01

The name

Master Patio Builders is the full name, always, on first mention. After that, the studio or MPB. Never “Master Patio,” never “MP Builders,” never a cute shortening for social.

Master is a standard of work, not a boast. Do not decorate it. Do not put a crown on the mark. Do not write “masters of outdoor living.”

Tagline, when one is needed: The outdoor room, mastered.

02

Position

Patio companies sell covers. We specify rooms. The system is chosen last, on purpose, for the house and the light it lives in.

We are

An architectural outdoor-room studio in Los Angeles. Design, engineering, permit, and install. Louvered, insulated, lattice, timber.

We are not

A dealer catalog. A kit shop. A lead-gen landing page with a stock sunset. A first-person blog about aluminum gauges.

03

Mark

The mark is a structure: a frame, three louvers, a beam, two posts. It is drawn, not decorated. Use it in ink on limestone, cream on night, or cream on copper. Never add a drop shadow, never put it in a circle, never recolor the strokes independently.

Primary lockup

Mark left, word right. Clear space = the width of one post.

04

Color

Warm stone, not cool gray. One metal: oxidized copper. The rest is limestone, ink, and the bronze of a powder-coated post. No yellow contractor gold. No teal. No purple.

Type

Display · Fraunces

The outdoor room, mastered.

Soft serif. Optical size on. Medium weight. Tight tracking on large sizes. Never bold 700. Never all-caps for a headline.

Body · Outfit

The light in August. The rain in February. The HOA letter. The existing ledger. The span you actually need. Then we specify the system and take it through design, engineering, permit, and install.

Labels are Outfit, small, wide tracking.

Voice

Write like this

  • Short sentences. Specific materials. The house, the light, the span.
  • Speak like a builder who reads drawings — not a dealer who reads a script.
  • Name the problem: west sun, hillside wind, an HOA, a ledger that will not take the load.
  • The name is a standard. Use it that way.

Never write like this

  • Oasis. Dream backyard. Elevate. Affordable luxury. Transform your space.
  • Catalog dumps: Alumawood vs 4K vs Equinox as the homepage.
  • First-person rambling. COVID as a selling point. DIY kits.
  • Invented reviews, invented license numbers, invented project addresses.

Warm, architectural, no people as heroes. Detail the joinery. Prefer late light. Do not use fish-eye, HDR, or a drone shot of a warehouse-built kit.

Truck door

Signage, hats, and invoices follow the same lockup. Copper is an accent, never a field for long text.

Site

The public site is the brand in motion. Home is a long argument. Systems are four rooms. Work is conditions, not fake addresses. Process is five stages. Inquire is a two-step form plus the studio number, always visible.
