Stirling Brandworks

In short

Stirling Brandworks works from a third-floor office on Mount Vernon Street in Winchester, a few miles north of Boston, and splits its offer into strategy, creative, marketing, UX/UI and technology. Most projects pair a brand idea with the website and the campaign that follow it, so the same team writes the line and builds the pages. It ranks #7 on our Boston list.

Hood's manufacturing division, part of a company with a nearly 200-year history, got a site organised around the line 'Better Than Good', with Stirling directing a custom photoshoot while Hood's own developers did the build. The MassArt Art Museum campaign 'World Class. Bite-Sized.' pitched a free museum as a quick visit. Bluespec, a RISC-V hardware firm, received a new identity, website and lead campaigns, and Azara Healthcare's DRVS analytics platform has had more than 40 app releases with Stirling.

Mid-sized B2B companies, regional banks, healthcare technology firms and cultural nonprofits around Boston that want positioning, a website and paid media from one team are the core fit. Reading Cooperative Bank's bilingual campaign shows it can handle audiences beyond English speakers too. Large enterprises needing a design system across many products, or consumer brands chasing national scale, will want a bigger studio.
