 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've recently been introduced to Lightbox Digital, the digital division of Lava Lamp Labs. We briefed them on a project - to build on website, but integrating both our brands with their own identity under a new brand - BushMag.com. We had weekly catch-ups with their team and they are most probably the best web dev team I've worked with thus far. I can definitely recommend them for any task - however big or small. They are are professional oiled machine and their communication (to keep us informed on the project), was next level. Well done Katherine and team!
Kind regards,

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I throughly enjoyed my time at the the company. They have excellent faculty and very approachable workers to speak to. I had a LO project and the company allowed me to work there for 2 days. It was more than a learning experience it was how they interacted with one another amd gave positive feedback on their work. Thank you for having me !!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Appreciated the experience of working with Lightbox Digital when we needed the website updated and the complex existing backend protected and carried across intact. I like working with people who take ownership and push back when they believe you're going down the wrong path.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ive been working with Gary, Katherine and team for around 5 years. They truly are a pleasure to work with. They run (and build) our web sites, do development for us and any other R&D projects needed including integrations. Whether it be in order to help us with basics or more advanced programs they get the job done quickly and at a very fair rate. Service is amazing - any time we need anything it just gets done. Happy to recommend to anyone - one of those cases where you truly are getting a top notch all round service

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This company not only creates great designs; they are also very helpful in fostering the development of new designers. I needed to complete an internship to complete my qualifications for graphic design, and they were very helpful in further developing my skills in real-world settings. The employees are easy to talk to, and happy to offer their services/knowledge wherever possible. Overall, I would highly recommend this business for any needs you might have.
