Ape Studios logo

Ape Studios is a small, veteran-owned studio. That's on purpose. We take on a handful of projects at a time so we can give each one real attention — not a template, not an assembly line.

We work mostly with people doing meaningful things: foundations, professional firms, schools, and founders building something they care about. The common thread isn't the industry — it's that the people behind it are serious about the craft.

Most engagements are a mix of brand and web. Sometimes it's just a logo. Sometimes it's a full identity, website, and the print pieces around it. We scope each one to the work that's actually needed.

how we work.

01

Slow is fast.

We'd rather do fewer projects well than many in a hurry. Good design takes thinking time.

02

Simple beats clever.

The best logo is the one your audience reads in two seconds. The best site is the one that loads fast and says what it needs to.

03

You're a collaborator.

You know your work better than we ever will. We bring the design lens; you bring the substance. The good stuff happens at the overlap.

what we do.

01 Brand identity Logo systems, type and color, voice, and the assets you need to roll it out. Project
02 Website design Custom design and build — usually on a CMS your team can run themselves. Project
03 Logos & marks Standalone logo work for founders and small teams who don't need the full identity. Fixed
04 Print & collateral Annual reports, decks, signage, packaging, swag — anything offline. Project
05 Art direction Ongoing creative direction for teams that have an in-house designer but want a second pair of eyes. Retainer
