Astro web designDESIGNED

A beautiful design that loads slowly loses visitors. We design for Astro: everything you see stays light.

Direct answer

Astro web design is the design of a site that is built in Astro: brand identity, screens and motion, made so that the pages stay light. Empireyo designs and builds both, so the design does not get lost in the build. Examples are Taxi Grou and Ikiz.

Designing for speed

Beautiful, without getting heavy.

Large images, motion and custom typefaces make a site recognisable, but they can also make it slow. So we choose deliberately: images in a size a phone can handle, motion with CSS instead of heavy scripts, and no more typefaces than needed.

Astro helps here, because a component only brings its own styles and script to the page where it appears. A page without a form does not carry the code of that form.

From our work

Two brands, designed and built in Astro.

For Taxi Grou we designed a logo that reads like a taxi sign, in blue and yellow, with headings in Schibsted Grotesk. The ride request sits on the homepage, in four short steps.

For Ikiz a wordmark with an arrow pointing forward, in night blue and sea green. Visitors find their own situation through an overview of five areas of law and sixty situations.

For TaalPro a purple speech bubble as the logo mark and a colour of its own for every language level. The same screens exist in Farsi too, from right to left.

How it goes

From brand identity to the last screen.

We start with your brand: logo, colours and type. Then we design the screens, first for a phone and then for a large screen, and you see them before anything is built.

Because we build it ourselves, we already know while designing what stays light and what does not. What you see in the design is what goes live.

Frequently asked

Good to know.

Does Astro change the design?+
Not how it looks: what a browser can do, Astro can do. It does change how it works: we design so that every page stays light.
Do you design the logo and brand identity too?+
Yes. For all nine clients on our work page we did the design, the screens and the logo.
Can an existing design move to Astro?+
Yes. We rebuild it in Astro and look for places where it can be lighter along the way, without changing your brand.
