115 Studios / Blackpool, UK
We're an independent software studio making tools we believe in, for people who want to make something, learn something or simply get things done.
We take the software seriously.
Ourselves? Slightly less so.
What brought us here
115 Studios grew out of a familiar thought: surely there's a better way to do this. Rather than leaving that idea in a group chat, we started building.
Today we make software for creators, thinkers, students and people juggling a dozen moving parts. Different kinds of work, but the same attention to how each product feels in someone's hands.
We're a small team. That means the person designing an experience and the person making it work can actually talk to each other. Sometimes loudly. Usually productively.
See what we've madeBehind the work
Different talents, occasionally questionable jokes, and one shared tendency to care about the details.
Wayne Pearson founded 115 Studios and is responsible for steering the company while working across graphics, sound and the creative direction behind what we make. He has a talent for turning half-formed ideas and questionable late-night decisions into something that looks suspiciously deliberate.
If it looks expensive, sounds right, or somehow survived the meeting, Wayne was probably involved.
Wayne on XMatthew is the studio's lead engineer, building the systems that turn ideas into working software. He can get something running at alarming speed, then spend twice as long discovering six things he wants to improve. His most persistent technical opponent is often an earlier version of himself.
If the code needs one more pass, there's a good chance Matthew has already opened the editor.
Matthew on XTom works across junior development, graphics and social media, bringing fresh ideas and an instinct for the internet to the team. He can help make something, improve how it looks and then get everyone thinking about how to share it.
Matthew calls him “Sir Tommothy”. No formal knighthood has been confirmed.
Tom on XArrabella looks after the people side of the studio, helps with social media and adds creative support when ideas need another pair of eyes. She also has a knack for bringing common sense back into a conversation that's somehow turned into a plan for an entirely new application.
HR has reviewed the situation. HR is still part of the situation.
Arrabella on XRock3T handles video production and post-production, bringing the editing, pacing and polish that make a finished piece feel intentional. Turning hours of material into a story that holds together takes patience and a sharp eye for the details.
If the edit needs another pass, he's probably spotted it already.
Rock3T on XWhat matters here
Capability matters. So does being able to find what you need without fighting the interface.
Where we can, we build around local ownership, straightforward choices and fewer unnecessary barriers.
We like software that feels considered and human. Professional doesn't have to mean impersonal.
