Boutique WordPress Web Design Studio in Cape Town

Your website should feel like an invitation - clear, calm and confident. A space that makes the right people feel understood and eager to take the next step towards working with you.

But right now, maybe it doesn't...

The design doesn’t reflect the quality or depth of your work.

People arrive on your site, but get lost because there’s no clear path to take.

The words feel flat or don’t say enough.

You’re invisible when people search for someone with your expertise.

These aren’t just website issues – they’re clarity and connection gaps.

Let’s rebuild with simplicity, strategy and soul at the centre.

Imagine a website that finally feels right. ..

One that looks as polished and trustworthy as the work you do.

Feels fresh, modern, and unmistakably aligned with your brand.

Guides the right people toward reaching out.

Has SEO woven in from the start, so you’re visible when it matters most.

"I want to take a moment to thank you on the fantastic, seamless, professional, and truly outstanding job you have done on transforming our website into the beautiful and easily navigable site that it is today.

Never in my working career has such a massive undertaking been done so seamlessly!"

"Working with Megan at Nutmeg Studio to build our Shopify store for Fruitful® was an absolute pleasure.

The whole experience was smooth and professional from start to finish. Everything was communicated clearly and we especially appreciated the video updates she shared throughout the design process, which made it easy to understand and follow.The final website couldn’t be better in terms of both design and navigation. Megan was always willing to listen and take on feedback, while also bringing incredibly helpful and insightful suggestions to the table that helped our ideas.Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we’d love to work with her again in the future."

- Talia & Graham, Fruitful®

"I had the pleasure of working with Meg, who helped me redevelop our website using the Shopify platform.

Her knowledge of Shopify’s technicalities, and her ability to create a not only functional but visually beautiful website, was beyond expectations. She is incredibly patient, willing to help and importantly able to explain things in a very clear manner. Meg created an amazing video library which I am always referring back to in order to manage the website myself as much as possible. I often still get stuck and will call on her expertise when I do. I can highly recommend Meg to help you create a gorgeous website for your business. Thanks Meg."

- Victoria Bresler, Soul Design

“We can’t speak highly enough about Megan and Nutmeg Design Studio!

We are a small boutique travel agency located in Southern California, USA that was looking for someone to re-imagine our website after 10 years. We interviewed multiple design companies and from the moment we connected with Megan over the phone, we knew we had found someone who could elevate our business to represent where we are today. After an initial strategy meeting, Megan came up with a detailed development plan and was very attentive to all our comments, change requests and at times demanding timelines. Nutmeg Design is highly professional and offers beautiful design ideas . We highly recommend Nutmeg Studio to anyone looking to create a website that can compete on the web.”

Richelle, Soul of Africa Travel

“When I started the daunting task of having my website re-done I felt quite overwhelmed. Meg was wonderful in creating a clear direction for the project and at every stage she communicated clearly and thoroughly.

Her ideas showed that she had vast experience in producing the best information possible about my brand, while also delivering on the importance of an appealing aesthetic with an easy-to-navigate format.I highly recommend Meg for her professional approach which included prompt turnaround times and clear communication and assistance at every turn.Having a website that is informative, appealing and has good SEO is a game changer for any business and Meg is the right person to get the job done.”

Website Strategy, Content Planning & Copywriting

You know your business deeply. But shaping it into clear, compelling website content? That’s another story.

Through a collaborative process, I’ll help you:
• Clarify your core messaging
• Structure your content so it’s easy to navigate
• Write words that reflect your voice and connect with your ideal clients

The words on your website will be warm, intentional, and gently optimised for SEO so you show up in search without sounding robotic.

No cookie-cutter templates. Your website will be custom designed to reflect the tone, feeling and flow of your brand.

• Beautiful, editorial-inspired design
• Fully responsive across all devices
• Built on WordPress with an easy-to-use content management system
• A seamless user experience from the first click to the final enquiry

Intuitive SEO that aligns with your business

SEO shouldn’t feel mysterious or manipulative. I use a grounded, intuitive approach rooted in your real goals and your audience’s real search habits.

• Strategic keyword research
• On-page SEO setup: titles, meta descriptions, internal linking
• Natural, human-first copy that Google also loves

This ensures your website is visible when it matters most — without needing to pay for ads.

How does the process work?

Step 1: Book your free clarity call

In this no-pressure, relaxed call, I’ll learn more about your business and chat about the challenges you’re experiencing with your current website and what online success looks like for you. I’ll explain my studio’s process and the next steps to take if you’d like to work together.

Enquire here – if your project sounds like a good fit I’ll send a link for you to book a call.

Step 2: Together, we’ll plan your website content

I’ll help you decide on the content your website needs in order to attract ideal clients, enquiries and bookings. Then I’ll write captivating copy.

Step 3: I design an elegant & functional WordPress website that highlights your brand’s value and expertise

A website that works for your business – attracting ideal client inquiries and bookings with ease and confidence. All WordPress website packages include SEO keyword research and implementation.

I’m just getting started. Can you help me build a brand-new website from scratch?

Absolutely. Whether you’re launching your very first website or starting a new chapter in your business, I offer strategy-led support to guide you through the entire process — from content clarity to design that truly reflects your values.

What if I already have a website, but it doesn’t feel right anymore?

That’s one of the most common reasons clients reach out. If your current site feels misaligned, outdated or disconnected from where your business is now, I can help you refresh or fully redesign it — so it feels right again.

I struggle with writing about my work. Will you help with the words too?

Yes. Clear, heartfelt copy is a core part of what I offer. I’ll help you shape your messaging so it feels true to you, speaks directly to the people you want to serve, and communicates your value with ease and confidence.

Do you offer SEO as part of your service?

Yes — intuitive SEO is woven into every website I build. From keyword research to metadata and on-page content structure, I’ll help ensure your site is built to be found on Google, without compromising your voice or tone.

How long does a website project usually take?

Timelines vary depending on your content, goals and availability — but most projects take around 4 to 12 weeks. I’ll guide you through a clear process with room for thoughtfulness (and minimal overwhelm).

Will I be able to update my website myself after it’s built?

Yes. You’ll receive training or video tutorials so you can feel confident making basic updates on your own. And I’m always here if you’d prefer ongoing support or want to hand that part over.

I’m not in Cape Town — can we still work together?

Of course. While I’m based in South Africa, I work with clients all over the world via email, Zoom and shared documents. The process is designed to feel personal and collaborative, wherever you’re located.
