Web Design

(01)

Websites that mean business. We craft fast, mobile-first designs that make your brand impossible to ignore — and your visitors impossible to lose.

Bespoke systems built for how you actually work — school management portals, SACCO platforms, point-of-sale systems. Reliable, scalable, and built for Kenya.

SEO & Growth

Get found by the right people at the right time. We optimise your site from the ground up so you rank higher on Google and attract consistent, quality traffic.

Site Revamp

(04)

Got a site that's slow, dated, or just not converting? We rebuild it into something that performs — better speed, sharper design, stronger results.

Branding

(05)

From logo to full visual identity — we build the brand language that makes your business stick in people's minds long after they've looked away.

Client Stories

Words from the people we've built for.

Real results from real clients across East Africa and beyond.

I had been trying to get a proper website for my salon for almost a year. ScratchDesign just got it right from the first call. Online bookings have doubled since we went live — honestly the best investment I've made for the business.

Founder, Bloom Beauty Kenya

They built exactly what we envisioned — fast, mobile-first, and it loads well even on slower connections. Clients in Nairobi and upcountry can use it without issues. No complaints whatsoever.

Brian Mwangi

CEO, Mara Digital Solutions

I gave them a rough brief and they came back with something that looked like it belonged to an international brand. Our enquiries have gone up noticeably and clients always mention the website first.

Winnie Atieno

Winnie Atieno

Brand Manager, Nairobi Creative Hub

From the first call to launch everything was professional and on schedule. The website has become our strongest sales tool. Worth every shilling — I'd recommend them to anyone serious about their digital presence.

Kevin Ochieng

CTO, Safiri Tech

We needed a complete rebrand and a site that works well on mobile since most of our clients browse on phone. They delivered both and the result is clean, fast and very easy to navigate.

Caroline Njeri

Caroline Njeri

Director, Westgate Properties

The animations and overall feel set us apart from every competitor in our space. Clients always comment on how smooth and polished the site is — it's the first thing they bring up in meetings.

James Kamau

Head of Marketing, Kilimani Ventures

They integrated everything — our product catalogue, M-Pesa checkout, and order tracking. The whole process was smooth and the result is exactly what a growing e-commerce business in Kenya needs.

Faith Amunga

Faith Amunga

E-Commerce Manager, Fahari Online

No fluff, no delays. Just solid work delivered on time. The site reflects our brand perfectly and the after-launch support has been outstanding. Highly professional team.

Peter Njoroge

MD, Ruiru Logistics Ltd

I've worked with several designers before but this was a completely different experience. They actually listened, understood what we were building, and delivered something that has genuinely elevated our brand.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know before we start.

Can't find the answer you're looking for? We're happy to discuss your project in detail.

Talk to us
How long does a typical project take? +

A landing page typically takes 2–3 weeks. A multi-page website takes 4–8 weeks. Custom interactive experiences can take 8–16 weeks depending on complexity. We always provide a detailed timeline at the start of every project.

Do you offer branding alongside web design? +

Yes. Many of our clients come to us for complete brand identity work before the website phase begins. We offer logo design, typography systems, colour palettes, and full brand guidelines as a standalone service or bundled with your website project.

Do you work with international clients? +

Absolutely. We work with clients across Africa, Europe, the US, and beyond. Our project management is fully remote — we use Notion, Figma, and video calls to keep collaboration seamless regardless of timezone differences.

What technologies do you build with? +

We primarily work with vanilla JavaScript, GSAP, Lenis, React, and Next.js for development. For CMS, we use Sanity, Contentful, or WordPress depending on client preference. All our work is handcrafted — we never use page builders or pre-built themes.

Can you redesign our existing website? +

Yes — redesigns are one of our specialities. We conduct a thorough audit of your existing site's performance, UX, and brand alignment before proposing a strategic redesign. We focus on improving conversion, not just aesthetics.

What does the payment structure look like? +

We work on a 50% deposit to begin, 25% at design sign-off, and 25% on final delivery. For larger projects we can accommodate milestone-based payment structures. We accept bank transfers and major credit cards.
