Hancock County School District leadership approached us about helping them tell the vision of an upcoming bond issue, one that kept the focus where it belongs, on students and the environments that shape their learning.

From the beginning, there was a shared understanding that this brand needed to feel trustworthy wherever it showed up. Whether someone encountered it in a classroom, on a website, or passing a sign in their neighborhood, the tone needed to remain clear and consistent.

Out of that posture, “Hancock Forward” began to take shape. A student-centered story built with intention. Every element, from brand and illustrations to the website and videography, was designed to support community understanding and trust.

Projects like these are why we care so deeply about the work that we do. When design is rooted in people, places, and long-term responsibility, it becomes a way of helping communities see themselves and the future they are shaping together.

We were honored to be a part of this project. Here’s to the Pioneers!

Yesterday, we had the privilege of being in the room for Jackson County’s “State of the County,” and for the second year in a row, capturing the story behind it.

Jackson County is seeing great momentum as a result of leaders having long-term vision and a real passion for stewarding what’s been entrusted to them. Much is happening here, and even more is ahead.

Our role in this project was simple: listen to the story being told by the leaders of Jackson County and capture it in a way that reflects both progress and possibility.

Our team was honored to help bring that story to life.

“Our general managers are getting too many private event requests that never go anywhere. Can you help us fix that?”

That vision was posed by the leadership of Patio 44.

As their restaurants continued to grow in the public eye, private event inquiries began piling up across locations. Some were serious, sure, but most were just exploratory, requiring significant time and attention from the general managers before it was ever clear whether an event would actually happen.

So we built “Maggie,” an AI-powered reservation concierge that serves as the first stop for every private event inquiry. Maggie guides each guest through the request, evaluates intent, and then scores each submission from A+ to F.

Only the most serious, well-defined requests make it to a general manager. The rest are filtered out before they ever become a distraction. Behind the scenes, GMs now manage those requests inside a clean, custom workflow system designed around how they actually operate.

We were honored to work with this great restaurant to produce an application that helps them (and the public) make private dining a breeze.

Give it a try at www.patiofortyfour.com/private-events (and be sure to get the barbecue glazed salmon!).

When a pioneer builds something from the ground up, their digital presence has to carry the same care as the work itself.

Marisa Stringer started Nü Visage Aesthetics and Dermatology on the Mississippi Gulf Coast to create a high-touch, boutique practice shaped by relationship and presence. From the beginning, Nü Visage was built around care that extends well beyond a single appointment.

We were honored to partner with Marisa and the Nü Visage team to translate that vision into a custom digital home designed around clarity, and intention. A site that reflects the confidence of a practice grounded personal attention.

The result is a digital space that feels as considered as the experience itself, and one that supports where Nü Visage is headed next.
