About

The studio behind the work.

Alkalyne Design is a Los Angeles creative agency built for small businesses — big agency quality, boutique service, and a decade of taking ideas from first sketch to finished reality.

The Story

A decade in the making.

The first chapter

Alkalyne begins life in Humboldt County as Byte Jockeyz — a development studio landing its first client work, from a mobile nutrient calculator app to websites for local businesses.

The move to Los Angeles

The studio relocates to LA, closer to family and to the small-business community it serves today.

Becoming Alkalyne

A rebrand marks the shift from pure development shop to full creative studio — cleaner name, wider ambitions, and a growing roster spanning restaurants, nonprofits, publishers, automotive, and cannabis brands.

Design across every dimension

With FDM printers and a laser cutter running alongside the design desk, Alkalyne takes brands from pixels to plastic — web, identity, packaging, and physical fabrication under one roof.

Roots

Alkalyne was founded by Andrew Martin, who grew up watching his father turn a lifelong passion for cars into a hot rod shop where relationships lasted decades. That lesson — that craft and care build businesses — runs through everything the studio makes today. The hot rods became pixels, code, and a growing fleet of printers; the standard stayed the same.

How We Work

The way we do things.

People before projects

Before we take on any project, we make it a priority to understand the person behind it — their expectations, their goals, and their vision for the business.

Communication that never goes dark

Every client relationship is built on consistent communication and genuine investment in the outcome. You always know where your project stands.

Craft in every detail

From typography to tolerances, we sweat the small things — because the small things are what make work feel considered, premium, and built to last.
