ABOUT STONEHUT
Experienced digital thinking, built around real business needs.
Stonehut is a South African web design and digital solutions studio founded in 2002. For more than 24 years, we’ve helped businesses plan, design and build websites, eCommerce platforms, custom systems and connected digital solutions that support how they actually work.
THE PERSON BEHIND STONEHUT
Led by experience, shaped through collaboration.
Stonehut is led by Gill Balfour, who has worked closely with businesses across industries to turn ideas, requirements and operational challenges into practical digital solutions. The way we work is personal, considered and hands-on: we listen carefully, ask the right questions and help clients make clear decisions about what to build, what to simplify and what to prepare for next.
WHAT MAKES STONEHUT DIFFERENT
More than websites.
- 01We understand both design and business process.
- 02We work across websites, eCommerce, systems, integrations and AI.
- 03We choose platforms based on the requirement, not habit.
- 04We build for usability, maintainability and long-term growth.
- 05We value clear communication and long-term client relationships.
OUR APPROACH
How we work with clients.
Every project starts with understanding: your business, your users, your current challenges and what success needs to look like. From there, we shape the right approach, whether that means a focused business website, a more complex eCommerce platform, a custom digital system, an automation workflow or an AI-supported experience.

LOOKING AHEAD
Building for the web as it changes.
The way people find and use websites is changing. Search, AI, automation and connected systems are becoming part of the everyday digital experience. Stonehut helps businesses build platforms that are clear, useful and ready to adapt, from traditional Google visibility to AI-assisted discovery and smarter internal workflows.
