Maroš Smrek
Runs the studio and the projects themselves, from brief to handover.
The studio
Craft, not a template
Approach
Every project starts with what it has to achieve, not with how it should look. The visual is the answer, not the starting point.
We work in the running product from the start. A design that only looks right in a static file is not a finished design.
Scope stays deliberately small. A handful of projects at a time, so each gets full attention.
Mock-up
Template vs. craft
The same content, the same structure, two different sets of decisions. Drag the handle.
Template 50% / craft 50%

Factory automation
A line that never stops at night.
We watch production in real time and flag the drift before it turns into downtime.

Philosophy
Code nobody needs is weight forever. Hence no templates and no page builders, every project carries exactly what it uses.
Motion is a tool, not decoration. If an animation neither guides attention nor confirms an action, it does not ship.
Speed is a design decision. You can optimise later, but it is cheapest at the very beginning.

Thunderstruck started with a simple idea: the first seconds decide everything.
Behind the studio are more than ten years of software development focused on performance and detail, technical grounding paired with a real feel for design and motion.
For larger projects we assemble the team the work calls for, across design, development and testing.
You deal directly with the people working on the project, not with an account manager in between.
Practical questions
How quickly will I get a reply?
Usually within two working days. If the question needs more time, we let you know that we are on it.
Do you work with smaller companies, or only larger projects?
Smaller ones too. Scope sets the price, not our willingness to take the work. A single-page campaign site gets the same seriousness as a months-long application.
What happens after handover? Is that the end of it?
Not automatically. At handover the project becomes yours, accounts included, along with a walkthrough of managing the content. What comes next is your call: we can carry on with maintenance and further phases, or simply be there when you need us.
How many projects do you take at once?
We do not give an exact number, it moves with how many projects are running. What matters is that each one gets full attention. If we had no capacity for your project, you would hear it from us straight away, not after being put in a queue.
Who we are
A steady core, a wider team
The pair that runs every project from first contact to launch. Depending on scope we bring in more people, the studio's capacity is not the ceiling.
