Utopia started in 2017 with three high-school friends building websites together.

Altar, Vigan, and Ermal started the agency while they were still in high school. The work began with websites and expanded as the businesses they supported needed clearer, more connected digital systems.

Three friends. One beginning.

Utopia did not begin in a corporate office. It began with three friends learning by building—experimenting with digital work, creating websites, solving problems, and gradually taking on real client projects together.

As those projects grew, so did what Utopia could do. Websites opened into design, search, content, marketing, applications, and technology. Each new discipline came from following the work and understanding more of the business behind it.

2017 → today.
