An independent studio, on purpose
Mirsam Studio is a small independent studio: design, Arabic, code and performance in one team, built for Saudi businesses. That is the whole studio, and it is deliberate.
What Mirsam Studio is
A studio, not an agency. The same people handle the art direction, the layout, the Arabic, the code and the performance work, so nothing is lost in a handover between a design team and a build team — there isn't one. Because the studio is small, you deal with the people doing the work, not with someone relaying it.
Why it exists
Most businesses in Saudi end up on the same handful of templates, and most bilingual sites treat Arabic as a translation poured into an English layout. Both are fixable. Neither gets fixed by a larger team.
Who you'll work with
A small team, all of it on your project from first message to launch. No account manager relaying messages, no junior handed the parts nobody wanted, and nobody you meet once and never hear from again.
How the work is made
- 01
Structure before surface
Performance, search visibility and right-to-left layout are decided before the first screen is designed — not retrofitted once the design is signed off.
- 02
Arabic is not a translation layer
Arabic gets its own typeface, its own type size, its own leading and its own motion direction. Mirroring an English layout is not the same thing and never reads as native.
- 03
Nothing is off the shelf
Websites are designed from the brief up: no themes, no page builders, no starter kit with a logo swapped in. When you choose a platform like Salla or Zid for a store, we still design the store itself rather than just changing the logo.
- 04
Measured, not assumed
Colour contrast, horizontal overflow and Core Web Vitals are tested at real breakpoints in both languages. "It looks fine" is not a measurement.
What to expect
- A fixed scope and a number before anything starts.
- Direct contact with the people doing the work, for the whole project.
- A limited number of projects at a time — that's the trade for the line above.
- Everything handed over at the end: files, repository, accounts, domain.
Saudi focus
Built for how business actually works here: WhatsApp as first contact rather than a form nobody answers, Arabic that reads as though it was written rather than translated, and the payment and trust marks Saudi buyers look for before they take you seriously.
