Selected work

The work

Concept sites for a record store, two honky-tonks, a Tex-Mex institution, a donut shop, a burger joint, a hotel and a rapper. Each one is live: open it and scroll.

Case 01Reckless Records
The Reckless Records concept: a huge slanted black and orange wordmark with live store status

Reckless Records concept site

Concept · 2026RetailReckless Records

Chicago's record stores since 1989. A bold editorial site in black, bone and signal orange: dig through a crate of records and pull one out, see which of the three stores is open right now, and learn how to sell your collection.

Unsolicited concept. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Reckless Records.

Case 02Robert's Western World
The Robert's Western World concept: the neon sign with the giant red boot and the Sho-Bud guitar on Lower Broadway at night

Robert's Western World concept site

Concept · 2026Live musicRobert's Western World

Nashville's honky-tonk in the old Sho-Bud building. Broadway's boot-topped sign at dusk, a letterboard that shows who's on stage right now on Nashville time, the $6 Recession Special, and the building's Sho-Bud history, with photos from our own visit.

Unsolicited concept. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Robert's Western World.

Case 03Matt's El Rancho
The Matt's El Rancho concept: the restaurant's neon pole sign glowing at dusk

Matt's El Rancho concept site

Concept · 2026RestaurantMatt's El Rancho

Austin's Tex-Mex institution since 1952. The famous pole sign lights up at dusk, then you build the Bob Armstrong Dip in its molcajete as you scroll, make it a Spicy Bob, drag a chip through the queso, then shake a Knockout Martini at the bar.

Unsolicited concept. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Matt's El Rancho.

Case 04Round Rock Donuts
The Round Rock Donuts concept: Hot glazed since 1926, with the drive-thru lit up at night

Round Rock Donuts concept site

Concept · 2026BakeryRound Rock Donuts

A hundred years of golden donuts. The site tells you if the fryer is on right now, dips a donut in glaze as you scroll, sizes up the Texas-sized challenge, and finally puts the menu and both drive-thrus where people can find them.

Unsolicited concept. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Round Rock Donuts.

Case 05Dirty Martin's Place
The Dirty Martin's concept: 100 years on the Drag, with the restaurant's longhorn sign

Dirty Martin's Place concept site

Concept · 2026Restaurant + barDirty Martin's

Austin's century-old burger joint turns 100. The site rolls 1926 to 2026 on an odometer, stacks each burger from its real recipe, lights up today's special, and puts the whole menu in text instead of pictures.

Unsolicited concept. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Dirty Martin's Place.

Case 06Heywood Hotel
The Heywood Hotel concept: a line drawing of the hotel's bungalow at dusk, windows glowing

Heywood Hotel concept site

Concept · 2026Hotel websiteHeywood Hotel

A seven-room hotel with a MICHELIN Key and hardly a photo to its name, so the site walks you in through drawings: the street at dusk, through the front door, into the courtyard, then every room on a plan you can tap.

Unsolicited concept. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the Heywood Hotel.

Case 07Broken Spoke
The Broken Spoke concept: a neon wagon-wheel sign glowing over a night sky

Broken Spoke concept site

Concept · 2026Venue + restaurantBroken Spoke

Austin's last true Texas dance hall gets a neon sign that powers on, gig posters that update from a Google Calendar the owners already use, and a two-step lesson you scroll through.

Unsolicited concept. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the Broken Spoke.

Case 08LUCKI
The LUCKI concept site's opening screen: a giant LUCKI wordmark over a black-and-white visualizer

LUCKI concept site

Concept · 2026Artist websiteLUCKI

His album Dr*gs R Bad is named after old anti-drug TV ads, so the whole site plays like a late-night public service announcement.

Case 09 is in production.New concept builds are on the way. Want yours to be next? Let's talk.

The person behind Worthy
Who you'll work with

Worthy is a one-person studio. I design and build every site myself: no templates, no hand-offs to strangers.

You talk to the person doing the work, from the first call to launch day and after. That's why the sites feel finished, and why changes happen fast.
