Why work with me?

I run a business called Invisible Building. It's a web design company with ten plus years in the industry. Outside of entrepreneurship I spent 3 and a half years as a developer focused on email marketing at one of Northern Ireland's biggest e-commerce shops. I love design, research and working on new ideas.

I worked with David during my time at Chain Reaction Cycles on the Email Marketing team. While working with David, what truly stood out about him was his constant curiosity and drive to experiment with new ideas. In a rapidly changing tech landscape, David always showcased a proactive attitude, delving into the latest in design and technology.

Coder Dojo / CRC

Emma Foster

I have known David Shawe for around 9 years and we first met when volunteering at Coder Dojo in Farset Labs Belfast. This was my first time volunteering at Coder Dojo and I think Davids also. We hit it off straight away with similar experience in Web Design and Web Development. It was a lot of fun working with David and mentoring the kids, due to his hard work, experience, initiative, and design flair he created an online website for the students to learn how to develop their own websites. I moved roles to Chain Reaction Cycles and after a few weeks we were on the lookout for someone with UX design and development experience and I knew David would be the perfect fit. Working seamlessly within a larger design team, actively bringing new ideas, and working hard to implement these ideas with team members. David has been a pleasure to work with and know, becoming a good friend over the years.

Werewolf Food Video FAQs

Werewolf Food

Werewolf Food genuinely values our customers and as such we wanted to create helpful FAQ videos. Not just a generic style but bespoke to us. David Shawe took our mock ups and turned them into useful ‘how-to’ videos, demonstrating to the customer how simple it was for them to make changes to their account, e.g., change the frequency of their delivery or update card payment details. The format was suitable for both web and social media content. Invisible Building made the technical solution of the FAQ videos fit the personality of the business.

Entrance CDS

David Shawe was such an amazing help during a tricky situation we had found ourselves in when we were changing host and the new host was not as helpful as advertised! David worked as long as he needed to to get us back up and running again and at super speed.

Working with Irish Artist Ann Feely

Ann Feely Artist Shopify Work

It has been great working with David Shawe, of Invisible Building. David fixed some technical issues with my Shopify website. He also undertook a design review of the customer experience in my new website. In particular, David understood what I was trying to communicate in my website which is always a positive thing before we had even met face to face. Therefore I found his email communication style to be precise and helpful. I've always found working with people face to face, phone calls and via email to be the most effective and efficient way in dealing with people in the creative arts business. I recommend Invisible Building when you need quick and effective assistance with your shopify website.
