Interior Studio — Praha, Česká Republika
MARTINA DESIGN is already in the top tier of Czech interior design studios: custom-built site, bilingual CZ/EN, distinctive Josefin Sans typography, and an emerging MD CLUB community concept that no competitor has attempted. These are real advantages that the market doesn't yet reflect in search visibility.
The critical problem is the first-visit experience: a cookie consent modal followed immediately by an email capture popup is a double barrier that kills conversion rates. Studies show every modal that appears before the user has seen the content reduces session length by 15-25%. The studio's best work never gets seen because visitors are intercepted before they can engage.
Fix the entry experience, lead with MD CLUB as a brand differentiator, and add a visible process section — and MARTINA DESIGN moves from "good studio site" to a market-leading position that the technical investment deserves.
The market benchmark. Custom PerspektivSerif typefaces, Karlín showroom (arkhe.SPACE), Shopify-powered, brand partnerships with Vitra, Montana, Fest Amsterdam. Strong process walkthrough and "Design & Build" positioning.
MARTINA DESIGN can win: No competitor has built a community/club. MD CLUB is the moat.
SEO leader. #1 Google ranking for "interior designer Prague." Luxury project management positioning. Bilingual. No community, no membership concept.
Lifestyle boutique. Pařížská boutique, Cormorant Garamond, free consultation CTA. Physical shop gives lifestyle credibility but community depth is absent.
Most similar to MD CLUB vision — but lacks the digital community layer.
Process leader + pricing pioneer. 490 CZK/m² published. 5-step process. European factory direct connections. Technically competent but dated visual design.
Learn: MARTINA DESIGN has no visible process section. Add one — it's the highest-conversion element on design studio sites.
Architecture-first minimalism. Clean Czech brand. No community, no membership, no club concept. MARTINA DESIGN is technically ahead on every dimension except search ranking.

Cookie consent + email capture on first visit is a conversion killer. Put cookie consent in a bottom bar. Move MD CLUB signup to a dedicated landing page or a section below the fold. Let the portfolio load immediately.
No Czech interior design studio has a community or membership concept. This is the biggest differentiator in the market — but it's being launched via a popup, not a featured section. MD CLUB deserves a dedicated hero section explaining what members get.
The site's first-load experience involves no process transparency. Arkhe shows 5 steps, de-brut shows 5 stages. Visitors spending significant money need to see that the studio has a system. Add a numbered process section between hero and portfolio.
