## The challenge

Design Matter is an interior, architecture and landscape design studio based in Business Bay, Dubai. Founded by Fabidha Safar-Rahman in 2017 as a solo practice, the studio has grown into a team of ten designers, architects and artists delivering homes, hospitals, schools and workplaces across the UAE and Saudi Arabia, for clients including Aster DM Healthcare, Medcare Hospitals and GJ Properties. As the studio grew, its existing website had fallen behind the calibre of its work. It was slow to load, difficult to navigate and held back by persistent usability issues.

## What we built

We rebuilt the site for speed and ease of use, resolving its UX issues and creating a clean, image-led experience with projects organised by sector.

## The outcome

The result is a fast, intuitive website that lets Design Matter's work take centre stage, as considered as the spaces the studio creates.
