The problem.
Most small-press publisher sites feel either like a 2008 book directory or an overwhelming bookstore. The challenge was an editorial home that carries the weight of a real publisher, with a clean catalog, credible author bios, and a trustworthy submissions path.
The solution.
A blue-to-indigo palette that reads classical and literary without feeling stiff. Catalog-first browsing with generous book covers; author pages that read like proper bios; a submissions flow that's clear, gated, and respectful of writers' time.
