Style Guide.
Inspired by a childhood memory of Memphis Design and a retro Sharp Model QT V40, all squiggles, ben-day dots, and candy-bright primary colors. This page is the living reference for that visual language.

Websites that actually
rank and convert.
Statamic builds, SEO retainers, and ad campaigns for Indianapolis and Central Indiana businesses.
A block of prose with real character.
Memphis design rewards playful composition. Scatter decorative motifs at the margin of a body section, drop a chunky pull quote, and let the content breathe. The body copy stays legible, black on cream, while accent color lives in the headings, links, and framed callouts.
"If the site could realistically be static, start with Statamic."
Inline links get a thick underline in one of the accent colors, like this, so they feel like part of the design rather than an afterthought.
Built on Statamic.
Faster than WordPress.
Flat-file architecture, Laravel-powered, and Core Web Vitals in the green. No plugin sprawl, no weekly security patches, no WP-Rocket tax.
