Brands

I just like building brands.

Man, I love making brands come alive.

One maker · two houses · many brands

My own side projects first, then Skybase for software and Baizani for lifestyle. Under each sits a family of brands with their own names, voices and people who love them. Giving something a name and watching it come alive is my favourite part of the work.

Side quests that shipped.

Before the companies, and alongside them, there are the things I build for myself. Small tools, quick ideas and apps I simply wanted to exist. Some grow up and move into a house. Some stay mine.

Skybase

Studios first. Innovations later.

It began as a name for music demos with friends. Engineering pulled harder, and side projects turned into products worth keeping. Today Skybase builds apps, websites and platforms for 50+ clients, and raises its own family of products.

Baizani

Baizani means purple. A lifestyle house.

Baizani is a lifestyle brand house: jewellery, apparel and the labels that live under it. Same obsession as the software. Every detail considered, every detail doing a job, until it makes someone smile.

Look
up.

Where the road ends and the signal fades.

Most of my best ideas arrive on a trail, and the best nights end under the Milky Way. Scroll to climb from 2,546 m to 4,500 m.

Music

Where Skybase began.

Skybase Studios · demos

Before the code, there were songs.

Skybase started as Skybase Studios, a name for demos recorded with friends. It took its cue from Sky Harbor, the label and studio Adam Young built for Owl City, a world I've loved for a long time.

The songs still come, usually after a long day on the trail.
