About

Meet Dragos Ispas

Ispas Studio is led by me, Dragos Ispas. I am the lead developer on every project, so when you work with the studio, you work directly with the person writing the code and shaping the site.


With six years of web development experience, I bring the technical skills to build sites that are fast, maintainable, and ready for you to own after launch, without handoffs to juniors or a chain of account managers.


What you get:

  • Clean, clear design

    Design that sharpens the message. Your copy stays readable and front-and-center, never buried under decoration.

  • Best-in-class performance

    Astro-powered sites built for speed. The fastest stack for websites, with SEO that benefits from it.

  • Ongoing support

    Need a change after launch? You get quick, direct help from me, not a ticket queue.

Approach

Design that serves the message

Built around purpose, clean design, structured content, and speed, on every project.


What that means:

  • Understand the purpose

    Before visuals or features, we lock what the website needs to achieve.

  • Design that lifts the copy

    Design is there to make the words easier to read and trust, not to compete with them.

  • Content as a structure

    Pages pull from organised content. Update once, reuse cleanly.

  • Performance as part of the product

    Visitors feel it, and search engines reward it.

Process

From first call to ongoing care

Purpose and direction first. Then build, launch, and stay supported.

Start a conversation
  1. 01

    Kickoff

    We clarify what the site is for, who it must reach, and what success looks like. Scope and timeline get written down early, usually in one focused call.

  2. 02

    Direction

    You share existing brand and the sentiment you want. Structure and design direction come next, so we agree on the system before heavy build.

  3. 03

    Design & build

    Structure first, then visual system, then implementation. You review real pages in short cycles, not abstract decks.

  4. 04

    Launch

    Launch checklist, content ownership, analytics setup, and a clean codebase you can run day one.

  5. 05

    Support

    Basic Care starts after launch: hosting health, stack updates, and break-fixes. If more than maintenance is needed later, a custom plan is scoped around that need.

Pricing

Starting points, not fixed quotes

Every client is different. These packages show typical scope and starting estimates. The real number is confirmed once the brief is clear. Care keeps the site maintained after launch.

Talk scope

Care · 35€/mo is required with every site. Hosting health, stack updates, and break-fixes so nothing silently fails. You edit content in Sanity yourself. Need me applying updates, or design and structural changes over time? We set a custom plan when that need is real, not as a menu of retainers up front.

FAQs

Popular questions

Who is Ispas Studio for?

Founders, consultants, and small teams who need a professional website, and prefer a calm, senior collaborator over a large agency roster.

What is a CMS?

A content management system is the admin behind the site, where text, images, and pages get updated without touching code. Every Ispas build includes Sanity set up so content stays editable after launch.

What is Astro?

Astro is the framework used to build the site. Used properly, it is the fastest stack for websites: light on JavaScript by default, strong for content sites, calm to load. That speed is a product choice, not an afterthought.

Why not Squarespace or WordPress?

Templates and plugins get a site online fast, but they often fight custom structure, slow down over time, and lock design into themes. Astro + Sanity keeps the site lean, the content model intentional, and the stack owned. That holds up better when the site needs to stay clear as the business grows.

How long does a typical website take?

A focused landing page can land in a few weeks. A full website usually takes several weeks depending on content readiness and revision rounds. Timeline is locked in during kickoff.

Can you work with an existing brand?

Yes. Bring your logo, colors, and voice. They get translated into a restrained web system that feels premium without looking generic.

What happens after launch?

You own the site. Sanity is set up so you can edit content yourself. Care (35€/mo) is required for hosting health, stack updates, and break-fixes. If more than maintenance is needed later (content applied for you, or ongoing design and structure work), a custom plan is scoped around that.
