WHAT WE BELIEVE
Good work doesn’t need a translator. If we have to explain why it’s good, it isn’t.
We keep the team small so the people who pitch you are the people who do the work. No account layers, no telephone game — just designers and writers who care a weird amount about kerning, and a phone number that rings at a real desk.
HOW WE WORK
A few rules we don’t break.
01
One team, start to finish.
The same people who plan your project are the ones who execute it—no handoffs, no surprises.
02
Strategy before pixels.
We figure out what to say before we obsess over how it looks.
03
Built for the long term.
We focus on sustainable solutions, not temporary wins.
THE CREW
Six humans, zero middlemen.
Lauren Schwartz
ART DIRECTOR
Professional pixel wrangler, occasional mind reader. Turns ideas into visuals people actually remember.
Ashley Curtis
OPERATIONS MANAGER & COPY WRITER
Answers your calls and questions. Writes the words that do the work.
Meredith DiCandia
DESIGN LEAD
Turns strategy into logos, identities, and the occasional very heated kerning debate.
COAST TO COAST
Where our clients call home.
We run out of one studio in Houghton, MI — but our work doesn’t stay put. From the Pacific Northwest to the Eastern Seaboard, here’s where the brands we’ve built are based.
