GRΛVLUX designs and builds premium websites, web applications and digital systems for businesses that refuse to look ordinary.
NAIROBI · KENYA · WORLDWIDE
Projects delivered across industries — from Nairobi to international markets.
Every project we take on falls into one of three areas. Within each, we build custom — nothing is templated, nothing is recycled from a previous client.
Websites that represent the business properly — designed for the right audience, built to perform under real traffic, and tested before they go live.
Products that have users, sessions, and real data — built with the same discipline as any commercial software project, not website-builder logic.
The backend work that makes a business run faster — from payment integrations to custom workflows that replace manual processes and reduce operational overhead.
From a tight one-pager to a real-time trading platform — built to the brief, not pulled from a template library.
Custom-built websites designed for the way people actually browse — fast, navigable, and specific to your brand. No themes. No page builders.
Logo, colour system, typography, brand guidelines. A visual identity that holds together across a business card, a billboard, and a website header — built to last years, not months.
Dashboards, portals, booking systems, internal tools. If it needs a login, a database, or real-time data — we've built something like it before.
Online stores built around what your customers actually need. Custom product pages, streamlined checkout, and layouts that don't get in the way of the sale.
Trading dashboards, market data feeds, payment integrations, and automation — built for the financial sector, where precision isn't optional and downtime isn't acceptable.
Research, wireframes, prototypes, and final UI. Interfaces that make sense the first time — because good UX is the thing nobody notices when it works.
Custom software built around what your business actually does — databases, admin dashboards, client portals, booking systems. We scope it properly, then build it properly.
Full-service social media management for individuals, brands, and companies — content creation, posting schedules, engagement strategy, and growth analytics across Instagram, LinkedIn, X/Twitter, TikTok and more.
Social media graphics, marketing collateral, pitch decks, flyers, banners, and print-ready artwork. Clean, intentional, and consistent with your brand — not just something that looks busy.
A clear process from first conversation to launch — with the client informed and in control at every stage.
We start by understanding the business — what it does, who it serves, and what the digital work needs to actually achieve. The answers to those questions shape every design and technical decision that follows.
Wireframes, visual concepts, and interactive prototypes. We work through the design until it's right — you see the full picture before development begins, so there are no late-stage surprises.
Clean code, rigorous testing, fast hosting, and a clear handover. We don't disappear after launch — post-launch support means any issues are dealt with before they become problems.
We select tools based on project requirements — not trends. The right technology for the job, used properly.
The tools are only as good as the team using them. Ours have shipped real products — for schools, traders, brands, and founders.
A selection of projects delivered across education, healthcare, fintech, commerce, and executive personal branding — real sites, real clients, real results.
Full school portal with CBC curriculum, online admissions, M-Pesa fees integration, admin dashboard and boarding section.

GRΛVLUX was founded by Lewis Coogan to bring design, technology, and business thinking together under one studio. It started as a freelance operation in 2023, became a registered company in 2024, and launched its own site in 2026 — three years of building for others before putting the name on anything publicly.
We specialise in the intersection of visual excellence and technical precision. From the first pixel to final deployment, every decision is intentional — building websites and applications that don't just look remarkable, but perform correctly. Technology is chosen by what the project needs: static HTML where speed matters, React/Next.js for scale, custom backends where the brief requires it.
The portfolio spans industries: high-frequency trading platforms, medical centres, wellness brands, e-commerce stores, schools, foundations and executive personal brands — reflecting the breadth of what we build and the depth with which we build it.
A clear four-step process that keeps every project on track — from the first conversation through to a successful go-live.
We start by deeply understanding your brand, goals, audience, and competitors. This foundation shapes every decision that follows.
Wireframes, visual concepts, and interactive prototypes. We iterate until the design is exactly right before writing a single line of code.
Clean, performant code built to last. We develop with accessibility, SEO, and scalability in mind — then test rigorously across all devices.
Deployment, domain setup, performance optimisation, and ongoing support. We don't disappear after launch — we're here for the journey.
We're a small studio. That's a feature — it means the person you brief is the person who builds.
Before writing a line of code, we consider the business, the workflow, and the objectives behind the interface — not just what it should look like.
Design and development are considered together from the first brief — not handed off in sequence. The result is work that looks right and performs correctly.
We don't force businesses into generic templates or predefined systems. Every project starts from the brief — structured around what you actually need to achieve.
We create digital foundations that can evolve as the business grows — so adding features, scaling traffic, or entering new markets doesn't mean rebuilding from scratch.
Four principles that inform how we work, how we communicate, and what we're prepared to compromise on (which is nothing).
To make professional-grade digital work accessible to founders, clinics, schools, and enterprises across Africa. Geography shouldn't determine quality. Every client we take on gets the same standard of thinking and execution — whether they're in Nairobi or nowhere on anyone's radar yet.
To become the most trusted digital studio in East Africa — and to build a body of work that holds up against the best anywhere. We're already building it, one project at a time.
We don't ship work we're not proud of. Every project goes through multiple rounds of internal review before the client sees it — because the details that nobody consciously notices are exactly the ones that make a site feel right. That's not a process. It's a standard.
No hidden fees. No vague timelines. No disappearing after payment. We communicate honestly at every stage — the good, the challenges, and the plan to solve them. Our clients are partners, not transactions. We grow together, and we win together.
Five tiers — from a sharp landing page to a full custom platform. Every package includes a discovery consultation, structured revision cycles, and post-launch support.
All packages include a free strategy consultation. Prices in EUR — KSH equivalent available on request. Not sure which tier fits? Message us and we'll recommend the right investment for your goals.
Regardless of the package you choose, these non-negotiables are baked into every single project we deliver.
Every project begins with a strategy consultation — understanding your goals, audience, and vision before a single line of code is written.
SSL-ready, XSS-protected, CSP headers, honeypot forms, and rate-limited endpoints. Every project ships hardened against attacks by default.
Lazy-loaded images, minified assets, CDN delivery, and Core Web Vitals tuning. We target 90+ Lighthouse scores on every delivery.
Every layout is designed for the smallest screen first, then elegantly scaled up — ensuring flawless experience on every device.
Meta tags, structured JSON-LD data, semantic HTML, canonical URLs, sitemaps, robots.txt — all configured correctly from day one.
Every project includes hands-on support after go-live. We stay with you through the first bugs, tweaks, and questions — no ghosting, ever.
We're proud of every project we ship. If the final delivery doesn't meet what was agreed in the brief, we revise it — no extra charge. Our reputation is built on results, not excuses.
Moderated, unedited reviews from real partners — the brands, schools, and founders who trusted us with their most important digital asset.
