About

Agency-level storytelling, applied to multifamily.

Studio + Commerce is an LA-based content production studio for multifamily owners, student housing developers, and lifestyle brands. We bring the craft that's standard in fashion, hospitality, and consumer brands to the properties renters actually choose between.

24+ yrs

Of consumer and agency creative

Founder Ross Laurence brings two decades-plus across consumer brands and creative agencies to multifamily — a category that rarely gets that bar.

Why work with us

Agency-level strategy, applied to multifamily.

Most multifamily marketing is competent vendor work. Almost none of it is strategic. The craft that's standard in fashion, hospitality, and consumer brands is almost entirely absent in housing. Multifamily deserves the same bar. Ross Laurence brings 24+ years across consumer brands and creative agencies to the properties prospects actually choose between.

Clear on the work that's ours. Honest about the work that isn't.

What we don't

Architectural renderings

3D visuals for properties not yet built. We know the teams who do this well. Ask for the intro.

Paid media buying

Meta, Google, programmatic. It's a full-time discipline. We work alongside the specialists who live in it.

Logo design and brand identity

We tell the brand story in content. We partner with identity studios when the mark itself needs work.

Property management software

We're not a tech vendor. We make the content the tech distributes.

The operators we work with

Asset managers, owners, equity partners, and marketing directors running multifamily, BTR, student, and senior housing portfolios.
