About us
Where we are
Brick River is based in Exeter, NH. We’re a small company but the folks here have been designing and developing
sites since 1996. We’ve
loved the project challenges over the years and solving problems
for our customers.
What we like
We love working with smart
customers and seeing ideas come to life.
We’ve done all kinds of projects...
- simple web sites
- big content management
- big commerce
- front-end UI
- back-end stuff
- email systems
- personalization engines
- ranking engines
- synchronizers
- fun little apps
- mission critical systems
- and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on...
What we believe
We have philosophies that we try to keep in mind as we work.
- Simplify — Simplify our creations wherever we can
- Plan for change — The only thing constant is change so plan for it.
- Be human — Try to be easy to talk to and work with.
- Be open — We try to maintain a working environment that allows for spontaneity, creativity and open mindedness.
- Have fun — More often than not if you have fun you will also do a good job.
- Be balanced — Successful projects require all aspects to come together – design, technology and project management.
- Move quickly — Get moving quickly by minimizing functional spec bloat.
- Price work for success — pricing too high or too low can be detremental to the project outcome and relationship. We try to make our prices balanced to give us the resources to do the work right.
We also draw inspiration from...

Real by 37Signals
