01 — What We Build

Four disciplines.
One build team.

01

Website Design
& Development

Brand-aligned, performance-built websites designed for creative agencies and studios. Built on Webflow for client maintainability, or custom stack when the project demands it.

Webflow Custom Dev Responsive CMS
02

Custom
Applications

Internal tools, operational dashboards, and client-facing applications — purpose-built for how your team actually works, not adapted from generic software.

Internal Tools Dashboards APIs Automation
03

CRM Implementation
& Build

Platform selection, configuration, pipeline architecture, and custom builds — wired directly into your operational stack and mapped to how you actually run engagements.

Brand &
Digital Design

UI/UX design, scalable design systems, and visual frameworks — led by Lauren Holmes of Corl West. Human-centered design thinking applied to creative industry environments.

02 — Who We Build For

Creative organizations
that need things built right.

01

Hive Forma clients needing build work

When a Hive Forma engagement reaches the build phase — website, application, or CRM — Hive29 steps in as the natural extension. Same ecosystem, same standards.

02

Agencies with a design or build gap

Creative teams that know what they need built but lack the internal capacity or technical depth to execute it without compromise.

03

Studios launching a digital presence

Post-production houses, VFX studios, and content companies building their first serious web presence or client-facing digital infrastructure.

03 — How a Project Runs

Scoped before
anything starts.

01

Brief & Discovery

We start with a creative brief conversation — goals, audience, references, constraints. No assumptions.

02

Scope & Proposal

A clear scope document with deliverables, timeline, and fixed price. You know exactly what you're getting before a pixel is touched.

03

Design & Build

Iterative delivery with regular check-ins. No big reveals. No surprises. Work you can see and respond to throughout.

04

Handoff & Support

Everything documented and transferred. Ongoing support available. You own what we build — completely.

The Ecosystem

Hive Forma owns
the strategy.
Hive29 owns
the build.

Two disciplines operating in the same ecosystem — so strategy and implementation are never disconnected. When Hive Forma architects a solution, Hive29 can build it. When Hive29 builds a site, Hive Forma can run the infrastructure behind it.
