A clear beginning makes for better work
What types of businesses do you work with?
We are especially at home with hospitality, food and beverage, lifestyle, culture, fashion and creative businesses led by people who care about their point of view.
Do you provide both branding and website development?
Yes. We work across strategy, identity, digital design and interactive development, either as one connected engagement or at the point that is most useful.
Can you redesign an existing brand or website?
Yes. A transformation can begin with the foundations, the digital experience, or both together when the business has outgrown what it currently shows.
How long does a typical project take?
The right timeline follows the scope and decisions involved. We define a practical pace together before work begins.
Do you work with clients outside France?
Yes. The studio is based in Nantes and works with collaborators and clients wherever a thoughtful working relationship can happen.
What happens after launch?
We can support the launch, hand over a clear system, or stay involved as the brand and digital experience evolve.
