The Why
Brand Strategy

Brand, Design, Visual Identity

Their Brand is a Logo. Your Brand is a Pathos.

Imagine if Nike opened a hotel.

Without needing details, you can picture what it would be like—modern, sleek, energizing, and filled with spaces inspiring movement, athleticism and community. It would feel like an extension of Nike’s commitment to performance, design, and empowerment.

Now, imagine Hyatt launching a sneaker.

It’s harder to envision, isn’t it? There’s no immediate sense of what it would look like, how it would feel, or what it would represent. While a trusted name in hospitality, Hyatt hasn’t built the kind of emotional resonance or cultural identity that could carry over seamlessly into another industry.

This analogy demonstrates the power of a brand. A strong brand isn’t just a logo or a product—it’s the promise, emotion, and meaning it creates. Nike’s brand is so deeply ingrained in its values and audience that it can transcend industries. Like many companies, Hyatt has yet to cultivate that same identity.

Brand Platform

The strategic blueprint that codifies your brand’s identity and provides guidance for every interaction.

Your brand platform encapsulates your company's lifeblood. It combines your purpose and values with competitive research, customer segment profiles, readership style guides, visual identity, positioning, and promise.

With a distinct personality and consistent voice, a strong brand platform ensures your brand resonates and remains unforgettable.

Visual Identity

The face and feel of your brand—it's what people see and remember long after their first interaction. It goes beyond just a logo; the colour palette, typography, imagery, and design elements create a cohesive and recognizable look.

A strong visual identity ensures that every touchpoint, from your website to your marketing materials, consistently reflects who you are and what you stand for.

It's about creating a visual language that speaks directly to your audience, making your brand not just seen but instantly recognized and remembered.

Logo Design

More than just a symbol—it's the signature of your brand.

Your logo is the first thing people see and the last thing they remember. A well-designed logo distills everything your brand stands for into a single, powerful mark. It’s not just about looking good; it’s about making a lasting impression, creating an instant connection, and ensuring your brand is unmistakable every time it’s seen.

Your logo is the cornerstone of your visual identity, embodying your brand’s essence in one unforgettable image.

Copywriting

Words. We know where to find the good ones—and what they can do for you.

Trust me, you don't want any of those bargain-bin words. They lack patina and depth and semiotics.

In fact, we have a whole inventory of top-tier words sitting on shelves in our back office, just waiting to do their part. We've been collecting them for years, saving the most valuable ones just for you.

Storytelling

Weave together your brand’s values, mission, and personality into a narrative that resonates and inspires.

It’s the difference between simply existing and truly being remembered. Every brand has a story, and our job is to tell yours in a way that captivates, engages, and leaves a lasting impact.
