APPROACH

Refresh Your Brand: Creative Website Design

Tailored Designs to Reflect Your Brand Identity

Creating a visually appealing and functional site involves considering typography, spacial systems, colors, navigation, images/icons, and brand identity. They all play a significant role in establishing brand personality, guiding users, evoking emotions, communicating information, and facilitating navigation.

By carefully considering each of these elements, we are able to create websites that not only look great, but also function seamlessly and provide real value to your audience.

Unique Typography

Fonts, Scaling and Spacing

We consider the effect of font sizes and modify them accordingly to make sure that all devices display content in an easily readable manner. We understand the significance of responsive design and give attention to line spacing to create a clean and uncluttered look that improves overall readability.

Creative Colours

Improving Visual Appeal

Selecting the right colour scheme for your website is crucial. We align the colours with your brand identity to create a consistent visual appearance that builds trust and recognition. We ensure that all elements of your website are balanced and harmonious, making it user-friendly.

Impactful Images

Increase user engagement

Images are a powerful tool to capture attention and increase user engagement. We give high priority to including relevant images in our web design process. Whether it’s photos, illustrations, or graphic elements, they not only add visual interest but also help to communicate complex ideas in an effective way.

Spatial systems

Layouts, Grids & Spacing

The layout forms the structure of your site, guiding visitors through the content. Grid systems lend consistency to the design and are visually pleasing. Consistent spacing ensures clarity. By combining spacial systems, we enhance the aesthetics of your website and its functionality.

Smart Navigation

Designing Touch-Friendly Interfaces for Mobile Users

Responsive web design is a crucial aspect of building websites optimised for mobile and desktop users. With more users than ever accessing websites from their mobile devices, it is essential to create touch-friendly interfaces that work seamlessly on smaller screens.

This means designing layouts that are easy to navigate with a single finger and ensuring that buttons and other interactive elements are large enough to be easily tapped. By considering these considerations, we can create websites that provide a great user experience across all devices and screen sizes.

Improved User Experience: A mobile optimised design enhances the overall user experience as it facilitates ease of navigation and improves the readability of content on smaller devices.
Increased Traffic and Engagement: Websites optimised for mobile devices tend to attract more visitors, which can lead to greater user engagement and increased conversion rates.
Competitive Advantage: A responsive website gives you a competitive edge, especially if your competitors' websites aren't optimised for mobile devices.
SEO Benefits: Mobile optimisation plays a crucial role in SEO as search engines like Google prioritise mobile-friendly websites in their indexing and ranking algorithms.

To start the website build process, we need information about your business goals, target audience, branding guidelines, and content requirements.

The timeline for completing a website project typically ranges from 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the complexity and size of the site. This includes phases such as discovery, planning, design, development, testing, and launch. Clear communication and prompt feedback during each phase can help ensure the project stays on schedule. Custom features or extensive revisions may extend this timeline.

What assets are included in your web design services?

Our services include a range of assets suited to your brand. These typically include high-quality stock images, icons and stock illustrations. We also provide colour schemes, fonts, UI components, and, if needed, logo design.
