The brief
UWR is an independent venture studio. It creates, tests, launches, and operates its own companies. The Saint Agency is one of them: UWR’s in-house creative development studio. This is work for our own parent, and we list it the same way we list everything else.
UWR needed an identity, a brand for each company it runs, and a site that holds all of it.
A portfolio site that makes every company look the same is really only showing the studio. The frame should be quiet so each brand can speak.
The constraint
The companies are at different stages. ClipHouz is testing. ShootDay is being built. A55 is internal. The Saint Agency is operating. A venture site tends to make everything look finished, and that is not true here.
The companies also serve different audiences, so each needs its own brand. The studio still needs to read as one place.
What we built
The UWR identity: the mark, the type, and the visual system. Brands for the ventures, each with its own mark and palette. The studio site at untilwererich.com, with a page for every company and a machine-readable index at /ai.
The decisions
The studio frame stays neutral. Off-white, black, and one heavy display face carry UWR. The color comes from the companies, so ClipHouz and ShootDay each arrive as themselves.
Status sits next to the name: Testing, Building, Internal, Operating. The site says where each bet actually is, which is the studio’s own rule of letting evidence lead.
Every company page uses the same template. Adding a venture means adding content, not building a new page.
Your turn.
