At the heart of every successful brand development journey lies a robust Brand Strategy. This is where we transform your vision into a concrete plan: we start by thoroughly understanding your core values, goals, and unique selling points. Using these insights, we establish a strategy that will serve as the blueprint for all future branding efforts.
This strategic planning phase facilitates the creation of a truly authentic and relatable Brand Identity aligning with your ideals and resonating with your target audience. We ensure that every aspect of your brand – from messaging and visuals to tone and mood – reflects the 'soul' of your brand. A properly and fully developed brand strategy allows us to ensure the perfect marriage of your vision and our creative expertise.
Your Brand Identity is the visual representation of your brand's essence. We craft the core visual elements of your Brand Identity with three main goals: to make your brand look good to your audience, to make it stand out from the competition, and to communicate the essence and values of your brand.
We establish a suite of fonts, colour palettes, imagery and graphic elements to create a brand-unique visual language that speaks to your target audience. Every design choice is carefully considered to evoke the desired emotions and impressions in the minds of your customers. The result is a cohesive and impactful Brand Identity that brings your brand to life and leaves a lasting impression.
Once your Brand Strategy and Identity are established, we provide you with comprehensive Brand Guidelines to ensure consistency and coherence in your brand implementation. We create reference documents for future designers and marketers, offering clear directions and explanations on how to implement and understand your Brand Strategy and Identity. They cover various elements such as values, tone of voice, logo usage, typography, color schemes, imagery, and more.
By following these guidelines, anyone working on the brand can maintain its integrity across all channels and touchpoints, and you will have a solid foundation for brand growth and expansion. We create brand guidelines that are accessible, informative, and user-friendly, empowering you to confidently manage and communicate your brand identity to your audience.

Imagine you’ve developed a new sponge. It’s very advanced, and incredibly feature-rich, and you’re ready to take it to market. The sponge itself, and all of its features, are not its brand. But, if you call the sponge the Supersponge, and you describe all of its features with a certain kind of language, and you dye the sponge neon blue to help distinguish it from other sponges - those are features of your brand.
Your brand is the translation of the essence of your product or service - the bridge between you and your audience. A good brand will be impressive, eye-catching and memorable - but most importantly, it will effectively communicate what it is about your product or service that makes it special.
Chances are, you already have one! Realistically, it's very difficult not to have a brand. If people are able to recognise your product or service in any way, you have a brand. Even if you’re the only one who knows about your product or service, there’s probably something about it that makes it special or distinct from other similar products or services to you. No one sets out to just remake something someone else has already made (uness you're making a tribute to something - in which case, that's your brand!). Whatever it is that makes your thing different: that is the heart of your brand.
Of course, if people aren’t able to recognise that difference immediately, then you probably don’t have a very strong brand. If there’s no logo, no visual identity, no slogans or taglines, nothing to quickly communicate that difference, then you’ll go on to be the only person who knows what the difference is - you may even have all of those elements of branding, but if your audience doesn’t get the message, then you may as well not have any of those elements at all.
That’s where we step in. We spend the time necessary to learn what’s special about your product or service, and we use our brand design expertise to translate that essence into an identity that your desired audience will notice and remember.ute to something - in which case, that's your brand!). Whatever it is that makes your thing different: that is the heart of your brand.
The short answer is: Yes!
The long answer is: Every brand has different needs and different budgets, and we recognise that sometimes, there aren’t enough resources to get the full kit right out the gate. While we strongly believe that a powerful and comprehensively developed brand can make all the difference for a product’s success, ‘just a logo’ is worlds better than nothing at all.
Our most streamlined Brand Development services will have you walking away with a logo and a Brand Guidelines document that details how to use your logo variations, as well as your brand’s colours and fonts - we consider these the absolute essentials, as all good logos are built on the foundation fo a well coordinated brand font hierarchy and brand colour palette. The Brand Guidelines document will be your incredibly important point of reference for all future brand work: when you're doing any kind of work with your brand, like social media marketing or email signatures, the Brand Guidelines document will provide an outline of how to use your logo, your colours, and your fonts (as well as any other brand assets we develop for you). You can learn more about our Logo Development services here.

Brands are the first and foundational step in any product or service's marketing efforts. Your logo, colours, fonts, illustrations, patterns, imagery style and so on will establish a consistency and familiarity for your product/service that will help build a relationship with your audience. So, the next step after the creation of a brand is the utilisation and implementation of that brand. We call this component of a marketing journey the Brand Implementation stage: this is where things like websites, social media pages and graphics, EDM (electronic direct mail)/email marketing templates, letterheads, business cards, capability statements and so on are created.
Once we've created a brand for you, you have all the brand resources you need to go off into the wild world of audience engaegement and create your own marketing collateral! If you'd like a professional helping hand in this department as well though, we do also offer Brand Implementation services which you can learn more about here.
