The opportunity
Kaboni, a green energy company and Greenpeace partner, needed a website redesign to effectively communicate their work in sustainable development and renewable energy in Burundi. The aim was to attract investors and highlight their projects in rural energy communities.
What I did
Redesign for professionalism and clarity
Focused on a fresh, professional look, emphasizing the projects and people in Burundi.
Imagery and layout
Used compelling imagery to connect users with Kaboni's mission and included more white space for a clean, professional feel.
The outcome
Informative website
The redesign resulted in a more engaging and informative site that effectively communicates Kaboni's projects and appeal to investors.
Increased investor interest
The professional and focused approach in the redesign has attracted more potential investors, crucial for Kaboni's mission in sustainable energy.
This increased interest has led to a major investor partnering with Kaboni in October 2023
Conclusion
This project demonstrates how a strategic redesign can transform a website from dormant into a powerful tool for communication and investor engagement, crucial for any companies survival and growth.
Testimonials
What my clients have to say

Working with Oscar has been an incredible experience.

From the very start, he truly understood my vision and guided me with insightful direction throughout the entire process.

His support and advice were invaluable, and thanks to our collaborative work and his expertise, I now have a stunning visual brand identity from logo to brand guidelines that perfectly represents my new brand, HerWealthCove.

He has an amazing ability to bring ideas to life, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

If you’re looking for a designer who’s not only talented but also deeply invested in making your brand shine, I highly recommend Oscar!

Ed Garner

Leadership Coach

As a professional who changed from fashion entrepreneur to Product Designer, I had taken courses on professional re-direction, but I didn't have clear steps on how they applied specifically to my personal brand as a Product Designer.

With Oscar I learnt what makes me unique as a product designer, my strategy, the niche that makes me happy, and I filled in all the blanks I had and didn't keep wasting time because I didn't have the right strategy for me.

Now I have clear steps to follow day by day, to build a solid, authentic and professional personal brand.

Attracting better projects and opportunities that will make me grow professionally and personally.

Thank you Oscar for giving us value and making it easy and fun!

I worked with Oscar on various projects.

His skills are vast and his way of working immensely professional.

He is the kind of person you ask for a task and he delivers beyond your expectations.

He is not only a designer but valuable team member contributing to all sorts of ideas and projects.

He uses both, heart and soul and you can let him run by himself.

Thank you for all Oscar!

Oscar gave me a hand with my logo and brand guidelines, and his work was mind blowing.

We had a call to understand what he did and what I wanted, and in very few words, he completely understood what I was after, what emotions I wanted to communicate through the logo, and somehow (I say it was magic) he absolutely managed to translate my words into an image that I never thought it could be possible.

It sounds obvious, but I think it is rare to find someone that it is actually designing for the client, instead of designing for himself and what he wanted.

And I think this, coupled with his creative genius, is what makes Oscar so good in what he does.

Camila Godoy Donoso

CEO / Company

Working with Oscar was easy and professional.

Communication was clear and he did what he said he was going to do.

What really stood out to me though, was that I had a sense he really understood what I was going for in the design (and usability), asked good clarifying questions and then implemented it, using his own judgement to handle details but also escalating decisions where appropriate.

One of the smoothest design relationships Ive had.

Highly recommend

Oscar redesigned our Kaboni website and delivered an amazing, professional, completely new website and all the content to our agreed timeline.

By redesigning my practice's website, Oscar truly exceeded my expectations.

He modernized our site, bringing it up to date and greatly simplified our daily doings by integrating an online booking tool.

This reduces the admin and organizational work on our front desk staff immensely.

The collaboration with Oscar was incredibly smooth. He took charge of the project, delivering everything we discussed and more.

I highly recommend Oscar to anyone in need of a competent designer and will definitely return to him for future projects.
