They had a website but very outdated, and there was no reservation system, no contact form, Only could leave review on Google.
So I built a complete solution for them.

- Wine catalog + guest reviews
- Smart reservation system with email alerts
- Contact form with auto-reply
- Secure admin dashboard

North Point Marina Logo Design
Project Overview
North Point Marina is a marina and hotel brand within the travel and hospitality industry. The brand needed a refined logo identity that could represent both the relaxing waterfront experience of a marina and the premium comfort of a hotel destination.
The client had recently developed a logo, but wanted to improve the identity by incorporating a North Star element into the design while keeping the overall typography direction close to the existing style they liked.
The Challenge
The main challenge was to create a logo that felt elegant, memorable, and suitable for both marina and hotel branding. The design needed to communicate a sense of direction, destination, trust, and coastal hospitality without becoming too literal or overly detailed.
Because the brand name includes “North Point,” the North Star became an important visual symbol. It needed to feel natural within the logo and not appear like an added decoration. The goal was to integrate it in a balanced way that supported the brand story and strengthened the overall identity.
Brand Direction
The visual direction focused on creating a logo that feels:
Modern
Elegant
Professional
Coastal
Welcoming
Premium
Balanced
Memorable
The design needed to work well across hospitality and marina-related applications, including signage, hotel materials, dockside branding, website use, uniforms, stationery, and guest experience touchpoints.
Concept Development
The logo concept was built around the idea of navigation, destination, and refined waterfront hospitality.
The North Star was used as a symbolic element to represent guidance, direction, and a memorable destination point. This connects naturally with both the marina environment and the name “North Point Marina.”
The design avoids unnecessary complexity and keeps the identity clean and versatile. The star element was carefully balanced with the typography so the logo feels cohesive, polished, and professional.
Typography
The typography direction was kept elegant and confident, based on the client’s preference for the existing font style. The letterforms were chosen to feel sophisticated while still remaining clear and readable.
The wordmark supports the hotel and marina personality by giving the brand a premium but approachable appearance. It feels established, trustworthy, and suitable for a destination-based business.
Color Palette
The color direction explored blues, light neutrals, and dark neutrals.
Blue was used to represent water, trust, calmness, and coastal living. Light neutrals add a clean, relaxed hospitality feel, while dark neutrals create contrast and give the identity a more premium and timeless appearance.
This palette allows the logo to feel flexible across different environments, from bright outdoor marina signage to refined hotel stationery and digital brand applications.
Visual Style
The final logo direction combines a classic hospitality feel with a modern visual approach. It balances abstract and literal elements by using the North Star in a clean, simple, and meaningful way.
The design is not overly playful or decorative. Instead, it feels mature, sophisticated, and suitable for a marina and hotel brand that wants to attract guests, travelers, boat owners, and visitors looking for a polished waterfront experience.
Logo Applications
The identity was designed to work across multiple brand touchpoints, including:
Marina signage
Hotel signage
Website header
Social media profile
Business cards
Guest cards
Reservation materials
Dockside branding
Uniform embroidery
Brochures and marketing materials
Merchandise and hospitality items
Final Outcome
The final North Point Marina logo creates a stronger and more meaningful identity by incorporating the North Star into the brand mark. The result is a clean, elegant, and memorable logo that reflects direction, destination, hospitality, and the premium coastal experience of the brand.
The logo gives North Point Marina a refined visual presence that can grow across both marina and hotel applications while remaining timeless, professional, and easy to recognize.
Got tired of dealing with clunky, rate-limited 3rd-party scrapers, so I built my own.
Just testing out my custom Google Maps lead generation scraper, built on Next.js, Playwright, and Supabase. It pulls business listings, finds public contact emails, and automatically dedupes everything before saving.
A few things that make it completely frictionless:
Search and initiate scrapes directly from the UI—no need to even open Google Maps.
Added a Queue system so you can run multiple scrapes simultaneously.
Real-time progress tracking (you can see the live log running in Screenshot 2026-07-07 173222.png).
I am thinking about open-sourcing the whole thing. Should I drop the code on my GitHub?
Also, I need a better name for it. My working title is "Glead", but I am completely open to suggestions. Let me know what you think!
Nice build. If you open-source it, I would prioritize making the architecture and queue system easy to extend, that's usually what gets developers to adopt and contribute.
