Websites — ANTE & Co.
Websites for people with something worth sharing.
We design and build websites for organisations with complex, technical, or content-heavy work, research groups, universities, and technical teams among them. The goal is always the same: make it easier for people to understand what you do.
Selected Work
Websites we've built.
A few of the organisations we've built websites for. Mostly research groups and technical teams, which is where a lot of our experience with this kind of site comes from.
Ecology & Restoration
BRANCH Institute
BRANCH is a nonprofit research institute connecting scientists, practitioners and communities around ecological restoration. As its design and development partner, we built a site that puts new research and the wider network side by side.
Robotics Research, University of Bern
Acoustic Robotics Systems Lab
The website for the Acoustic Robotics Systems Lab at the University of Bern, which engineers ultrasound microrobots and acoustic soft robotics. We built the site and continue to look after its performance and upkeep.

Computer Vision, ETH Zurich
Computer Vision and Geometry Group
The website for ETH Zurich's Computer Vision and Geometry Group. It's organised around the group's research topics, from structure-from-motion to 3D scene understanding, with team, publications, teaching and open positions easy to reach.

Computational Design, ETH Zurich
Computational Design Laboratory
The website for Prof. Bernd Bickel's Computational Design Laboratory at ETH Zurich, working on interactive design, geometry processing and computational fabrication. Recent research leads the homepage, with publications, teaching and the team a click away.

What These Projects Share
The kind of website problems we're comfortable with.
Every project on this page shares a few things in common. If some of these sound familiar, that's usually a good sign.
Information architecture with a lot to hold
01Multiple departments, publications, projects, or audiences on one site, and a real need to keep it navigable rather than let it sprawl.
Technical or research content
02Content that has to stay accurate and specific. We don't smooth it over for the sake of a cleaner-looking page.
More than one audience on the same page
03A specialist checking your standing and someone encountering the subject for the first time often need the same page to work for both.
Custom structures and integrations
04Publication feeds, staff directories, data visualisations, or a CMS structured around how your organisation actually works, not a generic template.
A site that outlasts the handover
05Someone on your team should be able to update the site after we're gone, without calling us for every change.
How We Work
A website should make the work easier to understand.
We care about the outcome, not just the deliverables.
Start with a conversation
We talk through what you do, who the site is for, and what isn't working about the current one. Often the brief is simply a site that looks current and works well on every device, and that's a good place to start.
Shape the sitemap
We map out the pages, keeping what already works and changing what doesn't.
Three homepage directions
We design three different directions for the homepage, and you choose the one that feels right.
The rest of the site
The chosen direction carries through to the remaining pages, shaped together with you.
Built so you can run it
We build on whatever suits you best: usually a CMS your team can edit, or a custom system when that's a better fit. Either way, we show you how to make changes yourself.
Launch and keep improving
After go-live we stay on for support, and keep improving the site as it gets used: performance, fixes, and small changes as they come up.
What We Build With
The tools we reach for.
Most of the websites on this page run on WordPress, customised with ACF and, where it's the right fit, Elementor, so your team can keep making changes after launch without calling us for every update. For more complex platforms we build custom front ends, APIs, and integrations, and increasingly some AI-enabled functionality, where it solves a real problem rather than just being new.
