About us

Good things, made with care.

Tova Designs is a small Christchurch studio with two people at its heart — one who designs, one who engineers — and a shared belief that the way you do the work matters as much as the work itself.

( 01 ) Our story

We started Tova because too many good businesses were being let down by websites that looked nice but didn't work — or worked but didn't feel like them.

Between us we bring years of experience in UX, web design and branding, alongside programming, network engineering and the kind of problem-solving that keeps a site fast, secure and reliable. [Add a few lines here about how you met, what you did before Tova, and the moment you decided to start.]

We work from Ōtautahi Christchurch, close to the bays and harbours of Banks Peninsula that shape so much of how we see things: calm, open, full of light.

( 02 ) Our name

Tova means good.

We chose it because it's simple, and because it's what we hope people say about working with us. We take our cue from light and water: light makes things clear, water brings things to life. That's what we want our work to do for yours.

Our faith is the foundation of how we run Tova — with honesty, generosity and care for every person we work with.
