01Vision & Foundations
Find the centre before building the edges.
Start herefrom A$5,000
Typically one to two weeks
A focused engagement to clarify the vision, map what the work requires, and set a prioritised direction before further investment.

- ✦Two facilitated clarity & strategy sessions

An early vision, a project that's become hard to explain, a founding group seeking alignment, or an initiative that needs clearer direction before it builds.
Boundaries — Not a complete visual identity, website build, legal, accounting or detailed financial model.
02Fast Start
Light brand, light web — live in ten days, built to grow.
A$5,000
Typically seven to ten business days
A light identity and a focused website, designed and built together in one sprint — the fastest honest way for a project to be public, credible and taking enquiries. Day 1 — kickoff. Day 3 — your preview link is live. Day 10 — launch.

- ✦Light identity: wordmark, colour, type and usage basics
- ✦A fast, focused website of up to five pages or sections
- ✦Enquiry or booking flow and professional email setup

- ✦A prioritised map of what to build next, when it's time
Best for
An early project, a new offer or a renamed venture that needs a credible public presence now — before the full identity and platform are due.
Boundaries — Deliberately light — not a naming process, full identity system or extended platform. Built on the same foundations as our larger work, so Living Brand and Digital Home grow from it without rework.
03Living Brand

04Digital Home
A clear, beautiful digital place built to carry the work.

07Whole-System Build
One integrated engagement for work that can't be separated.

- ✦Digital Home or custom platform
- ✦Strategic roadmap
- ✦Governance and stewardship architecture

All prices in Australian dollars, including GST. Fast Start is a fixed package; everything else is shown 'from' — complexity, research, software, content and stakeholder involvement vary, so the figure qualifies the right fit, then we provide a clear scope, boundaries, price and staged payment plan.
