Stargazer Yacht Charters
A dignified digital presence for a memorial and heritage yacht charter on the Cape Fear River.
An independent design study. Renn Williamson Studio is not currently engaged with Stargazer Yacht Charters.
A memorial and private-charter operator on the Cape Fear River asks something different from a website than most local hospitality businesses. People come for ash-scattering ceremonies, for private celebrations, for a heritage cruise on the water — three deeply different reasons that all need to feel in keeping with each other and with the gravity of the moments they mark.
Designed, written, and coded end-to-end as an editorial study. A navy, cream, and gold palette, photography direction, and a calm typographic register let the testimonials and the vessel itself carry the page. Dignified, specific, slow.
