Hereid Hus
Design and development of the company’s new digital profile and website.
01 · Brief & goals
Refining perception: reflecting scale, expertise, and quality
After years without a redesign, Hereid Hus’ previous website no longer represented the company’s growth or direction. Once focused on residential projects, the business had evolved into a leading builder of large-scale commercial and institutional developments. The new site needed to communicate this shift—showcasing expertise, craftsmanship, and the scale of their work through a refined, modern digital presence.
- Reposition the brand to reflect large commercial project focus.
- Present a more polished, design-forward visual identity matching project quality.
- Showcase key projects and capabilities with clarity and confidence.
- Modernize the site for better usability, speed, and maintainability.
