Studio

A small studio with a strict method.

We build static sites by hand from a system we wrote ourselves, and we skip the parts of modern web work that make sites slow, generic, and rented.

Based in the Southeast

How we work

4 things worth knowing

The direction comes from you

Your palette comes from your signage, your van, your dining room. The photography is of your actual work. Nothing gets picked because it was sitting on a shelf.

Built by hand, start to finish

Static HTML, self-hosted fonts, no page builder, no theme. Sites load in under a second because there's nothing in them but your content.

Checked before launch

5 checks we wrote ourselves can block a site from going out: tired copy, a machine-made look, a font that won't load, a link that would go dead, a color that flashes on load. All 5, and where they came from.

You own every account

Domain, hosting, analytics, all in your name. Scoped price, quoted first, half on launch. Nothing breaks if you leave.

Same method, 3 looks

Nothing shared but the rules

The 5 checks and the build order are identical on every project. What comes out the other end belongs to the business it was made for.

The person behind it

A note from the founder

Before I built websites for local businesses, I ran one: a service company with a van, a shop, 300 recurring customers, and payroll every Friday.

That business needed a booking system, so I built one. It needed pricing that held up when a customer pushed back, so I built the menu and the upsells around it. It needed its processes written down so a new hire could run a job without me standing there, so I wrote them. None of that was a website. All of it is what your website has to support, which is why my first questions are how you get paid and who answers the phone.

I've done the same work inside other companies since, across several industries, building the customer systems and operating rules before there was a site to point at. The site comes last. That order is the whole method.

The build, run by run

8 stages
Run 0

Scope and quote

What the business actually is, who buys from it, and which pages that calls for. Priced and agreed before anything else happens.

Run 1

Intake

You fill out one packet: facts, logins, photos. We test every login ourselves, and run a shot-list call if the photos are thin.

Run 2

Foundations

Page structure, and the tracking plan decided up front: which actions count as a lead and what each one is called. Those hooks get written into the templates as they're built, because adding them later means touching every page.

Run 3

Art direction

Palette, type, and section rhythm drawn from your own material. One direction, presented once, revised once.

Run 4

Copy

Copy written from verified intake facts only, then run against the banned-phrase list.

Run 5

Assemble and QA

Photos processed to responsive sizes, pages built, then analytics and tags wired to the hooks from Run 2. Speed, links, forms, and structured data all validated.

Run 6

Launch

DNS cutover, HTTPS verified, sitemap submitted, search engines pinged. Nothing goes live until a real phone tap and a real form submit both show up in analytics while we watch.

Run 7

Handover

A credentials document, a written list of everything that exists and where, and a 30-day check on indexing and tracking.
