01 · PROMISE

I help founder-led brands look as good as they actually are.

Independent creative studio — web · film · image. Between Switzerland and Costa Rica.

02 · THE HUMAN

A real person — not a pipeline, not an agency.

You work with me directly, from the first call to the thing that ships. The tools are just weather.

03 · PROOF

Drop In Costa Rica — the whole promise, on one coast.

Brand, site, film and photo, made by one hand. The case that proves full-stack isn’t a pitch.

04 · SELECTED WORK

A short shelf that earned its place.

Drop In · Trauffer · Movieworld · Naturheilpraxis Nadja.

05 · WHAT I DO

Three honest tiers — web, film, image.

Web is the spearhead. Film and motion, proven. Image is emerging — and I’ll tell you so.

06 · HOW IT WORKS

The Brand Overhaul — immerse, audit, build, care.

Four real exit points, and single pieces are welcome. Full overhauls run five figures (CHF); smaller pieces start lower.

07 · THE STUDIO

One person, carrying the work across the flood.

Thun ⇄ Santa Teresa. Strategy to ship, the same hand throughout.

08 · WORDS

The work speaks; clients confirm it.

Drop In · Trauffer · Silberschmiede — in their words, soon.

09 · LET’S CREATE

See how the overhaul works for you.

A short call — tell me what you’re building. Five-figure overhauls; smaller pieces start lower.
