Selected partners — last 18 months
We work with eight to twelve clients a year. One senior team per project — strategist, designer, writer, motion. No account layer. No moodboard rounds. The work either ships and earns its place in the world, or it doesn’t leave the studio. That’s the only standard we hold ourselves to.

They named us, built the brand, shipped the site, and pushed back on three of my worst ideas. The brand has aged into the company, not out of it.
Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed team. No retainers. No hidden change orders.
Brand + site for pre-seed/seed founders.
Full rebrand + launch for Series A/B.
Embedded design partnership for ambitious in-house teams.

Occasionally, in lieu of up to 30% of fee, for pre-seed founders we believe in. By mutual decision, not a default.
Hannah, Daniel, or one of the seven senior designers and strategists on staff. No juniors, no offshore subcontracting, no white-labelled freelancers. The team you meet in week one is the team that ships.
We accept roughly one in nine inquiries. The filter is: ambition of the founder, originality of the category, and whether the brand can outlive the trend that birthed it.
Sometimes. We hold one Launch slot per quarter for urgent founders. Email us with the deadline — we’ll tell you honestly within 48 hours.
