Design studies, round 2

Three preview sites, one design direction each. Built for review, not for sending.

Every business on these pages is invented. The names, phone numbers, reviews, prices and staff do not exist and describe no real company. Phone numbers are inside the 555-01xx range reserved for fiction. The pages state that these businesses are licensed and insured but carry no licence number — a contractor licence number is a live lookup key in a state registry, and an invented one can land on a real licensee, so the claim stays and the identifier does not. Neighbourhood names are real Reno geography used as service areas; nothing else here is real. No business was contacted and no business's content appears on any of these pages.

1. A — Sagebrush & Slate Landscape Studio

   Editorial / print. Asymmetric columns, a hanging-indent catalogue, marginalia. Proof set as pull quotes rather than a rating badge.

   Fraunces + Karla · flat botanical plate · twelve-month garden calendar

2. B — Basin & Range Home Systems

   Techno-futurist bento, dark. Unequal cells sized by hierarchy rather than a row of equal cards.

   Space Grotesk + IBM Plex Sans + JetBrains Mono · isometric house cutaway · live plan builder

3. C — Bolt & Batten Repair Co.

   Swiss / poster. One strict grid, flush-left type, oversized numerals, rules instead of boxes.

   Archivo alone · flat geometric poster mark · coverage schematic
