Clear thinking. Beautifully put together.
Your website has a fairly simple job.
It needs to explain what you do, make the right impression and give someone enough confidence to take the next step.
The difficult part is making all of that feel effortless.
I bring the copy, structure and design together from the beginning, so your website isn't just beautiful. It's clear, considered and easy to understand.

She transformed our website!
Meg transformed our website into something seamless, beautiful, and incredibly easy to navigate. I’ve never experienced such a smooth process in my working career.
You’re calm, quietly confident and wonderfully organised, and you just "got" what I was trying to achieve.
Working with you has been an absolute pleasure. You’re incredibly intuitive and there’s such a calm, grounded energy about you that makes the whole process feel easy.
A pleasure to work with
It was an absolute pleasure working with Meg. She immediately understood what we were looking for and was approachable throughout the process.
She elevated our business to represent where we are today
We interviewed multiple design companies and from the moment we connected with Megan, we knew we had found someone who could elevate our business to represent where we are today. Megan came up with a detailed development plan and was very attentive. Nutmeg Design is highly professional and offers beautiful design ideas.
When your website hasn't kept up with your business
Maybe you built it yourself when you were starting out. Maybe it was done quickly or cheaply. Or perhaps it was a good website five years ago, but your business has changed since then.
Your work is better. Your thinking is sharper. You know who you want to work with. Your website just hasn't caught up.
That's usually where I come in.
I work out what needs to be said, what doesn't, and how to structure it so someone landing on your website quickly understands what you do, who it's for and why they should trust you.
Then I make it look good.
The words always come first
Before I designed websites, I worked in journalism, publishing and communications.
A lot of that work was about taking something complicated, finding the important part and explaining it clearly without dumbing it down.
I approach websites in much the same way.
For service and expert-led businesses, the words aren't something you drop into a finished design. They're part of the design.
I develop the structure and copy alongside the visual direction, so the whole website works together to tell a clear, convincing story about your business.

Who I work with
For businesses built on expertise, service and trust.
I work with consultants, specialists, professional services, wellness practitioners and other service-led businesses where the website needs to communicate expertise without becoming corporate or complicated.
You might be one person with a highly specialised practice, or an established business with a team behind it.
What matters is that people need to understand and trust what you do before they'll get in touch.
That's the problem I particularly enjoy solving.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does this take?
Roughly 4 - 8 weeks depending on the size and complexity of your project.
I'm not based in South Africa. Can we still work together?
Yes. I work with clients around the world and run the whole process remotely.
What if my business doesn't fit neatly into "consultant" or "coach"?
Those are examples, not a strict list. If your business runs on people trusting your expertise, it's probably a good fit. Get in touch and we'll talk it through.
About the studio
Hi, I'm Meg.
I'm the designer and developer behind Nutmeg Studio.
I've been designing websites for more than a decade, with a background in journalism, communications and copywriting.
That combination shapes the way I work. I think about the message, structure and design as one problem rather than three separate services.
Work out what matters. Remove what doesn't. Make it feel simple.
Nutmeg is an independent studio based in Cape Town, working with clients across South Africa and internationally.
