Then, we shape it.
You review the direction before we build it out. We agree on feedback rounds and keep decisions clear as the site takes shape.

Together, we launch.
We review the site together, check the key journeys on desktop and mobile, and explain the agreed handoff and ongoing costs.
03 / Before we begin
Good questions.
Straight answers.
A good working relationship starts with knowing what to expect.
A small studio.
A considered approach.
For business owners who want a distinctive website and a clear conversation about how to get there.
Talk to the studio ↗What will my project include?
Your proposal sets out the pages, features, content responsibilities, review rounds, and launch work. We clarify what’s included before you commit.
How much does a website cost?
It depends on the size and complexity of the site. Share your goals and a comfortable budget, and we’ll discuss an appropriate scope. Hosting, domain, and paid-service costs are identified separately.
Do I need all my content ready?
Start with what you have: your services, logo, photos, and any existing website. We’ll identify the gaps and agree on who supplies the content before setting a schedule.
What happens after launch?
We agree on access, handoff, and any ongoing support in the proposal. Future updates and maintenance are discussed separately so you know what to expect.
Are the portfolio sites client projects?
They’re original, self-initiated concepts that demonstrate different design directions and interactions. They’re clearly labeled and do not represent client endorsements or business results.
