About x-brands — a branding, website and managed-marketing studio, building brands since 1999
The long build.
Building brands since 1999 — starting with our own.
x-brands is a family studio that builds brands and websites and runs the marketing for owner-led businesses. We have built businesses of our own along the way — which is why the work is scoped like an owner would scope it. 1999 is the year this generation started.
Every client answers a discovery document first.
So did we.
Identity. Websites. UI/UX. Signage. The phone number. Social. Search. Merch.
The environment. A logo is a component; a room is a decision. We build the room. Environment as product.
x is the variable. Your name goes there.
Three plates, misregistered, then pulled into alignment. The process, printed.
A family enterprise, generations deep — people who have always worked for themselves. The ventures, the merch, the paperwork — separate rooms, one house.
Twenty-seven years in, and we still picked modern.
That it’s already handled.
Who’s behind it, and what 1999 means. A family, and the year this generation started — the first brand we ever built with an x on it was our own.
The answers become the brief. The brief becomes the work.
What’s the business, and what isn’t working?
A sentence is enough — starting from scratch, or building on what you have. We come back with what we’d do, what it costs and how long. Usually within a day.
