A web design portfolio for small businesses in San Jose and the Bay Area, demo builds and a look at what we're taking on next, with clean layouts, modern design, and sites built to hit a real business goal.
A complete ecommerce demo built for a small-batch beef jerky brand.
A demo build for a small-batch jerky brand, showing how a maker taking orders through Instagram DMs could move to a real online store customers can buy from anytime.
The site includes online ordering, an AI chat assistant that answers product questions, and a mobile-first design built for customers browsing on their phones.
Good web design today isn't one look. It's a family of distinct visual registers, each matched to a different kind of business, audience, and goal. A precision product leans on restraint. An enterprise platform earns trust through structure. A neighbourhood service wins with warmth and real photography. A fashion house sells through cinematic taste. A culture-driven brand builds around one unforgettable signature. An experiential brand justifies immersive, motion-led storytelling. Each build below is a complete, original site in one of these registers, and every panel is skinned to feel like the style it describes.
A strict grid, generous whitespace, one disciplined type system, and a single accent spent sparingly, so the product, and the confidence behind it, does the talking. It reads as premium because nothing competes for attention. Best for precision products whose credibility comes from craft.
Built here as Sable: a machined-aluminium desktop hi-fi brand, with a live product configurator.
A contained, rigid grid; information-dense without the clutter; type and spacing tuned for scanning specs and signalling reliability over flourish. Nothing decorative, every element says the product is dependable. Ideal for infrastructure, B2B SaaS, and anything sold to engineers and investors.
Built here as Substrate: a fictional AI-inference company, with a live console.
Real, candid photography over stock; soft rounded forms; warm, natural colour; and a voice that speaks to a person, not a market. It lowers the barrier to reaching out. Best for local services, wellness, and hospitality, anywhere the relationship matters more than the transaction.
Built here as Marigold: a neighbourhood movement studio, with a free-week booking flow.
A dark, filmic canvas; oversized display type set against tiny, wide-tracked labels; an asymmetric editorial grid that leaves room to breathe. It sells through mood and confidence rather than explanation. Suited to fashion, design houses, and luxury brands where the look is the argument.
Built here as HALDEN: a minimalist fashion house, with a by-appointment flow.
High contrast, heavy industrial type, technical annotations, and a single loud accent. Everything built around one hero object the visitor won't forget, with the rest kept quiet. It's memorability by design. Right for studios, agencies, and brands that need to stand out in a crowded field.
Built here as TOTEM: a creative studio built around a liquid-chrome signature.
Scroll-driven motion, full-bleed imagery, and towering type turn the page into a journey, engineered to stay fast and to honour reduced-motion preferences. Motion earns its place by carrying the story, not decorating it. Made for launches and experiential brands that need to feel like an event.
Built here as APOGEE: a private-spaceflight brand, with a scroll-led parallax journey.

Stack Studios is new. That is a real thing to weigh, so here is exactly what it buys you.
You work directly with the person building your site. Not an account manager, not a queue. We take one project at a time so yours is the one being worked on.
Before we touch anything, we record what your site does today: calls, form fills, traffic. We report against that number at 30, 60, and 90 days. You will know whether it worked, because we wrote down what "worked" meant before we started.
Ask us. We probably build it. Contact us to talk about your project.
Tell us about your project and we'll design something just as clean and purposeful, built specifically for your goals.
