The problem
A small business needing a new website usually has three bad options. Hire a freelance designer + developer (£3,000–15,000, 4–12 weeks). Buy a template builder (Squarespace, Wix) and spend evenings wrestling with drag-and-drop tools that produce something only marginally different from every other template-built site. Or skip it and live with a site that's been "due for a refresh" for three years.
Landing pages for marketing campaigns are even worse. Each new campaign needs a different page. You can't justify a designer for each one. So most teams either reuse the same generic landing page (kills conversion) or skip the campaign entirely.
Claude Design changes the equation. Brief it on your business, target audience, and the page structure you want. In under 30 minutes you have a complete, branded, conversion-focused page. Export to working HTML or hand the folder to a developer. The economics that previously made "a designer for every landing page" impossible just collapsed.
What Claude Design does for websites
- Designs full multi-page websites with consistent navigation, branding, and structure
- Produces conversion-focused landing pages tailored to a specific campaign or audience
- Handles frontend component design (forms, pricing tables, testimonial sections, hero blocks)
- Generates the supporting visual assets — icons, illustrations, photo treatments
- Exports working HTML/CSS that you can host directly or hand to a developer to refine
- Refines through inline comments — no need to learn Webflow, Framer, or Figma
How to set it up
1
Capture your brand & audience
Brand colours, fonts, logo (or ask Claude to suggest a palette). One sentence on your target audience. One sentence on the action you want them to take. 5 minutes.
2
List the pages or sections
For a full site: 5–7 pages typically (Home, About, Services, Case Studies, Blog, Contact). For a landing page: hero, problem, solution, social proof, pricing, FAQ, CTA. Brief Claude on what's needed.
3
Drop in reference sites
Optional but powerful. Show Claude 2–3 sites whose aesthetic you like (a screenshot URL works). Claude pulls structure, colour, and typography patterns to inform its output.
4
Generate & iterate
First draft of the full site in 15–20 minutes. Refine with inline comments ("make the hero more confident", "add a comparison table here"). 15–30 minutes of refinement gets it to launch-ready.
5
Export & host
Export to HTML/CSS folder. Host on Vercel, Netlify, or any static host (free). For CMS use: import to Webflow/Framer/Squarespace. For developers: hand them the folder as a high-fidelity starting point.

Frequently asked questions
Can Claude Design build a full website?
Yes. From a brief describing your business, target audience, and the sections you want, Claude Design produces a full multi-page website mockup in 10-20 minutes. Exports to HTML/CSS folder, individual page PDFs, or screen-by-screen images for further work in Figma or your CMS.
Can it design landing pages for marketing campaigns?
This is Claude Design's sweet spot. Brief it with the campaign goal, target audience, key proposition, and CTA — you get a complete conversion-focused landing page in minutes. Perfect for paid traffic landing pages where speed matters and the budget for a designer doesn't justify the timeline.
What's the difference between frontend design and website design?
Frontend design typically refers to the UI components and patterns (buttons, forms, navigation, cards) that make up a web interface. Website design is the broader composition — full pages, layouts, content flow. Claude Design handles both. You can ask for component-level work ("design a pricing card component with 3 tiers") or full-site work ("design a 5-page consultancy website").
Does the HTML actually work?
Yes — the HTML/CSS export is functional code, not just a mockup. You can host it directly via Vercel, Netlify, or any static host. For production sites, most teams use it as a starting point that a developer refines for performance, accessibility, and CMS integration. For internal pages or quick landing pages, the export is genuinely ready to deploy.
Can I update the site after Claude builds it?
Yes. Three approaches: (1) Keep iterating in Claude Design with inline comments and conversational updates. (2) Export to HTML and edit in any code editor. (3) Export and import to your CMS (Webflow, Framer, Squarespace) for ongoing visual editing. Claude Design isn't a closed system — it produces standard formats you can take anywhere.
