// studio program

Six industries, six studios, and no two that look alike.

Each studio is a collection of complete websites for one vertical — cafés, gyms, property, law, clinics, travel. The six screenshots below are the live hubs. Open any two and the range is the first thing you see.

  • 6studios, one industry each
  • 100sites for brands we invented
  • 28unsolicited revamps of real businesses

These are marketing sites, not software. The product work — the applications, the reference builds, the paid engagements under NDA — lives on the portfolio.

// the collections

Six live hubs. Open any two and judge the range yourself.

Nothing in these collections was commissioned. Every card says where its brands come from before you click.

  • The Pass Studio hub: a dark, warm brown home page with cream serif type and an orange accent.
    Cafés & F&BInvented brands

    The Pass Studio

    Websites for cafés, restaurants, bars and food brands, where the job of the page is to make someone hungry enough to book.

    What it covers, and what it shows
    Covers
    Speciality roasters, neighbourhood cafés, wine bars, bakeries and full-service restaurants.
    Shows
    Twenty food brands that share a vertical and share nothing else — twenty type systems, twenty palettes, twenty menus written from scratch.
  • The Rep Studio hub: a near-black home page with condensed white capitals and a neon lime accent.
    Gyms & FitnessInvented brands

    The Rep Studio

    Websites for gyms, studios, boxes and wellness brands, built around the two things people actually look for: the schedule and the first session.

    What it covers, and what it shows
    Covers
    Strength gyms, boxing and combat clubs, pilates and barre studios, run clubs, recovery and wellness spaces.
    Shows
    How far a single vertical stretches. A calisthenics gym and a pilates studio sell to different people, and the sites do not look like relatives.
  • The Close Studio hub: a deep navy home page on a blueprint grid with gold accents and a serif headline.
    Real EstateInvented brands

    The Close Studio

    Websites for brokerages, developers and property brands, where the whole page is working towards one site visit.

    What it covers, and what it shows
    Covers
    Independent brokerages, residential developers, luxury listings, plotted and commercial projects.
    Shows
    Image-heavy layouts that still load fast, and enquiry flows designed as part of the page rather than bolted to the bottom of it.
  • The Docket Studio hub: a cream, document-styled home page with ruled margins, numbered lines and an oxblood accent.
    Legal & Law FirmsInvented brands

    The Docket Studio

    Websites for law firms, advocates and legal-services brands, where credibility has to be readable in about four seconds.

    What it covers, and what it shows
    Covers
    Litigation chambers, corporate and transactional firms, boutique practices, single-advocate offices.
    Shows
    Restraint. Twenty sites in a category where the design is not allowed to be loud, and where the differences have to come from typography and structure.
  • The Rounds Studio hub: a pale mint home page with a clinical green accent and a booking-first layout.
    Clinics & HealthcareInvented brands

    The Rounds Studio

    Websites for clinics, practices and healthcare brands, organised around the one thing a patient came for — how to be seen.

    What it covers, and what it shows
    Covers
    Dental, dermatology, paediatrics, cardiology, physiotherapy, diagnostics and multi-speciality clinics.
    Shows
    Clarity under constraint: dense service information, accessibility that holds up, and a booking path that never goes more than one screen out of reach.
  • Atelier Travel Studio hub: an off-white home page with oversized black grotesk type and an electric blue italic.
    Travel & TourismConcept revamps of real businesses

    Atelier Travel Studio

    Concept revamps for travel and tourism businesses — cliffside stays, dive schools, houseboats, desert safaris and trekking outfits.

    Real businesses. Not one of them commissioned, briefed, approved or paid for this work. Read the full disclosure

    What it covers, and what it shows
    Covers
    Homestays and boutique properties, adventure and dive operators, houseboat fleets, safari and trek companies.
    Shows
    Volume and nerve. Twenty-eight unsolicited redesigns for businesses we approached afterwards, rather than twenty-eight briefs we waited to be handed.
// where these brands come from

Nobody in these studios hired us

100 of these sites are for brands we invented. The other 28 carry the names, locations and identities of real travel businesses in India that did not commission, brief, approve or pay for the work.

Five studios use invented brands

Every business in The Pass Studio, The Rep Studio, The Close Studio, The Docket Studio and The Rounds Studio is made up. Forge & Iron, Marigold & Oat, Calder & Roe — none of them exist. We wrote the brand, the positioning, the services and the copy, then designed a site for it. 100 sites across those five studios, and not one of them was commissioned by anyone.

The travel studio is different, and it needs saying plainly

Atelier Travel Studio does not use invented brands. Its 28 sites carry the names, locations and identities of real travel businesses in India. Those businesses did not commission this work, did not brief it, did not approve it and did not pay for it.

What actually happened: we picked real businesses whose websites we thought were costing them bookings, rebuilt those websites as a concept revamp, and then took the finished work to them. Every Atelier site is an unsolicited redesign — our proposal for a business that never asked for one.

We think that is the right way round for a small team with no logo wall: do the work first, then knock. But it means an Atelier site proves exactly one thing — that we can design and ship at that standard across twenty-eight different travel brands. It is not evidence that any of those businesses engaged us, and we will not let it read that way.

The collection is linked above so you can walk through it. Read it as a portfolio of proposals: 28 redesigns nobody asked for and nobody paid for.

If work on this site was paid for, we say so and name the engagement type. If it was not, we say that too. The studios were not.

// what this is evidence of

Three things the studios prove, and one thing they do not

Design range, throughput and cross-industry work, across 128 finished sites. What they are not is evidence that we have built software for any of these industries.

  • Design range

    Twenty sites inside one vertical is a harder test than twenty across twenty verticals. A boxing club and a pilates studio sell to different people and the pages have to look like it — different type, different palette, different structure.

    Open any two in the same studio and judge it. It is the only part of this worth taking on trust, and you do not have to.

  • Throughput

    128 finished sites, built alongside the product work by the same small team, with only a handful of paid builds running at any point.

    The number worth looking at is not how fast one page went up. It is that the pace held for a whole collection, then held again in the next vertical.

  • We work across industries

    Six categories with genuinely different rules — appetite, urgency, trust, restraint, clarity, wanderlust.

    Learning what a vertical rewards is most of the work, and the studios are where we did that learning in public.

What this is not evidence of

Software experience in these industries. A restaurant site does not make us a restaurant-systems team. For what we have actually built and shipped as software, go to the portfolio.

We will do this pass on the site you already have

Send us the site you have. We will go through it the same way we went through the businesses in these studios — what is costing you enquiries, what we would change first, and what a rebuild would actually involve. Scope first, no obligation to go further.
