The First South African Design & Technology Studio Selected in Lovable’s Inaugural Global Certified Partner Cohort

The South African design and technology studio has been certified as an official Lovable Partner, delivering end-to-end implementation for ambitious digital products.

Johannesburg, South Africa — 5 August 2026 — Cathedral Design has been selected as part of the first global cohort of certified Lovable Partners, becoming the first studio in South Africa to receive the designation.

The appointment recognises Cathedral’s experience in using Lovable to design, build and deploy production-ready digital products for companies looking to move from an initial idea to a fully implemented platform.

As a certified partner, Cathedral will provide an end-to-end Lovable service covering product strategy, user experience, interface design, application development, systems integration, deployment and ongoing optimisation. This allows organisations to benefit from the speed of Lovable while retaining the design quality, technical structure and implementation support required for enterprise-level projects.

“Lovable has fundamentally changed how quickly strong digital products can move from concept to deployment. Becoming part of its first global partner cohort gives Cathedral a direct role in helping organisations use that capability properly; not simply to create prototypes, but to build considered, scalable products ready for real-world use,” said Michael, Founder and Design Principal of Cathedral Design.

The partnership strengthens Cathedral’s broader position as a design and implementation studio working across brand, digital systems and emerging AI technology. Cathedral will work closely with clients and the Lovable team to deliver new platforms, internal tools, customer portals and custom applications from initial definition through to launch.
