We are an international team based in Buenos Aires with a passion for building stellar and engaging virtual spaces.
You will find us most days in our offices crafting dynamic web strategies and incredible design.
We get pretty enthusiastic about graphic interaction design. Just you wait and see...
Remember, we’re not models. We’re web nerds.
Mar Spada, information architect and design black belt, hails from the Argentine Province of Entre Rios, famous for its Carnival
-which Mar finds tasteless.
A self-confessed applied semantics nerd and power-designer, he eats, sleeps, and breathes the search to solve the
world’s problems using visual languages.
He has been designing websites for more than 8 years now for clients coming from all corners of the planet, as well as all sorts of other digital and physical graphic pieces from album covers
to packaging and visual identities.
He shares his home with two beautiful Siamese kittens.

Ned Howey, business creative and strategic ‘doer’; an American with a chronic case of wanderlust.
While his Spanish accent is terrible even after years in Argentina, he is a great translator between the sometimes difficult
world of tech dorks and the rest of us.
Before falling into the world of web building, he worked for 10 years in social services for the homeless, doing jobs ranging from overseeing health programs, to writing large grants, balancing budgets, and
breaking up the occasional knife fight.
Now that he is more relaxed he plays classical music on the bassoon, tango music on the bandoneon, and country music on the banjo.
Actually, he’s never played the banjo.

Our policy is to only bring on board experts in the field of web design. We believe this makes for the best business model. You can rest assured everyone working on your site will have years of experience in the industry, the latest knowledge about trends and technology, and a passion for digital design.
We conduct all basic web builds in-house. It’s a small group of creative, talented people sitting around a table, brainstorming, collaborating, and building your website together. Because we work as a small team, you can trust everyone on the project will have your big picture in mind, have all the information about the site, and work seamlessly to deliver a great site.
We are able to keep our prices lower than studios of equal quality in the US and Europe thanks to low local overhead costs and still be able to pay our workers a fair wage
(and a good deal of love).
We believe in it and it also helps us keep local talent who are happy and committed. We also give back to our community through
services to local non-profits.
From preliminary planning and strategy consulting to design and coding, we can take your project fluidly from the concept to completion.
