It’s Not You, It’s Us. We Changed!

Did you notice we changed our name? Welcome to STUDIO: ARC. Every brand has its own story arc – and ours has just reached a new chapter. We’ve changed our name.

JLS DIGITAL has evolved into STUDIO: ARC – and this isn’t just a new name. It’s the next chapter of our story.

Why the Change?
Like many of the brands we work with, we’ve grown, refined our vision, and become crystal clear on where we’re headed. The rebrand is about:

  • Clarity & Strength – STUDIO: ARC carries weight. It’s bold, purposeful, and rooted in the idea of transformation. The name reflects the resilience and courage we bring to every project – and it’s also a nod to my [Jessica] favourite saint, St Joan of Arc, whose determination and vision continue to inspire the way I approach business and creativity.

  • Focus – Our offerings have been refined to deliver high-impact, results-driven projects – from one-off transformations to ongoing retainers – giving you the flexibility to work with us in the way that best supports your business goals.

  • Expansion – We’ve moved into a beautiful new office in Bishop Auckland, giving us more space to meet with clients, collaborate, and bring big ideas to life. This is also allowing up to expand the team - welcome Olivia, our brilliant Executive Assistant who is making sure all the cogs are turning and keeping up with customer relations!

What’s Changed?
Here’s the short version:

  • Our Name – JLS DIGITAL → STUDIO: ARC

  • Our Space – Now based in a central Bishop Auckland office

  • Our Services – More focus on impactful website design & development, brand strategy, presence audits, logo and visual identity design, and social media strategy & optimisation – plus other creative solutions to help your business grow.

  • Our Process – Streamlined, strategic, and results-driven – we guide your brand arc from concept to completion with a clear, collaborative process that allows for creativity, refinement, and the level of detail your business deserves.

  • Continual Growth – Behind the scenes, we’ve invested heavily in ongoing training and development. From advanced website design and brand identity work, to digital marketing strategies and business growth principles, we’ve expanded our expertise to give you not just beautiful design, but the strategic know-how to promote and grow your business effectively.

What’s Staying the Same?
All the good stuff.

  • Our commitment to excellence, creativity, and strategy

  • Our friendly, straight-talking approach

  • The premium standard our clients know and love

What This Means for You:
If you’ve worked with us before, nothing changes for you except the email address and name on your invoices. You’ll still get the same creative energy, attention to detail, and strategic thinking – just under a new banner that better reflects who we are today.

If you’re new here – welcome! STUDIO: ARC exists to help ambitious businesses like yours make bold, lasting impressions online and in person.

📍 Visit us – Our office is now at: 3 Cockton Hill Road, Bishop Auckland, DL14 6EN
