s the founder of @set.studio), he’s recently released a CSS course that might be up your alley if you’re happy to throw some money at this itch.

After 15+ years of teaching, architecting & delivering CSS for global organisations & startups, I’ve collated that experience into an extensive course which will take your CSS skills beyond the next level.

Complete CSS has taken nearly a year to produce and it’s officially live 🎉

You'd better hire him for contracts before I do. Everything Robb delivers for @set.studio is beyond top class. He takes all of the stress out of the equation too.
Looks like I'm going to have availability for new contracts from later this month

I've got 15+ years of frontend experience, with an emphasis on interaction & animation. I'm a dab hand with all the usual frameworks like Nuxt, Next and Astro too

If any of that's what you're after, drop me a line 👇

Just grabbed a copy of Complete CSS by @piccalil.li / @set.studio

Despite 15 years in the industry and being more JS/Vue focused nowadays, you can never learn too much about #CSS

Some feedback that's arrived today from a client we've been working with since last year that we've just added to our website set.studio

Sums us up quite well!

We're delighted to be sponsoring @heypresents.com this year. It's one of our all time favourite events and is always top class with great talks, but also great socialising and networking.

Will we see you there?

We're bad at sharing work. Mostly because we literally *can't* a lot of the time, but we're really proud of this refresh.
Our newsletter, The Index has had a full design refresh — root to branch. It’s clearer, easier to subscribe to and a much better reading experience. We’ve also introduced simple, non-intrusive ads to keep Piccalilli sustainable long-term.

Hi, we're Set Studio, and we’re design partners for brands that adapt fast and thrive. We focus all of our effort on one client at a time to produce the best results.

We’ve just redesigned our website to communicate that and how we're probably a better choice than traditional agencies.

We’re still booking for 2025 at @set.studio. This is what we do exceptionally well 👇
need product differentiation?

overhire a #CSS front-end team and ask them to:
- polish whatever
- add delight wherever

and watch as your product becomes smooth and buttery while everyone else's gather dust and crust

UI is a huge space offering differentiation via quality

The response to this going live has absolutely blown my mind, thank you. I put so much into this thing and to see folks in the discord taking so much value from the content makes it all worth it.

To everyone that's already got a copy, thank you so much. It means everything to me 💛

We recently launched Complete CSS, and a lot of people have mentioned that they don’t know how to approach their boss to ask them to pay for it. Here’s an email template for you to help with that.

Though it was only a small part to play, I had a great time working with @set.studio to get this over the line.

It's honestly such a fantastic course and an absolute steal at this price

Today, @bell.bz has launched his Complete CSS course and it looks amazing.

Andy is always the first person I recommend for folks looking for expert-level site-building (he and his @set.studio team are quite literally designing & building a site for one of my best friends right now). Congrats, mate!

Proud to have played a small part in helping @bell.bz bring this course to life alongside the @set.studio team.

I’ve learnt a tonne from Andy. Highly recommend checking the course out.
