Digital Ecology Meets Performance
We craft high-performance websites with a commitment to low-carbon development and digital inclusion.
Manifesto: Creating a Fairer Web, One Pixel at a Time
Hello, and welcome to Ekoy Studio. We are a small creative studio committed to digital sustainability. We partner with artists, non-profits, institutions, and impact-driven start-ups.
Did you know? The carbon footprint of the web now accounts for about 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions—nearly as much as the aviation industry—and this figure is set to rise. We don’t claim to change the world, but we do know how to build cleaner, more sustainable, and inclusive websites. So, that’s exactly what we do .
For every project, we seek the perfect balance between creative design and mindful resource use. We view our collaboration as a true partnership, built on communication and radical transparency.
Our Services: Design, Development & Automation
Minimalist & Inclusive Web Design
We create streamlined interfaces that highlight your work, products, or ideas.
-
-
Clarity & Impact: Research shows that average users only scan about 20% to 28% of a page’s content. That’s why our designs are minimalist by strategy: we structure information so your key messages stand out instantly.
-
-
-
Accessibility for All: All our sites follow WCAG accessibility standards to ensure your content is readable by everyone, regardless of ability or device.
-
-
Fluid Animations: Have a complex concept to explain? We use lightweight animations to guide the eye without draining your visitors’ batteries or data.
Eco-Friendly Web Development
We build websites primarily using WordPress and Webflow, choosing the platform that best fits your specific needs.
-
Sustainable Code: From image optimization to clean code architecture, we prioritize low digital footprint.
-
-
Blazing Speed: We optimize every site to be as lightweight as possible. Why? Because loading speed is a pillar of SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Beyond 3 seconds, 40% of visitors will leave your site before even seeing your content.
-
Process Optimization & Automation
Automation shouldn’t be a technical headache. We help you identify repetitive, time-consuming tasks to create seamless, autonomous workflows using responsible no-code tools. Less time spent on tech means more time for your social impact.

Frequently Asked Questions
Sustainable web design is a win-win. Beyond reducing your environmental impact, it directly boosts your Google visibility. A fast, lightweight site provides a better user experience and keeps visitors engaged longer. If you’d like to dive deeper, feel free to explore these web performance resources.
The web should be open to everyone. Some visitors navigate with visual impairments, dyslexia, or photosensitive epilepsy. To ensure digital accessibility, we use features like “prefers-reduced-motion”. If a user has configured their browser to limit motion, our animations adapt automatically. This makes your site fairer and allows you to reach a wider audience.
We are experts in Webflow (using custom Design Systems) and WordPress .
For Webflow, we create a system design to ensure consistency across all pages of your site.
For WordPress, we can create a custom theme from scratch to make sure you get the best performance. Custom theme are longer to develop, and for smaller project (1 to 10 pages) that don’t need advanced design, or any particular functionnality, this might not be necessary. In this case, we use page builders like Divi or Elementor, based on your needs and choices. In all cases, we will make sure your website is optimised.Â
As a remote-first studio, we’ve designed our process to be seamless, no matter where you are based. We use clear, asynchronous communication and simple digital tools to keep you involved without the need for high-carbon travel.
However, we believe that a successful project starts with the right match. Because we value your time and your mission, we are radically honest about our fit: If we think another partner (perhaps someone local to you or with a different technical specialty) would be a better fit, we will tell you honestly. We’ll even help you find the right people to ensure your project becomes a reality. For us, the impact of your work is always more important than the contract.
