Foldout is a one-person design studio. Brand identity, editorial systems, and website work for small companies, publishers, and people building something they actually care about.
Marks, palettes, typography, and the guardrails to keep them consistent. Best paired with a real business decision — a launch, a rename, or an inflection point.
Grids, typefaces, and layout systems for print and web publications. Magazines, catalogs, quarterly reports. Slower work; longer-lived output.
One-page and multi-page sites for small organizations. Design and build together. Static HTML, or a lightweight CMS if the team will actually update it.

Work happens in Providence. Meetings are usually a walk. Files ship on time.

The best intros are a paragraph — what you're making, when you'd like to launch, and one thing you're stuck on. First call is 30 minutes and there's no fee.
