Work

We build with
clients who care.

A small selection of recent partnerships. Each one started with the same question: what is this organization trying to do in the world, and how can the web help it do that better?

Platform migration

Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard University

WordPress multisite rebuild for one of the most respected journalism institutions.

UX/UI WordPress Data migration Content architecture

We've been stewards of the Nieman Foundation site for a decade; many of those years were spent managing a brittle, complex WordPress multisite. The conversation about a redesign started long before any code was written. Because of the depth and duration of our relationship, we were able to dive into a UX/UI reboot with a head start. The result of our collaboration was a streamlined publishing platform for one of the most respected journalism institutions. Code is shared across multiple WordPress installs, with each built on a foundation that allows for efficient maintenance, clean governance and stable evolution as the institution's needs grow and change.

Agent Ready Redesign

Phillips Exeter Academy

Drupal-to-WordPress migration with an agent-ready foundation.

Drupal → WordPress Design CMS training Agent-ready

Phillips Exeter Academy's new web platform is engineered for the agentic web. We migrated the school off an aging Drupal install onto a fresh WordPress build — with a more vibrant visual identity and an information architecture that reads as clearly to AI agents as it does to prospective families. Scope ran end-to-end: design consultation, implementation, and onboarding for the school's editorial team — the kind of engagement that's only possible after a decade as their digital partner.

Transhealth

Five years of stewardship for a trailblazing organization serving the trans and queer community.

Content strategy Feature development Brand and Identity Design Accessibility

Our work with this trailblazing organization hasn't been a single project — it's been an ongoing conversation: content strategy, feature development, accessibility guidance, brand and identity design. Our relationship is built on mutual respect and a shared commitment to the trans and queer community. As this organization has grown and evolved, we've extended and cared for their digital ecosystem with a right-sized and thoughtful approach.

Research Database UX

Stolen Relations at Brown University

A community-centered database of Indigenous slavery history, made public.

UX discovery WordPress Accessibility Data visualization

Stolen Relations is a community-centered research database with more than 3,700 entries illuminating the complex histories of Indigenous slavery in the Americas. We led the work of turning a closed research tool into a public-facing platform — inviting, accessible, mobile-friendly, and intuitive for tribal members, researchers, and educators alike. After a thorough UX discovery and wireframing phase, we built a new WordPress frontend that integrates cleanly with Brown's existing backend, with hooks for interactive maps and timelines that will deepen the data's visual story over time.

Who we work with

Mission-driven, mostly. Patient, ideally.

Three kinds of organizations make up most of our work. If you don't fit neatly into any of them, that's fine — tell us anyway.

Higher education

Universities & institutes

Research centers, schools, libraries, and the publications they run. Long-tenure relationships, complex governance, durable platforms.

Foundations

Foundations & funders

Private foundations, public-interest funders, and the grantee communications that depend on them. Strategy and craft, in equal measure.

Public interest

Nonprofits & publishers

Cultural institutions, advocacy organizations, and independent newsrooms. Sustainable platforms for organizations whose budgets aren't.
