Maglio Architecture + Interiors engaged us to build a brand and digital presence that accurately reflected their practice, not just visually but strategically. From the beginning, our focus extended beyond design. We worked closely with them to develop a full suite of foundational documents, including brand messaging, strategic positioning, and SEO frameworks, to ensure every element of their communication was aligned, consistent, and purposeful. Through the messaging work, we distilled what makes MAI different in a crowded market. Their deep, hands-on background in carpentry informs a practical understanding of construction that most studios cannot offer. This, combined with a genuine commitment to integrity, honesty, transparency, quality, and collaboration, shaped the language and tone of voice we built for the brand. It allowed us to define not only who they are and what they offer, but also how and why they engage with their audience. The strategy documentation focused on how those qualities translate into real-world positioning by identifying their ideal clients, clarifying their point of difference, and mapping out how they interact with potential clients across every stage of a project. This work also guided the structure and content of the website, helping it act as more than a portfolio. It became a tool to educate, build trust, and generate new business. Finally, we developed a detailed SEO framework to ensure the new site was discoverable and competitive. From keyword strategy and page titles to meta descriptions and on-page content recommendations, we built the technical foundation to support long-term growth and visibility. The result is a brand system that is considered from every angle, including strategy, language, design, and digital performance, and a website that feels true to MAI’s character: clear, approachable, and deeply grounded in the craft of architecture and building.
