What is Web Design?
Web design is so much more than just making a website look good. Yes, you need to stand out from the crowd, but not at the cost of increased complexity and reduced usability. At Seva Cloud, we design your strategy and your tech stack in a socially and eco conscious way. To deliver your vision and convey your message, we’ll use charismatic colour pallets and tasteful typescript to style sensible layouts with no frills functionality. We take a ‘less is more’ minimalist approach and prefer soothing and relaxed designs that please the eye yet still give a great user experience. Seva Cloud shares your values of compassion and empowerment and we’ll endeavour to portray that throughout your website messaging.
Our main goal is to reduce the complexity of designing and creating a website. We achieve this by collaborating with you, to understand your message and vision fully before carefully planning how each component will function and what its purpose will be.

Step 1: Content (Text & Images)
Content is crucial to initiate the process, it is important to first identify and generate the content for a website before it can be mapped into a layout during the design phase. This is the chance to convey your mission and vision or sell your products and services. Content can include anecdotes about the experience of running your business at your location. Additionally, incorporating images captured in your local area while operating your business or service will greatly enhance the authenticity of your content.
Step 2: Design (Layout)
Design is more than just making things look good, it also involves considering the flow and functionality of your website. We dedicate time to this step ensuring that our planning is meticulous, thoughtful and effective without compromising the user experience by focusing on functionality and simplicity. You’ll get a full brand strategy and messaging to use across your marketing. We’ll create mock layouts and we work with you to hone the design into perfection across different screen sizes and user ability.
Step 3: Implementation
Once every element is planned with precise intention, the implementation process becomes much smoother. This step breathes life into the website and showcases the design. All the the visual and functional aspects of the design are translated into a fully functional and launched website. Whilst we are building your platform, the website will be available in preview mode until we’re satisfied it is ready for full launch. Expect the full process to take 6-8 weeks.

Baby Bear Studios
Baby Bear Studios approached me in August 2024. The original website was basic, text based, featureless, hard to navigate and all centre aligned. This made it really hard to read and virtually unusable. The WordPress Personal Plan is also very limited in what it offers. I was able to add a good navigation flow along with some easier to read sections, proper heading structure, spacing and layout.
Garden of Eden Florist
The Garden of Eden is a Flower Shop in Stocksbridge run by Jean, the Florist. Jean was experiencing issues with her previous supplier. In 2024, Seva Cloud performed some rebranding, logo work and redesigned the website to match the look and feel of the physical shop in Stocksbridge. Care and attention was paid to the accessibility and responsiveness of the website along with ensuring it was simple and easy to use.
Rev. Dr. Inderjit Bhogal OBE
Inderjit is a Methodist Minister, well known for his peace making and interfaith work. Already a recipient of an OBE and multiple honorary doctorates, in 2005 he helped to found City of Sanctuary in Sheffield, now a national movement. In 2014, Seva Cloud began revamping Inderjit’s personal blog into a modern, fresh and styled website that promotes Inderjit’s ideas, thoughts, accomplishments and life work. The latest design was completed in 2023.
