Redesign examples

These are sample projects for fictional businesses. We made both the ‘before’ and the proposed design to show how we approach a redesign — they are not results from real clients.

Website redesign

from €2,900

For businesses whose current website no longer works hard enough.

  • Up to 5 pages, designed for phones first
  • Your existing text and images moved over and tidied up
  • 2 rounds of revisions
  • Speed and basic search setup (page titles, descriptions, redirects)
  • Launch on your domain

New website

No website yet? Same process and pricing, based on the pages you need.

Optional

Care plan

from €49 /month

Small text and image updates, technical updates and a monthly check. Not required to buy a redesign.

Quoted separately before work starts: extra pages, online booking or shop features, writing new copy from scratch, and translations.

Pay by bank transfer — EUR via SEPA, SGD or HKD by local transfer. The currency and schedule are confirmed in your quote.

Prices in SGD and HKD are approximate conversions from EUR for reference (rates of 30 Oct 2026). Your quote states the final currency and amount.

How it works

Email-first. No calls needed — everything is confirmed in writing.

  1. 01

    Review the concept

    We send a design concept for your homepage. It's free and there's no obligation.

  2. 02

    Agree scope and price

    By email or chat we confirm pages, content and a fixed quote. Paid work starts only after you approve it.

  3. 03

    Design, build and revise

    You get a private preview link to check on your phone and computer. Send feedback as a list or screenshots — two revision rounds are included.

  4. 04

    Launch and handover

    We launch on your domain and hand over access and files, so the website is fully yours.

Questions

Do we need to have calls?

No. We work by email or chat. You'll receive written summaries, a fixed quote and preview links, so every decision is on record.

How do payments work?

Pay by bank transfer — EUR via SEPA, SGD or HKD by local transfer. The currency and schedule are confirmed in your quote.

We're in a different time zone. Is that a problem?

We're in Japan (UTC+9). You'll usually get a reply within one business day, and the time difference means work often moves forward while you sleep.

Which languages do you work in?

We communicate in English. Your website can be in English, Norwegian or both; other languages are quoted separately.

What counts as a revision round?

One round is a single, combined list of changes to the current preview. Two rounds are included; extra rounds are quoted in advance.

Who owns the website?

You do. Your domain stays in your name, and after final payment you receive the website files and admin access.

How do we update the site after launch?

Small text and image changes can be handled through the optional care plan or quoted per request. If you'd rather edit pages yourselves, tell us before we start and we'll build it so you can.

Is the care plan required?

No. It is optional, and the website works without it.

Can another developer take over later?

Yes. The site is built with standard, documented code, and you get everything needed to hand it over.

What do you move from our current site?

Your text, images and page structure, plus redirects from important old addresses so you don't lose search traffic.

Let's look at your website.

Send us your website address and what you'd like to improve. We'll reply within one business day with a few questions or a date for your concept.
