we make things.
a small design studio, currently based in windhoek, namibia, and working with people anywhere. websites, posters, logos, short films. if it needs to look good and make sense, we can probably help.
thanks for poking around.
everything here is black and white, on purpose. the little icons aren’t pictures. your browser draws them dot by dot while the page loads.
they’re real desktop icons, too: pick one up and put it somewhere else. they don’t mind.
party trick: drag a photo from your computer anywhere onto this page. it comes back made of dots.

no price list. on purpose.
every job’s different, so we don’t guess a number before we know what you want. tell us what you’re after, we’ll ask questions until it makes sense, then you get one fixed price.
- 01you reach out
- a few lines by email
- or the project form
- 02we talk it through
- what it’s for
- who it’s for
- what you like
- what you don’t
- 03you get one price
- and a date
- in writing
- before anything starts
the price we quote is the price you pay.
start a project →how much does a website cost?
it depends on what you need, so there’s no price list. tell us what you’re after, we’ll talk it through, then send a fixed quote. the price we quote is the price you pay.
why no price list?
two jobs that sound the same rarely are. we’d rather understand yours than guess a number and correct it later.
how does payment work?
half up front to get going, half when it goes live.
how many rounds of changes do i get?
we agree on it up front, so there are no surprises.
do you do logos and branding too?
yes. logos, a full brand look, social media templates. tell us what you need and it goes in the price.
i don’t have any copy. can you write it?
yes. or send us your notes and we’ll shape them.
can you sort out the web address and hosting?
yes, we set it all up. you pay the yearly fees straight to the providers, not to us.
what happens once it’s live?
we can stay on for updates, fixes and small changes. or we give you the code and you take it from there.
how long does it take?
about 1–2 weeks for a landing page, 3–4 for a multi-page site, 5–6 for a shop. the quote comes with a date.
what do you need from me to start?
a yes to the quote, the deposit, your content (text, images, logo) and a rough idea of what you like.
where are you based?
currently windhoek, namibia, but we work with people all over. it all happens over email and video calls.
do you work with people outside namibia?
yes, that’s most of the point. where you are doesn’t change much.
why “æ”?
the e is silent. say it like “a design studio”.
