Story
Steve Bailey builds things that take their time. A boutique marketing agency, grown slowly. A sourdough starter kept alive on the counter, a fire in the pizza oven, a live mix at church on a Sunday morning. He's 65 and in no particular hurry, and the work he cares about is all the same kind — patient, hands-on, and better for not being rushed. This brand is the label for all of it.
Fire is the thread that runs through everything: the campfire at the lake, the wood-fired oven, the part of the main site called Around the Fire, and faith at the center of it — tended, not forced. So the logo is fire. The Ember is a single flame over two logs. It reduces to a silhouette that still reads at sixteen pixels and in one colour, which is the only test a logo really has to pass.
The wider look borrows from the old National Park travel posters — the WPA idiom. Flat vector shapes, confident geometry, a warm and deliberately limited palette, and a fine grain laid over the top so the whole thing reads as printed rather than rendered. It should feel made by hand, because that's the point.
The good stuff stays handmade.
