The Team Behind Studio C
Studio C was founded in 2024 by Caleb Holt, a Certified Framer Pro Expert and top 1% designer on Contra. Self-taught after high school, Caleb started out designing for his father’s nonprofit, which he still supports today, and spent a few years as an in-house designer before building something of his own. He sharpened his craft on freelance work and grew enough organic and repeat clients to work entirely on referrals. Along the way he discovered Framer, and founded Studio C to bring premium design, delivered with speed and simplicity, to businesses that are often told it’s out of reach.
Studio C is a founder-led studio based in Gibsonia, Pennsylvania, in the Pittsburgh metro area. It serves clients locally in Pittsburgh and remotely across the United States.
