Websites and brands
built to be remembered.
Custom websites, branding, SEO, and social content for service-based small businesses — contractors, lawyers, accountants, restaurants, clinics. Two-person studio. No templates. You own everything we build.
A studio, not a factory.
We take fewer projects on purpose. The same two people who design your logo write your home page, code your site, and run your launch month on social. Yours gets attention, not a checklist.
Four things, done well.
(We do four things deliberately. Depth over breadth.)
We don't hide our numbers.
Based on completed studio projects and post-launch client reporting. Updated each quarter.
What we promise.
And what we don't do.
Six concrete commitments that show up on every project — no fine print, no surprise add-ons.
You own everything.
Code, design files, social accounts, copy, analytics. Handed over at launch. No platform lock-in, no monthly fee to access your own work.
No templates. Ever.
Hand-coded Next.js. Custom design. Built from a blank page around your business — never a theme, never a page builder, never recycled.
Performance is a baseline.
98+ Lighthouse, AA accessibility, sub-2s LCP on a 4G connection. Standard, not premium. We don't ship sites we wouldn't want to use ourselves.
Fixed scope. Fixed price.
You get a written scope, a written timeline, a written number — before any work starts. If anything has to change, we talk first. No surprise invoices.
We don't lock you in.
No required retainer to keep your site running. Once it ships, it's yours, fully. Want ongoing care? Available, but never required.
We don't fake proof.
No fabricated testimonials. No invented case studies. If we haven't done something, we'll say so. Every metric on this site is grounded in real studio work.
Slow enough to be careful.
Fast enough to ship.
A brief note.
If you're a contractor, lawyer, accountant, or running a small service business, you've probably been burned by an "agency" before. The signs are familiar: long timelines, vague scope, work that doesn't look like the proposal.
We do the opposite. Direct communication. Fixed scope and price. Work shipped to a clear standard. No hidden process, no jargon-heavy decks, no lengthy proposal theater.
If that's the kind of partner you're looking for, let's talk.
- Direct line to the people building the work
- Fixed scope and price, not hourly billing
- 98+ Lighthouse, AA accessibility baseline
- 30 days of post-launch tweaks included
- Full ownership of code, designs, and accounts
The four problems
we design against.
Every project we take on starts with one of these. The site you get is built specifically to fix it — not a redesign for the sake of looking new.
Problem
Visitors don't understand who the site is for.
The fix
Sharper value prop, scannable hero, conversion-led page architecture.
What we design for
More qualified inquiries. Less confusion. Faster decisions.
Problem
The site is slow, breaks on phones, or feels heavy.
The fix
Hand-coded Next.js, image discipline, real Core Web Vitals work.
What we design for
Lower bounce rate. Better rankings. More usable on every device.
Problem
Nobody finds the site for the searches that actually matter.
The fix
Buyer-intent keyword work, semantic structure, technical clean-up.
What we design for
Steady organic traffic. More inbound leads. Less ad spend dependency.
Problem
The visual identity looks generic or could belong to anyone.
The fix
A distinctive type system, color discipline, and tone of voice.
What we design for
Higher perceived value. Stronger recall. Premium positioning.
Common questions.
How long does a project take?+
A focused brochure website runs 4–6 weeks from kickoff to launch. A full brand identity runs 2–3 weeks. SEO and social are ongoing programs that show first results in 60–90 days.
Will I own everything we build?+
Yes — every line of code, every logo file, every social account. We hand over the keys at the end of every project. No platform lock-in, ever.
Can you redesign or take over an existing site?+
Often. We start with a free 20-minute audit call to figure out whether a refresh, a rebuild, or just a tune-up is the right call for you.
Do you only work with certain industries?+
We work with owner-operated businesses across most categories — retail, food and beverage, professional services, trades, hospitality. If you care, we'll consider it.
