SharePoint intranet design
How to make SharePoint Online feel on-brand, modern, and worth opening - without assuming unlimited budget or custom development.
This hub collects Dexy's guides on visual design, layout discipline, and employee-facing intranets. For fixed-fee build, see Intranet design & build.
Summary
A well-designed SharePoint intranet uses clear hierarchy, strong imagery, repeatable templates, and consistent navigation. Most intranets look generic because they were configured once, not designed as an employee experience. Organizations that care about brand and credibility need internal tools that match the quality of their external presence.
Dexy designs and builds SharePoint intranets on Microsoft 365 as a fixed fee. See Pricing.

FAQ
Can SharePoint match our public website?
It can align on brand (type, color, imagery, layout habits). It does not need pixel parity with a marketing site.
Do we need custom web parts?
Often no for v1. Enhanced packages add custom parts when findability or news needs exceed out-of-the-box layouts.
What does a project cost?
Fixed fee, from as little as $6,000 for a smaller company with limited scope. Larger companies with greater scope will be higher. We quote after a scoping call, before work starts. See Pricing.
