HAUS XXIV is a where defiant thinking meets disciplined execution.
We were built for brands that are tired of being safe. For founders who know what they want to build and need a creative partner who can actually build it. For organizations that understand that design is a business decision, not a decorative one.
We focus on what matters: cutting through complexity to make smart decisions when tradeoffs appear, alignment breaks down, and ambiguity starts slowing things down instead of serving them. Our role is to ask better questions, challenge what’s expected, and translate vision into systems that perform in the real world.
Design, at its best, is not decoration. It’s direction.
We design with intent, not noise. We’re comfortable making the hard calls that protect long-term outcomes over short-term approval, and we’re honest when the easy path isn’t the right one.
David Keyes founded HAUS XXIV with one conviction: that the creative industry deserves an agency willing to do the hard work the right way, every time.
With over 15 years leading complex brand, product, and digital initiatives for some of the world’s most recognized organizations, David brings a rare combination of strategic clarity, creative conviction, and operational precision to every engagement. He doesn’t just direct work, he owns outcomes.
His leadership philosophy is simple: show up with honesty, build with intention, and never ship anything you wouldn’t stand behind in a room full of executives.
And he takes all the dogs on their regular walks. A walked mind is good for business, and the carpets.
We’ve partnered with startups, global enterprises, nonprofits, and organizations across
The work spans platforms used by millions, complex system redesigns, and brand transformations where failure simply wasn’t an option. The common thread across all of it is trust — in judgment, in execution, and in the ability to lead creative work forward with clarity and conviction.
We have a powerhouse of professionals who have worked in every industry known, the largest brands with top dawgs in the game from entertainment (hollywood) to starbucks
No disappearing acts. No buzzword buffets. No work we wouldn’t stand behind in any room.
We collaborate closely, communicate clearly, and move fast when it matters — without ever sacrificing the rigor that makes the work hold up. Our clients trust us because we’re honest about what will work, what won’t, and why. And because we genuinely care about doing it right.
Sometimes that means hands-on creative execution. Sometimes it means leadership, alignment, and strategic decision-making. Either way, we take responsibility for the outcome, not just the output.
From global brands to emerging platforms, my work crosses industries with one consistent aim, turning complexity into confident, scalable experiences.
