About Vibes Design

Good websites come from knowing the people behind them.

The Vibes Design team: Merylin, Ofir, Lucy, Gal and Sam

The Vibes teamDesign, development, copy and strategy

Led by Gal

The person you talk to knows the build.

Gal Opatovsky founded Vibes and works directly across design, development and client projects. That direct connection matters: the person discussing your website understands the work it takes to build and maintain it.

“We’re already moving on to build additional websites with Gal.”

Our team

Cosy in size, big on ideas.

A small team, so you work directly with the people doing the work.

Gal Opatovsky

Founder & Lead WordPress Consultant

Designs, builds and manages projects, and is the person you deal with from the first call to launch and beyond.

Sam Mckerrow

Design & Strategy

Works with new clients on scope and strategy, so every project starts with a clear plan.

Ofir Kuberman

Developer

Our senior developer, looking after integrations, technical problems and the parts of a build that simply have to work.

Lucy Rash

Lead Copywriter

Shapes tone of voice, messaging and calls to action, with more than ten years of experience across industries.

Merylin Sternstain

Graphic Designer

Brand and visual design, from logos and banners to the graphics that keep a brand consistent.

How we like to work

Practical, clear and still there after launch.

Clients regularly mention clear communication, responsiveness and the ability to get help after launch. Some have worked with Gal for many years and returned with new projects as their businesses changed.

01

We ask what the website needs to do

Before we talk about how it looks.

02

We explain the options

In plain language, with the trade-offs on the table.

03

We keep the process practical

Clear scope, steady progress, and help after launch.

How we work with you

Close to the work, and to you.

Discovery meetings, design reviews, planning sessions and a quick call when you need one. You talk to the person doing the work, from the first conversation to the changes after launch.

Websites for real working lives

From national brands to the business down the street.

Our portfolio covers different business sizes and needs, from national brands and complex B2B sites to local services and WooCommerce catalogues. We stay close to the people who use and manage those websites, because launch is only one moment in their life.
