Stratus Design Studios is an accomplished, well respected small firm of Web and Graphic designers as well as Information Technology consultants based in Queens, New York. We specialize in all aspects of web development from concept to deployment.
Stratus Studios believes that all your web endeavors should be fully scalable. Whether you are a business, big or small, an artist or musician, or just an individual looking to have your own outlet on the web, we develop a comprehensive plan to bring your vision to the cloud and beyond. Utilizing industry standards such as HTML5, CSS, Javascript, PHP, JQuery, Flash and other coding interfaces, all Stratus Designed websites are guaranteed to validate in every major browser as well as to the exacting standards of the W3C. But our services do not stop at a simple collection of code: Our programmers work hand in hand with either our in-house Photoshop and Flash design team or a graphic developer of your choosing to ensure that your branding and imagery come across strong enough to leave a lasting impression with each unique visitor to your site.
Delivery of a completed product is not made until we have met and satisfied your exacting requirements, but even then, our services still extend further. We offer low-cost hosting served out of our Queens facility, and will expedite any transactions you need to make with a larger hosting establishment or registrar, such as GoDaddy or Dreamhost, including registering the all important domain name for your website. All websites are maintained and are guaranteed for a period of two years from the date of deployment, and extended service agreements are available for sites needing more than basic maintenance.
Stratus Design Studios is here to help you bring your web site to the world. Contact us now, and find out what we can do to bring your vision beyond the cloud.

Web Layout Mockup (Photoshop design only - no coding)
So you hav a vision, but you're not yet quite sure how it will work out. Perhaps you need something to pitch to investors and business partners immediately. Stratus understands and is here to help
Our Web Development team works closely with our Graphic Design team to work out a visual layout for your website, similar to how an architect creates a set of drawings for a contractor. This graphic is not an active website, but an illustration showing how a website will look once coded. This is often the option for presentation purposes, and is charged as a flat-rate fee.
