Three shapes engagements take.
sundays takes on a small number of commissions each year — founders and organizations who need outside judgment on identity, strategy, or both. Engagements take three shapes.
A read
For founders who know something is off but cannot locate it. The studio reads what you have built, what it is communicating, and where it has drifted from the original story. You leave with a clear read and a line of sight forward.
Typically a single working week. Delivered as a working note, not a deck.
A stay
For organizations at an inflection point. The studio becomes a consistent judgment layer as decisions land — useful when the work is moving faster than the occasional outside read.
Three to six months. Built around your rhythm.
A build
Identity and product work for organizations that have already decided what is true. Identity systems, visual languages, websites, sometimes software. Built from clarity, not on top of confusion.
Typically four to six months, often longer. Available as a standalone engagement or as the natural continuation of any of the above.
Inside an engagement, this is the work that happens.
