Designed around the reader
Type sized for long reading, not for a screenshot.
Saros teaches, and everything on the platform had to serve that. Not a prospectus with a login, but a place where a learner, a parent and a tutor each find what they came for.
The challenge
Education platforms are built for three audiences who want different things from the same page. Students want the work. Parents want reassurance. Staff want the admin to take less time than it used to. Serve one badly and the platform is not used.
The work · 3 moves
What we actually did.
Not a logo and a landing page. A full effort across strategy, brand, content and engineering — here’s the play-by-play.
- Website
- Maintenance
- 01
Clear before clever
Plain language, obvious routes and a calm palette, because a learner who is lost is a learner who stops.
- 02
Three audiences, one place
Structure that gives each of the three a front door without three separate products to maintain.
- 03
Dependable, then pretty
Pages that hold up on a slow connection and an old handset first; the polish sits on top of that, not instead of it.
How our awesomeness made it happen.
The moves that turned the brief into a result.
Maintained, not handed over

Built to be added to
New programmes and pages fit the system as it stands.
