Ornate Werks

Every new thing deserves an old soul.

Ornate Werks is a creative house in Hoosick Falls, New York. We make brands, websites, films and campaigns for people who still believe beautiful things are worth the trouble.

What we believe

Taste still matters. A website can have as much character as a room. An ad can be something people want to keep. And the newest tools do their best work in the hands of someone who knows what came before.

We started Ornate Werks to bring that kind of care into the world we actually live in.

What we make

Four things, made properly
The Goldsmith: after Petrus Christus, a goldsmith and his clients at work on a crest

Brand identity

Names, logos, colors and a voice, built so people remember you after one look.

The Mosaicist: a Renaissance mosaicist sets tiles while his patron shows the design on a laptop

Websites

Designed and built here, fast on a phone, easy to find, and never a template.

The Film Crew: a Renaissance court poses for a modern film crew

Films and commercials

Shot with cameras, made with AI or both, and written so people watch to the end.

The Façade: at night painters on scaffolding paint a giant portrait across a palazzo

Campaigns

The images and stories that keep you in people's minds long after the launch.

The Founder: one founder at his desk, wearing every hat at once

Who you'll work with

Ornate Werks is one founder, William Kennedy, with tools no studio had five years ago. You work with the person who makes your work, from the first idea to the day it goes live, and nothing leaves until it's something we'd hang on our own wall.

William Kennedy, Founder
