( 02 ) — The studio
We believe most things are over-designed and under-considered. So we start with the argument, not the artwork — and we don’t move a pixel until we know why it’s there.
Maris & Co. is six people who’d rather do a few projects properly than many of them quickly. We work directly with founders and the people who’ll live with the work — no account layers, no hand-offs, no surprises in week six.
More about the studioHow we work

Fewer, better

Strategy before surface
The look comes last. We earn it by getting the thinking right first.

Built to last
Systems your team can run without us. We design the studio out of the picture.
