A brand unifies products and services, employees and customers. It keeps everyone clear on who you are, what you do, and how you do it. It has to work hard, and it has to be right.
We build brands in the specific ways that are right for each client. We create the story of the brand, enrich it with sense, depth and meaning, bring it to life with considered design, and deploy it across channels that reach the intended audience.
Through brand workshops we work with each client to define the essence of the brand. We ask hard questions about products, target customers and goals. With these insights we refine the brand until we identify the unique value proposition that can claim white space in its sector. This snapshot of the brand, its features, benefits and personality, is what we call the Brand Portrait.
A brand identity isn’t a logo or a business card. It’s a coordinated set of visual assets designed to engage with a defined audience to make a lasting positive impression. It’s the visual representation of the brand and a vital tool for communicating consistently with impact.
To make sure each brand remains consistent over time, we produce clear, succinct Brand Guidelines. These show how the brand identity is deployed in any situation. They are the touchstone for future design work, making it smarter, faster and better.
website design
We design and develop websites to suit all sizes of business in all sectors. We start with the end user and work back, ensuring every website is designed and built with a clear purpose and audience in mind
Our in-house development capability allows us to deliver beyond the limitations of pre-built software. Custom front-end and database-driven functionalities and multi-platform web applications give brands a clear edge over competitors.
content is king
Content includes photography, illustration, graphics and video as well as copy. We define the right content strategy across all your media, making sure it’s right for the customers you target. We create content too, with in-house copywriters and trusted partners for photography, video, animation and illustration.
We can finalise the content you create for production by copywashing, editing, proofreading, retouching and reworking. This provides the final touch that makes the difference. Alternatively we take the information you have and the messages you want to get across and create the content, validating it with you as we go.
