How we think

Each engagement starts with a two-week audit: interviews with customers, sales and the people who build the product. The brief writes itself after that.

We hand over everything — source files, a living brand system and a website your team can edit without calling us.

Our team is eleven people: strategists, writers, designers and two engineers who ship what the others draw.

Slopless Design · reference render

Everything above this panel is the design

Design code sd1.dZTLDYRADEN74bxaLQwXritRBv23gR07kOFzQxOIJ455fPEBJwPKw9qmefzHYx-v28ouORu_rTW0_6B5yFde2BqJJo4DFgyKrq9i_tV1kEunsPFAT5Ao9iyXrZHsYaZsuCrGEPcXluvUUMJp3YpqHaiohNVYpUCLbmP0_hoBvnPSN0VsVocH4nIqLd_WnCyk2CIxpsEdk5r0FMmpbqvfhs9qHqbfvDgTOwcEld (Swiss International), drawn by the Slopless preview renderer with sample copy. Use it as a visual guide while building: design/DESIGN.md and design/tokens.json are the source of truth. Every section root carries data-pattern with its pattern id.

Viewport

Without ?viewport= the render follows the window width once scripts run. Screenshot at 1440 px with ?viewport=desktop and at 375 px with ?viewport=phone.
