Fount

Fount emerged as an innovative experiment to transform the creation, development, and launch of digital experiences. Recognizing limitations within traditional organizational models that hinder innovation and client satisfaction, Fount sought to reimagine teamwork by collaborating with independent designers, developers, and strategists. Drawing insights from varied roles in startups, freelancing, agencies, and even client perspectives, the team embraced unique principles inspired by 18th-century pirate-ship economics to guide their operations. At Fount, democracy drives decisions; projects are chosen and led through team votes. Joining the team requires proven expertise and previous collaboration, ensuring high-quality work fueled by genuine passion. Transparency is paramount, with clients engaging directly with creators. The Quarterdeck ownership model fosters equitable profit sharing and ongoing participation. Though based in Charleston, Fount serves clients worldwide.
