Web Design & UX

Web design and UX for the public shell: marketing sites, conversion paths, and responsive product shells. Content and information architecture before high-fidelity screens — backed by a design system.

Part of Creation. This page is for the face of the product on the web — the site and shell people meet before (or beside) the dense in-app product.

If your marketing site or web product shell looks finished but visitors stall on the path that pays the bills, this is the engagement. In-app SaaS workflows, permissions, and production states live on Product & Interface Design.

Thin UX is expensive

A site can ship on time, look modern in a slide deck, and still lose the visit that was supposed to become a trial, demo, or purchase. Users bounce when they cannot find the path. Support fills with “where do I…?” tickets. Marketing keeps adding pages that fight the structure underneath.

Famous product failures often share the same root: the interface asked people to understand the company instead of helping them finish a job. We treat that as a product problem, not a coat of paint.

Who it's for

  • Marketing and growth leads whose site underperforms against paid traffic
  • Teams whose public UI looks like every competitor and converts like it
  • SaaS companies that need a credible web shell before (or alongside) dense app UX
  • Founders shipping a launch site that must teach the offer in one visit

Problems that kill conversion

  • Users cannot find the path that pays the bills
  • Navigation makes sense internally and confuses everyone else
  • Content is written for the company, not for the decision the visitor is making
  • Every new page breaks visual consistency
  • Design and eng drift because there is no shared system
  • Mobile is an afterthought while most traffic is not desktop

What we tackle

Information architecture

Does the menu match how buyers think? We restructure categories, labels, and hierarchy so the next click is obvious, not a scavenger hunt.

Journey design

We map the visits that matter, evaluate, compare, start, upgrade: and remove dead ends before we polish pixels.

Interface & responsive UI

Distinctive visual direction that still reads as your product. Desktop and mobile are designed as one system, not a shrink-wrap.

Prototype & validation

Clickable flows to pressure-test structure with stakeholders (and users when the question is big enough) before eng commits.

What you buy

  • Task-based IA and content priority for critical pages
  • Wireframes for the journeys that convert
  • High-fidelity responsive UI with states that matter
  • Component language your team can extend
  • Developer-ready specs. Or build on the right stack when that is the engagement
  • Typical sizing as a defined project or focused sprint once scope is clear, see Rates

How it works

1. Diagnose: task flows, friction, competitive patterns. Often starts with a UX Audit when stakeholders disagree about what is broken. *Deliverable: findings + opportunity map.* 2. Structure: IA, content jobs, wireframes for the paying paths. *Deliverable: sitemap / IA, key wires, content outline.* 3. Craft & system: UI direction, responsive layouts, foundations you can grow. *Deliverable: hi-fi UI, component set, usage notes.* 4. Handoff or build: specs eng can trust, or implementation on the lightest honest stack. *Deliverable: handoff package and/or shipped surface.*

Focused single-surface sprints often run 1–3 weeks. Multi-journey rebuilds run as phased projects so you see progress without waiting for a big-bang launch.

Engagement shapes

  • Redesign project: IA + UI for a defined set of journeys or a marketing/product shell
  • Focused sprint: one critical surface (pricing, onboarding entry, app shell) under time-box
  • Audit → redesign: diagnose first when the problem is fuzzy; buy the build with eyes open

Proof

Unlayer. Builder UX refined so depth does not become chaos as the product scales. Foodics: systemized design across merchant surfaces so growth does not invent a new UI every quarter. For SaaS-shaped buying context, start at For SaaS.

Fit / not for

For teams who will change structure, not only paint. Not for logo-only or brochure-only asks with no product behind them. Not for “make it look like [famous brand]” without touching the jobs users are trying to finish.

Frequently asked questions

Is this for marketing sites or in-app products?

Web Design & UX is for the public shell — marketing sites, landing systems, and responsive product shells with conversion-focused IA. Dense in-app SaaS workflows, permissions, and production states are Product & Interface Design. Many clients need both, sequenced: shell then core product.

What is the difference between UI and UX design?

UX is how people move through and understand a product. UI is the visual and interactive layer they touch. Phoenux designs them together so the product works and looks intentional, structure first, then craft.

How long does a website redesign take?

Most interface rebuilds take weeks to a few months. A focused sprint (1–3 weeks) suits one surface. A full rebuild is a defined project with phases. Timeline tracks journey count and how locked brand and IA already are.

Do you only redesign marketing sites?

This engagement is the public shell — marketing sites and web product faces. Dense in-app SaaS is Product & Interface Design. Many teams buy both, sequenced honestly.

Will we be involved in the process?

Yes. You own brand, constraints, and go-to-market truth. We run structured reviews so feedback lands on the right layer (structure vs visual) instead of endless pixel debates.

Can you redesign an existing product or site?

Yes. We usually start by diagnosing what is broken (IA, content, journeys, consistency), then redesign what pays the bills first. Full greenfield is optional; phased modernization is common.

Do you provide prototypes?

Yes. Interactive prototypes (typically Figma) let you walk the journeys before engineering commits. That reduces the expensive class of “we built the wrong thing.”

Is accessibility part of the work?

Yes as a baseline: contrast, focus order, semantics, and patterns that do not lock people out. Deep audits can be scoped. We do not treat a11y as a sticker after launch.
