Web design in Napier

Working with Dardo from Napier

Dardo is a three-person design studio in Bogotá, Colombia, led by its founder, Nicolás Cerón. We work with companies in Napier remotely: there is no Dardo office in Napier. Calls happen on video, in English or Spanish, and everything we agree goes into a written proposal.

Bogotá keeps UTC−5 all year, with no daylight saving time. Napier is 18 hours ahead of Bogotá in January and 17 hours ahead of Bogotá in July, so a nine-to-five day in Napier shares 0 working hours with a nine-to-five day in Bogotá.

A project starts with a brief through the contact form, by email to hello@dardo.studio or on WhatsApp. Nicolás replies within one business day with the questions that set the scope. The proposal that follows lists the scope, deliverables, assumptions, exclusions, payment stages, a timeline and the people doing the work, by name.

Quotes are in US dollars, per scope, with no minimum budget. Pricing explains how a quote is built.

How fast websites in New Zealand are on phones

In October 2026, 52% of the websites in New Zealand measured by Chrome's user experience report passed all three Core Web Vitals on phones, according to the HTTP Archive. The platform behind a site moves that number:

Speed comes from how a site is built more than from the platform. We build on Webflow, Framer, Astro and Next.js and check Core Web Vitals before launch. The platform speed report has the same numbers for other countries.
