About the Project
Sahihi Interior Builders has been delivering exceptional interior design and construction services since 2010, with over 126 projects completed across East Africa. The website redesign aimed to position Sahihi as an industry leader while emphasizing their expertise, credibility, and diverse portfolio.
A key aspect of the project was developing a typography guide to ensure brand consistency across all digital touchpoints. This guide empowered developers to maintain alignment with Sahihi’s visual identity and ensured that every design element, from headers to body text, reflected the brand’s values.
Key Objectives
Showcase Expertise: Highlight Sahihi’s extensive project portfolio across diverse industries.
Create a Seamless UX: Improve navigation and content accessibility for potential clients.
Strengthen Brand Identity: Develop a design system that ensures consistency across all pages and platforms.
What We Did

We kicked off the project by identifying Sahihi’s unique needs and objectives. Through collaborative workshops, we outlined the website’s structure, key functionalities, and desired outcomes.
Deliverables:
A responsive website design tailored to desktop, tablet, and mobile users.
Dedicated pages for the portfolio, services, blog, and company story.
A comprehensive typography guide for seamless brand alignment.
2. UI/UX Redesign
The redesign focused on delivering a user-friendly and visually stunning experience:
Home Page

Blog

3. Typography Guide
To maintain visual consistency, we created a typography guide that defined:
Font Pairings: A modern serif for headers paired with a clean sans-serif for body text.
Hierarchy: Clear guidelines for font sizes, weights, and spacing to ensure readability and brand alignment.
Usage: Instructions for applying typography across various platforms (e.g., web, print, social media).
