Stories worth
sharing.

Branding and websites for non-profits and small businesses doing real work in the world.

What we do

Two things, done well.

Brand identity. Website design and build. The two things most small organizations need to look as credible online as they actually are in the world.

Why us

Design that fits how your organization actually runs.

Most studios designing for non-profits are designers learning the business side. We're the opposite — an MBA and an MSW (Brent and Kate) who came into design from operations and people-systems careers and brought those lenses with us.

For you, that means: a brand and a site that fit how your organization actually runs, not just how they look in screenshots. Systems your team can use without us in the room. And strategic judgment behind every design decision — not just stylistic preference.

About

Not designers who learned the work.
Operators who learned design.

We're an MBA and an MSW who design brand identities and websites for non-profits and small businesses. The hybrid is the point — we understand how the brand will actually be used by the people running the organization, not just how it looks in a guidelines PDF.

Brent Royer

Brent

Brand strategy, design, technical build

Brent makes sure your brand and website don't just look good — they actually fit how your organization runs. Thirty years in technology, operations, and leadership (MBA in IT Management, certified Korn Ferry Leadership Architect) means he sees your brand challenge as a business challenge first: who you serve, how decisions get made, what your team will actually need to use. That perspective shapes every project, from the first discovery question to the final guidelines document.

Kate

Brand strategy, creative direction, people-systems perspective

Kate makes sure the brand you ship feels true — to your audience, to your team, to what your organization actually is. Trained in social work (MSW) and certified in HR strategy (SHRM), she's spent her career understanding how people work, how culture shows up, and what separates an authentic brand from a stock one. That eye narrows twenty design directions down to the one that actually fits the organization in front of her.

What the hybrid gets you

Strategy and craft, in the same conversation.

Most studios designing for non-profits are designers learning the business side. We're the opposite — and that changes what you get.

You get someone who can talk about your operating model and your brand identity in the same conversation, because both shape each other. You get brand systems built to be used by the people actually running your organization, not just admired by other designers. You get strategic judgment with creative craft — not just stylistic preference.

We're a small practice on purpose. One real project at a time. No account managers, no hand-offs, no funnel.
