Brand Design
A visual identity people can recognize anywhere
Logo, typography, colour, imagery and layout designed to work together wherever the brand appears.
What is included in a visual identity?
A visual identity is the core design language used to make a brand recognizable. It includes the logo system, typography, colour palette, imagery, graphic elements and layout principles that give the brand a consistent visual character. The system should adapt to different applications while keeping every asset unmistakably connected to the same business.
The situation we usually walk into
The company may have a logo, but the rest of the identity has been assembled over time. Colours shift between files, presentations follow different templates and each new application requires someone to decide what the brand should look like again.
What it costs the business
When the visual language changes from one touchpoint to the next, recognition cannot build. Teams spend more time recreating basic decisions, partners are left to interpret the brand and the quality of the work depends on who happened to make the asset.
- The logo works in some applications and fails in others
- Colour, typography and imagery vary across channels
- Sales and marketing materials look like they belong to different companies
- No visual rules exist for partners, printers or internal teams
Signs the visual identity needs work
- Every new asset begins with a new design direction
- The logo has to be modified to work in common applications
- Teams use several unofficial colours, fonts or templates
- The website, presentations and physical materials feel disconnected
- The visual style no longer reflects the position or quality of the business
