ViewPrice Studio — Seoul and Asia
Web design studio for Korean business sites
We plan and build mobile-first business websites for teams in South Korea and across Asia. Structure and speed come first, decoration second — so your site loads fast on a phone and is easy for your team to update.
A calm starting point for a dated, slow site
Most visitors arrive with the same problem: a site that looks tired on a phone, takes too long to load, and is hard for the marketing team to update. We work through that problem in order. This page shows what we build, which platforms we use, and where to go next if you want to compare services or start an inquiry.
If you handle responsive web design, landing page design, or WordPress website development for a Korean audience, you will find practical notes here — not sales language. Read straight through, or jump to the area that matches your task.
Business website design
What we actually build
We build two things most often. First, marketing and brochure sites on WordPress, usually five to fifteen pages, with a bilingual setup when the audience splits between Korean and English. Second, landing pages for a single campaign, built on the same stack so your team does not learn a second editing tool.
Store builds come up too, and for those we look at WooCommerce before recommending a standalone platform. The scope depends on your catalog size, shipping needs, and whether you sell only in Korea or across borders. A ten-product shop with local delivery is a different project than a two-hundred-product catalog with cross-border payments and invoice-based settlement.
- Marketing sites your team can editBlog posts, banners, and new pages without calling a developer. Permissions stay simple, and Korean and English versions stay in sync.
- Campaign pages with one actionQuote request, demo booking, or file download. Built on the same WordPress blocks, so a campaign page takes an afternoon, not a new project.
- Small stores, scoped honestlyWe check WooCommerce first for content-led shops, and point to Shopify Plus only when volume and centralized commerce work call for it.
Typical brochure scope: five to fifteen pages, one editing workflow.

Mobile-first is a planning decision, not a style
In South Korea, a large share of first visits happen on a phone, often on mobile data rather than office wifi. That changes what we design first. The hero section has to communicate the offer in one thumb-scroll, navigation has to work without hover states, and forms have to survive autofill and Korean address input.
We sketch the phone layout before the desktop one, then expand. It sounds backwards until you see how much rework it saves later — shorter headlines, tappable targets, and forms that fit a narrow screen without sideways scrolling.
One thumb-scroll to understand the offer, then a clear next step. No pinching, no tiny links.
Forms tested with autofill, Korean address fields, and large tap areas of at least 44 pixels.
Light pages for mobile data: compressed images, few scripts, and caching set on the host.
Speed and search
Fast pages keep people. Clean structure helps search.
Speed and SEO basics
Page speed affects both search ranking and how many people stay long enough to contact you. We set a performance budget at the start and check it before launch: compressed images, limited third-party scripts, and caching configured on the host.
On the SEO side, we handle clean URL structure, one H1 per page, descriptive meta titles, and structured data where it applies. None of this is exotic. It is just easier to do while building than to retrofit after launch.
WordPress as the practical default
WordPress has been around since 2003 and still powers a large share of the public web, especially content and marketing sites. For a team that needs to publish posts, swap banners, and add landing pages without calling a developer, it is usually the least painful option.
Themes, plugins, and multilingual setups are mature, and hiring for it in Korea is straightforward. When a project genuinely needs something else, we say so. Drupal, for example, still makes sense for organizations with heavy editorial workflows and permission structures.
Landing pages and conversion rate
Review tools and platformsA landing page has one job, and everything on it either helps or distracts. We build these around a single action: a quote request, a demo booking, a download. That means a clear hero section, proof that is real, and a form short enough that people finish it.
One page, one action
Headline, supporting line, and a single button path. Secondary links move to the footer so they do not pull attention from the form.
Thank-you state and follow-up
We plan what happens after submit: confirmation copy, what the team sends next, and how the lead is stored. A lead that never gets a reply is not a lead.
Work from your numbers
Conversion work continues after launch, using your analytics rather than guesswork. Short forms, clear labels, and readable error messages first.
Design systems and handoff
Once a site grows past a handful of templates, consistency gets hard. We build a small design system: type scale, spacing, button states, form fields, and dark mode if you need it.
Reusable Figma components
Buttons, cards, and form parts your team can copy for the next campaign.
Reusable code blocks
Built with Tailwind CSS patterns, so spacing and color stay steady page to page.
Short written guide
How to add a page, swap a banner, and keep two languages aligned.
UI UX that lasts
States for hover, focus, and errors are drawn once, then reused everywhere.
Platforms we work with
The stack is chosen per project, not by habit. WordPress and WooCommerce cover most content and small-commerce builds. Shopify Plus comes up for larger merchants who need centralized commerce management.
For front-end styling we often use Tailwind CSS, which has been around since 2017 and suits teams that want consistent spacing without a heavy library. We use Figma for collaborative UI UX work and prototyping.

Inspiration, and what it is actually for
We keep a running file of design references, including work from The FWA, which has long focused on innovation and technical execution. It is useful for spotting interaction ideas, not for copying layouts.
An award-worthy site usually earns that label through a specific idea executed well, not through a pile of effects. If a reference does not survive the question “would this help our visitor finish their task,” it stays in the file.
Bilingual and multilingual builds
Korean and English on one site raises real questions: does the URL structure separate languages, who edits which version, and how do you avoid one language going stale. We plan language switching, translation storage, and fallback behavior before writing templates.
Korean typography also needs attention: line breaking, font loading, and spacing behave differently from Latin text. Getting this right at the start costs less than patching it after the English version drifts out of sync.
Templates versus custom work
A template gets you online faster and cheaper. It also constrains your structure, and the hidden cost shows up when the template’s assumptions fight your content. Our rule of thumb: if the site is mostly standard pages and the brand is not the product, a well-configured theme is fine.
If the layout carries the offer, if you need unusual product filtering, or if the site must match an existing design system, custom work pays back. We will tell you which one your project is.
How a project starts here
Most projects begin with a short call or a written brief, then a scoped estimate. We ask about your current site, your hosting, your internal editing team, and your deadline. From there it is wireframe, then prototype, then build, then launch and handover.
Brief and estimate
Send your pages, platform wishes, and deadline. You get a written, phased estimate.
Wireframe and prototype
Phone layout first, then desktop. Clickable Figma draft before any code.
Build and checks
Speed budget, SEO basics, bilingual behavior, and form testing on real phones.
Launch and handover
Guide included. If you know your platform already, we skip discovery.

Quick answers before you write
Four questions we hear on almost every first call. Longer answers live on the FAQ page.
Read the FAQDo you work with clients outside South Korea?
Yes. The studio is based at Europe Square 1 in Batumi, and we work with teams across Asia and Europe. Most collaboration happens over email and scheduled calls, with shared documents for review.
Can you take over an existing WordPress site?
Often, yes. We start by auditing the current theme, plugins, and hosting. If the foundation is sound, we improve it. If it is not, we will say so and scope a rebuild instead of patching a broken base.
How much does a website cost?
It depends on page count, custom design work, and whether e-commerce or multilingual setup is involved. We give a written estimate after a short brief, and we break it into phases so you can stop between them.
How long does a typical project take?
A focused landing page can move quickly. A full business site with a design system and bilingual content takes longer, and the main variable is usually how fast content and feedback arrive from your side.
