Overview

Big Human's enterprise web design services span the full lifecycle from initial UX research and information architecture through visual design, development, and post-launch optimization. We work with large organizations across industries to build websites that reach the right target audience and perform against real business goals. Our team brings together strategy, design, and engineering under one roof.

When Enterprise Web Design Is the Right Investment

Most organizations reach a point where their website can no longer keep up with the business — whether that's because the brand has evolved, the audience has grown, or the technology underneath it all is showing its age. Enterprise web design makes sense when your website needs to do more: serve more users, carry more content, and meet more complex website needs than a standard build can support.

Designing a Complex, Multi-Stakeholder Website

Enterprise organizations rarely have a single audience or a single point of approval. Your website may need to serve investors, customers, partners, and internal teams (all with different needs). As TD Ameritrade's agency of record for nine years, we designed for user types ranging from novice investors to professional traders. Getting alignment right from the start is how you avoid expensive rework later.

Building a Scalable Design System

A design system is the infrastructure behind a successful enterprise website: the shared library of components, patterns, and guidelines that keeps your brand consistent across all touchpoints as your site grows. Without one, teams end up making inconsistent decisions at every turn. We build design systems that are genuinely usable: documented, flexible, and built to scale.

Aligning Brand Identity with Business Goals

Brand identity and business goals have to move together. A beautiful website that doesn't convert, or a high-converting site that undermines the brand, is a failure either way. Our process starts with understanding what the business is trying to achieve — then designing an experience that puts brand consistency and performance on the same track. Typography, color schemes, design elements, and messaging all ladder up to something specific.

Improving UX, Engagement & Conversion Rate

We approach UX research and information architecture as a diagnostic process: understanding user behavior first, then designing with conversion rates and engagement in mind. Removing friction from key flows makes a measurable difference in business outcomes.

Migrating or Modernizing an Outdated Web Presence

A legacy platform isn't just a design problem; it's a business constraint. Outdated CMS architecture, inflexible templates, and slow load times affect SEO and AEO rankings, user experience, and your team's ability to publish and iterate. We've managed complex website migrations and modernizations for enterprise clients, minimizing disruption while upgrading the infrastructure underneath. The end result is an enterprise-level website that your team can actually work in.

Enterprise Web Design Case Study

TD Ameritrade: Nine Years of Enterprise Design at Scale

From 2010 to 2019, Big Human served as TD Ameritrade's agency of record. What started as a brand refresh evolved into a full-scale innovation partnership spanning research, strategy, branding, UX/UI design, and development across desktop and mobile platforms.

The core challenge was designing for multiple user types — novice investors, intermediate traders, and seasoned professionals — each with different needs. We solved this through rigorous information architecture and data visualization, making dense financial content legible across every context. During our work on Mobile Trader, we increased TDA's average mobile monthly and daily active users by 21% and 41%, respectively.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"We couldn't have done this without Big Human's support, one of the best creative agencies I've ever worked with."

Digital Strategy

A high-performing enterprise website starts with a clear digital strategy. Big Human's strategy team helps organizations align their online presence with business goals from audience targeting and content architecture to analytics and long-term growth planning. If your site needs a stronger strategic foundation, we can help build it.

Branding

Consistent branding across a complex enterprise site requires more than a style guide. Big Human's branding services help organizations develop the visual language, messaging frameworks, and design systems that keep every page — and every team — aligned. It's the work that makes enterprise web design hold together over time.

Our Enterprise Web Design Capabilities

Custom User-Centric Design & Redesign

Custom User-Centric Design & Redesign

Every enterprise website we build starts with the user. We take the time to understand who your audience is, how they navigate, and what they need from your site. From there, we design user-friendly experiences tailored to your specific business context: your industry, your brand, your goals. Whether you're building from scratch or undertaking a full redesign, we treat user-centric design as the foundation.

UX Research & Information Architecture

UX Research & Information Architecture

Good information architecture is largely invisible. Users just know where to go. Getting there takes real research: understanding user needs and behavior, mapping existing content, identifying gaps, and structuring intuitive navigation that serves multiple audiences without confusion. Information architecture is especially critical for enterprise organizations, where content complexity is high and user types are diverse. We map the full picture before a single page is designed, which prevents the costly restructuring that often happens mid-project.

Design Systems & Brand-Aligned UI

Design Systems & Brand-Aligned UI

A design system is what separates a website that scales from one that breaks under its own weight. We build design systems that codify your visual language — typography, color schemes, component libraries, spacing rules, interaction patterns — into a reusable, documented framework. Every element connects back to brand identity, so consistency is built in. The systems we create are designed to be used by teams: clear enough for non-designers to follow, flexible enough for designers to build on.

Responsive & Mobile-First Design

Responsive & Mobile-First Design

Enterprise websites have to work everywhere — across screen sizes, mobile devices, browsers, and contexts. We often design mobile-first, which means the mobile experience is the starting point, not an afterthought. From there, we scale up to tablet and desktop, making deliberate decisions at every breakpoint — including how fonts, spacing, and layout adapt — rather than simply shrinking a desktop layout. Responsive design at the enterprise level requires close collaboration between design and engineering. Our integrated team can handle both.

Our Enterprise Web Design Process

Enterprise web design projects are complex by nature. There are multiple stakeholders, extended timelines, technical constraints, and high stakes. Our process is built to manage that complexity without slowing things down. Here's how a typical enterprise web design engagement unfolds.

Discovery, Stakeholder Research & Audit
Information Architecture & UX Strategy
Visual Design, Prototyping & Brand Alignment
Build, QA & Launch
Ongoing Optimization

Discovery, Stakeholder Research & Audit

Every engagement starts with a thorough discovery phase. We conduct stakeholder interviews, review existing analytics and user behavior data, and audit your current site for structural, UX, and technical issues. This gives us a clear picture of what's working, what's not, and where your website needs the most attention.

We also use this phase to align on business goals and success metrics. What does a successful enterprise website look like for your organization specifically? That answer shapes everything that comes next.

Information Architecture & UX Strategy

With research in hand, we map out the information architecture: the structural blueprint for how content is organized and how users navigate. We define user flows, hierarchy, and navigation patterns before a single visual design decision is made.

This phase often surfaces strategic decisions that need stakeholder alignment: what content belongs on the site, what should be retired, and how to structure the experience for multiple audience types. Getting this right early prevents expensive revisions later.

Visual Design, Prototyping & Brand Alignment

Visual design brings the strategy to life. We develop the design language grounded in your brand identity. Everything is built to the design system, so components can be reused and extended.

Prototypes at this stage allow stakeholders to interact with the design before development begins. We collect feedback, iterate, and get to alignment before anything gets built (which is significantly faster and less costly than revising during development).

Build, QA & Launch

Once designs are approved, our engineering team builds the site against the design system. We work in modern frontend frameworks and integrate with your CMS and other tools in your ecosystem. QA is thorough: cross-browser testing, responsive design validation across screen sizes, performance checks, and accessibility audits against WCAG standards.

Launch is coordinated carefully to avoid disrupting your current online presence. We plan the migration, handle redirects, and monitor performance in the days following go-live.

Ongoing Optimization

Enterprise websites require ongoing attention. Many of our enterprise clients engage us on a retainer basis for ongoing design support — which allows for faster iteration and a team that stays deeply familiar with the product. Post-launch, we track performance metrics, run A/B tests on key flows, and make iterative improvements based on real user behavior. Analytics and heatmaps help us understand what's working and what needs refinement over time.

Enterprise Web Design Expertise

Whether you need a new landing page strategy, a fully governed design system, WCAG-compliant accessibility, or a CMS that your marketing team can actually use, these are areas we've worked in extensively.

Services Hero

Design System Development

A well-built design system is one of the highest-leverage investments an enterprise organization can make. It reduces design and development time, enforces brand consistency across teams, and makes onboarding new contributors dramatically faster. We build design systems in Figma, documented for both designers and developers, with components that map directly to production code. Our design system work includes token libraries, component documentation, usage guidelines, and handoff specs — complex enough to support international brand adaptation and practical enough for day-to-day use.

Landing Page & Campaign Design

Landing pages are where digital marketing strategy meets conversion design. We design landing pages built around a single, clear objective — whether that's lead generation, product sign-up, or campaign conversion. Every element is considered: headline hierarchy, CTAs, form design, social proof, and page speed. We design pages that earn the click.For enterprise organizations running multiple campaigns simultaneously, we also establish landing page templates and design systems that allow teams to produce consistent, on-brand pages at scale.

Accessibility & WCAG Compliance

Accessibility is a legal requirement for many enterprise organizations and a quality signal for all of them. We design with WCAG 2.1 AA standards as a baseline. This covers color contrast, keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, and semantic HTML. Accessibility is built in from the design phase, not added as a remediation step after development. For organizations in regulated industries or with public-sector audiences, we can conduct formal accessibility audits and produce documentation to support compliance requirements.

Multi-Site & Multi-Brand Design

Enterprise organizations often manage multiple sites — across brands, regions, languages, or product lines — with varying degrees of shared infrastructure. We've designed multi-site systems that balance centralized governance with the flexibility individual teams need: shared design systems, localized templates, and CMS architectures that allow regional customization without brand drift. Multi-brand design at this scale requires rigorous systems thinking alongside creative craft.

Enterprise CMS Design & Integration

A well-designed enterprise website is only as useful as the content management system behind it. We design CMS architectures that match how your editorial and marketing teams actually work: flexible enough for diverse content types, structured enough to maintain consistency. We work with WordPress, Contentful, Drupal, and Webflow, among others, and can help you choose the right platform for your organization's needs and workflows. CMS design is often overlooked in enterprise web projects, but it's what determines whether your team can publish efficiently after launch. We treat it as a first-class design problem.

Website Migration & Platform Redesign

Migrating an enterprise website is a high-risk project that most organizations underestimate. Done poorly, it can mean lost SEO and AEO rankings, broken user flows, and disrupted revenue. Done well, it's an opportunity to modernize the platform, clean up technical debt, and build something that serves the business for years. We manage migrations end to end: content audits, URL mapping, CMS configuration, redirect strategies, and post-launch monitoring.

Tech & Tools We Specialize In

The tools we use are chosen to match the complexity of enterprise work — not because they're trendy, but because they're proven in high-stakes environments. Here's what's in our standard toolkit.

Design: Figma

Design: Figma

Figma is our primary design tool for enterprise projects. It's built for collaboration, version control, and design system management in ways that make it well-suited to large teams. We use Figma to build component libraries, run design reviews, and manage the handoff to engineering.

CMS Platforms: WordPress, Contentful, Drupal, Webflow

CMS Platforms: WordPress, Contentful, Drupal, Webflow

We work across the leading enterprise CMS platforms and can advise on platform selection based on your content model, team structure, and technical requirements. WordPress, Contentful, Drupall, and Webflow are all in our toolkit. We configure CMS platforms to match how your team works. We’ll strategize with you to find the right fit.

Frontend Frameworks: React, Next.js, HTML/CSS

Frontend Frameworks: React, Next.js, HTML/CSS

For complex enterprise builds, we work primarily in React and Next.js. These frameworks give us the performance, modularity, and scalability that enterprise-level websites require. All of our frontend builds are responsive by default, accessible by design, and optimized for traditional and AI-driven search engines. We work closely with design throughout the development process to ensure implementation fidelity.

Analytics & Testing: Google Analytics, Hotjar, A/B Testing

Analytics & Testing: Google Analytics, Hotjar, A/B Testing

Launching the site is the beginning, not the end. We instrument enterprise websites with Google Analytics for traffic and conversion tracking, and tools like Hotjar for behavioral insights (heatmaps, session recordings, and user feedback). This data informs the ongoing optimization work that happens post-launch. We also run structured A/B tests on high-traffic pages and key conversion flows. Rather than guessing what will improve conversion rates, we test it.

Why Partner With Big Human?

There's no shortage of agencies that can build an enterprise website. The difference is whether they understand the organizational complexity, technical constraints, and strategic stakes that come with that kind of project. A well-executed enterprise site builds trust with every audience it touches — across every touchpoint, on every device. Here's what we bring to every engagement.

Strategy-First Approach to Enterprise Design

We don't start with wireframes. We start with questions: What are your business goals? Who are your users? What does success look like in six months, and in three years? The answers shape everything from information architecture to the CMS we recommend. Design is our medium, but strategy is how we approach every problem.

This means our enterprise clients don't just get a new website. They get a site that's built for something specific — and a team that understands why.

Design & Development Under One Roof

One of the most common failure points in enterprise web projects is the handoff between design and engineering. When those two disciplines live in different agencies, things can get lost. Designs get simplified in development. Specs get misinterpreted. The final product drifts from the original vision. At Big Human, design and engineering work together from day one. Our integrated team means faster timelines, higher implementation fidelity, and a final product that actually reflects the design work.

15+ Years Designing for Complex Organizations

We've spent over 15 years working with enterprise clients across finance, media, technology, healthcare, and consumer brands. That history means we've seen the organizational dynamics that shape these projects — the stakeholder misalignment, the legacy content debt, the mid-project pivots — and we know how to navigate them.

Scalable Design Systems Built to Last

We build design systems that are meant to outlast the initial engagement. That means thorough documentation, clean component architecture, and handoff processes that set your internal teams up to maintain and extend the system independently. We've seen too many design systems that look great in Figma and fall apart in production. Ours are built to actually be used.

Trusted by Global Brands & Growing Enterprises

Our client work spans TD Ameritrade, Rockefeller Center, Netflix, and a range of high-growth startups. These are relationships built on delivering real results in complex, high-stakes environments. We've worked with organizations managing global brand rollouts, multi-site ecosystems, and audiences in the millions.

Award-Winning Creative & UX Teams

Our design team has spent 15+ years building products and websites that are both visually sharp and genuinely usable. We've pioneered design approaches that became industry standards, and we bring that level of craft to every project.

Long-Term Design Support & Iteration

Enterprise websites require sustained attention. Post-launch, we offer ongoing design support through retainer engagements — providing design resources on a flexible basis as your needs evolve. This is how our longest client relationships work: we stay close to the product, iterate based on data, and grow with the organization over time.

Enterprise Websites Built for Scale and Impact

An enterprise website is one of the most visible and consequential investments your organization makes. Done well, it's a growth engine: generating leads, reinforcing brand identity, and serving diverse audiences across every touchpoint. Done poorly, it becomes a liability: hard to maintain, slow to evolve, and disconnected from what your business actually needs. At Big Human, we build enterprise websites that hold up — technically, visually, and strategically — over the long term. Reach out to start a conversation.

Ready to Elevate Your Enterprise Website Experience?

Enterprise web design is a significant undertaking, but it doesn't have to be an opaque one. The projects that go well are the ones where goals are clear, stakeholders are aligned, and the agency you're working with has done this before.

At Big Human, we've spent 15+ years designing enterprise websites for organizations that can't afford to get it wrong — from global financial platforms to fast-scaling consumer brands.

We bring strategy, design, and engineering under one roof, which means fewer handoffs, higher fidelity, and a final product that actually reflects the vision. Whether you're redesigning a legacy platform, building out a scalable design system, or launching an enterprise site from scratch — we'd love to hear what you're working on.

If that sounds like what you need, let's talk.
