03 · How we work

Eleven weeks, one team, no surprises.

Every project runs on the same calendar. You always know what happens this week and what you need to sign off.

Week 0

First call

Thirty minutes. We listen, ask what launch looks like and tell you honestly if we’re the right studio.

Week 1

Workshop and brief

Half a day in a room together, then a written brief you sign off. Nothing gets designed before this.

Weeks 2–5

Identity

Two directions, one decision, then the full system: logo, colour, type, voice.

Weeks 6–10

Website and assets

Design and build side by side in Framer. You see the real site from week six.

Week 11

Launch

A soft launch to friends on Monday, the real one on Tuesday. We’re on call all week.

After

Thirty days of care

Fixes, tweaks and a handover session so your team can run it without us.

08 · Questions

The things people ask on the first call.

Still wondering about something? Email Ellie, our producer, and you’ll hear back the same day.

Most identity projects land between £18k and £45k, websites between £25k and £80k, and a full rebrand with a site between £60k and £140k. We give you a fixed price after the first call, never an hourly estimate.

Eight to sixteen weeks from the first call to launch. Identity work takes six to ten weeks on its own; a website adds four to eight. We plan backwards from your launch date.

Yes. About a third of our clients are pre-seed or seed. For them we offer a Launch Kit: a four-week identity sprint and a one-page site, fixed at £16k.

One creative director, one designer and one developer, from the first workshop to launch day. No hand-offs to a junior team after the pitch.

Often. We hand over a Figma library, a Framer site your team can edit, and a brand book written for the people who will use it every day.

Thirty days of fixes are included. After that, most clients keep us on a light retainer of two to four days a month for campaigns and new pages.

Half of our clients are in Europe and North America. We work in your time zone for workshops and keep everything else in one shared channel.
