The work

Built here. Live now.

Real websites for real local businesses, designed and hand-built in Gilroy. Launches first, then the studio's design range, so you can see both what we ship and how wide the style can go.

Launched

Every launch, start to finish.

What each business had before, what we built, and the site itself in motion. All seven are live. Hover over a site, or tap it on a phone, to watch it, or open it yourself.

San Jose, CA · Portuguese restaurant · Launched 2026

Petiscos by Adega

Before: A Squarespace site with the menu in pictures that fell out of date, no street address written on any page, and reservation buttons that opened a locations page instead of the booking system.
We built: The whole menu written out as text, booking on Tock one tap away, private events, the family’s story, and a page for the Gilroy location on the way, all on the restaurant’s own web address with its email untouched.
Signature: The house-by-house timeline of the family’s restaurants.

San Jose, CA · Certified public accountants · Launched 2026

Faria Accountancy Corporation

Before: The web address was claimed, with nothing behind it but a placeholder page.

Our own site

loomwest.com, held to the same five checks.

The site you are on went live before we had a client site to show. The case study shows the launch page, what we changed as the work came in, and how it scores today on the Report Card we use for every business.

On the bench right now

In build

A community-based day program in the East Bay

A one-page site for a day program in Concord since 2009, vendored through the Regional Center of the East Bay: the two paths participants choose between, paid work or community activities, and how to schedule a tour.

In build

A landscaping and piecework company in Concord

A one-page site for a company established in 2012 to employ adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities: yard maintenance and piecework for businesses, schools, churches and residences, with free estimates by phone or email.

The design range

One studio, many voices.

Every build is designed around the business, not dropped into a template. These working demos, each a different voice, show how far the same craft can travel. Open any of them.
