When we started designing Amber Everin's website, we knew it had to match her energy — bold, beautiful, and completely her own. The final design strikes that balance perfectly: distinct and unique, yet elegant and posh, thanks to layered damask patterns and gold filigree details
throughout the site.

D'Elia Auctions is a local business run by husband-and-wife team Mike and Aidan. They came to us looking for a refresh to their auction ecommerce site — something modern, refined, and easy to navigate.

The result? Some serious bid-ness. The new site features clean, seamless content flow from section to section, making it easy to read and digest. The shop is simple and streamlined, so browsing and searching for items is a breeze.

One of our favorite features on this build: a two-way sync with their eBay account. That means Mike and Aidan can list and sell products on their website and eBay simultaneously — no double the work, just double the reach

A very cool project for Encore Monuments, where they make custom memorial products and family trees.

We developed the whole brand from the ground up, with a very elegant and simple logo that carried over to all of the clients products and a fully developed website with some very detailed ordering steps.

A fun website we completed for the New Haven Bird Club. Tons of resources and access to guided and self-guided tours around the picturesque new haven area.

Great group, we learned so much about birds, and we became great friends with the NHBC all volunteer team.

We recently wrapped up designing a full brand identity package for Sesling Precision Group, an all-human forensic transcription company. Working alongside Michael, we brought his brand to life through a logo, business card, 4x6 folded thank you card, and a brand-new website.

Michael came to us with a clear vision: a clean, modern monogram logo that felt bold without losing its elegance. We think the final mark delivers exactly that — thoughtful gradient work and fluid lines give it a sense of movement that really makes it stand out. From there, we carried those signature design elements across every touchpoint — the business card, the thank you card, and the website — tying everything together into a brand identity that feels polished, cohesive, and unmistakably his.

Reimagining 40 years of legacy — one mark at a time.
When Dietz Co. & Architects Dietz & Company Architects came to us to celebrate their 40th anniversary, the brief wasn't to start over — it was to look closer. We dug into their original identity, found the details worth keeping, and modernized the rest. The result: a logo that honors four decades of craftsmanship while speaking to where the firm is headed next. We are honored to have been part of this evolution.
