1️⃣ Project Overview
The 2026 redesign and relaunch of the D-S-Design Studio website marks an exciting new era in my journey as a designer and studio owner.
Built to reflect my refined skills, evolved brand identity, and growing reputation in the local business community, the new site brings together modern aesthetics, clearer storytelling, and a smoother, more intuitive user experience.
This relaunch represents more than a visual refresh — it’s the next step in the evolution of D-S-Design Studio, now positioned as a full creative studio offering web design, branding, social media, and digital care for businesses across Dorset and beyond.
2️⃣ The Challenge
My previous website showcased my work but no longer reflected the professional, polished experience clients receive today.
As D-S-Design Studio expanded — with new services, a sharpened brand identity, and a growing social media presence — the website needed to communicate:
• my full service offering
• my client-first process
• my studio values
• my commitment to local business success
The goal was to create a platform that felt elevated, confident, and aligned with where the studio now stands.
3️⃣ The Solution
I designed a sleek, minimal, and strategically structured website built around clarity, usability, and brand consistency.
The new design features:
• clean lines and refined typography for a studio-grade feel
• balanced whitespace for a calmer, more premium experience
• improved navigation making services, projects, and the studio story easier to explore
• enhanced SEO architecture targeting search terms like web designer Shaftesbury, branding studio Dorset, and small business website design UK
• a fully enhanced CMS so I can effortlessly upload new projects, update the blog, publish case studies, and maintain service pages
The 2026 site also incorporates the studio’s updated branding and newly unified D-S-Design Studio identity across social platforms.
4️⃣ The Result
The newly launched 2026 D-S-Design Studio website is a true reflection of who I am today — a self-taught designer who has grown from early passion projects into a trusted creative partner for businesses across the region.
It’s not just a portfolio; it’s a living, adaptable space that shares my work, my story, and the values that shape every project I create.
With expanded services, a clearer brand direction, and a stronger digital presence, the new site positions D-S-Design Studio for its next stage of growth — helping even more local and regional businesses build a digital identity they’re proud of.
