Brand Design

The decisions that make you recognizable before anyone reads a word — made once, written down, and reusable.

What this is

A brand isn't the logo; it's the set of decisions the logo belongs to. Which two colors, which type, how much space around things, what you never do. Made once and written down, those decisions let everything after — a sign, a post, an invoice — look like it came from the same place, without anyone having to redecide it each time. A logo on its own has nothing to be consistent with.

Work

Open a piece to see the samples.

Most of this brand's surface area is a cup someone carries down the street, so the mark had to survive being printed small on a curve.

Sample
Applied set — the same mark across sign, cup, card and awning.
Sample
Primary logo and the reduced version for small sizes.
Sample
Palette, with the one combination that fails on a lit sign ruled out.

Designed at 16px first and scaled up, rather than designed large and discovered to be a smudge in the browser tab.

Sample
Size ladder — 16px to full width, no separate redraw needed.
Sample
Construction and clear space.
Sample
In place — app icon, tab, letterhead.

A redesign constrained by an existing product, an existing box size, and customers who still had to recognize it.

Sample
Before and after, at shelf distance rather than close up.
Sample
Front panel — ingredient list moved off the face.
Sample
Range variants sharing one layout.

How it works

01

Idea

Who you are, who you're not, and what you're competing with visually.

02

Explore

A few genuinely different directions — not one idea in three colors.

03

Refine

One direction taken all the way down to the small sizes and edge cases.

04

Handover

Every file format, plus the rules written down so it stays consistent.
