Three service areas, one brand, and none of them wanted the same room.
Consulting deals with governance and organisations in trouble, it needed to feel authoritative. Coworking needed to feel like somewhere you'd actually want to spend the day, not a corporate space dropped into a country town. Speaking is where Sarah's personality is the product.
Make them too consistent and everything flattens out. Let them drift and the brand comes apart. And the whole thing had to sit neutral enough to work alongside government and industry partners without clashing.
Neutral on the outside, personality the closer you get.
Black and white base, deliberate, not minimal for the sake of it. That's what lets the brand sit beside anyone else's logo without a fight. Then each service area gets its own treatment: consulting stays dark and authoritative, coworking warms up, speaking goes full colour.
Same brand. Three different rooms.
Split-screen layouts throughout, generous white space, and real photography, no stock. Strong serif headings against clean sans body copy: editorial, not corporate.
Copy written in Sarah's actual voice, first person, direct, no hedging. The rule across every page: if it can be said in five words, say it in five words.
Built in Squarespace so Sarah can run it herself. Flodesk email capture, scrolling member logos and media strip for social proof, a coded membership accordion, a Google Maps embed for the Keith space, and a contact form that triages by service from the first field.
Three businesses, one brand, and you always know which room you're in.
