The person behind DesignZone.
I build websites the way a business owner needs them – because I am one.
I'm Srdjan Repensek, a web designer based in Cape Town. I've been designing professionally for 25 years, and for most of that time I've run my own small business – which means I know what it's like to watch every rand, to need a website that earns its keep, and to have no patience for jargon or surprises.
The difference
I don't just build online stores. I run one.
My own brand, JustJan, sells personal care products on Takealot and runs its own online store. So when I build a shop for you, I'm not guessing what works — I deal with couriers, payment gateways, product listings and customers every week, on my own money. That experience goes into every store I build.
Experience
25 years of making things look right and work properly.
My background covers web design, graphic design, image editing and video — the full visual side of a business, not just the website. I've built and maintained sites for clients in South Africa, Canada, Australia, Spain and Norway: e-commerce stores, service businesses, and everything between. Some of my client relationships have lasted years — I'd like to think that says something.
How I work
- You deal with me directly — no account managers, no juniors, no handovers.
- Fixed prices, agreed upfront. No hourly billing surprises.
- I explain things in plain language and tell you honestly what you need — even when it's the cheaper option.
- I answer messages within one working day, usually faster.
