It’s not me, it’s you

Doers, creators, designers, tutors, advisers, listeners, punch bags, strategists, writers, method makers, processors, illustrators, researchers, source of inspirations, energy creators and more.

We design for the brief, not for our portfolio. This may sound like an obvious thing to say, but experience has taught us here that it can be easy to fall into the trap of ‘blueprint’ processes where design becomes predictable. 

We are conceptually driven where the idea leads and the styling follows. As in life, experience tells us that a good foundation and education determines the outcome for all that follows.

Naming

Brand strategy sounds so ‘large’ and ‘expensive’. However it’s just a term given to the base level (foundation sounds so heavy) of your brand. 

Through our extensive experience in this field we have developed processes that can be applied to both small and large brands. So no matter how small you are you can still feel that you are all getting everything the big players pay for.  It’s purely a personal question of how deep you want to go. 

Branding

Involves —

Brand development 
Visual identity
Tone of voice
Guidelines
Concept design

 

The term branding comes from an old Nors word ‘brandr’ (to burn), generally referring to the branding of livestock. 

This stage involves just that, developing and designing your visual and tonal identity (red hot poker) in order to burn it into every piece of communicative material that you produce. 

Touchpoints

Involves —

Web design
Social media
Packaging
Film
Animation
Spatial design
Print
Illustration
Motion
Art direction
and of course… tote bags

 

Now that we have all the hard work done, and we have your brand all packaged up, it’s time to release it into the world. 

Through the years we have built up a trusted and talented network of like minded creatives that we work with to deliver bespoke solutions to all touchpoints possible.
