Just to name a few.

  • Branding is more than a logo. It’s the visual and emotional representation of a brand. Branding includes a number of key elements — logo, colors, typography, messaging, and graphical elements — that all work together to tell a cohesive story of who the brand is. All the elements of a well-built brand are carefully crafted to evoke specific feelings and associations in the minds of customers.

  • Believe us, you CAN make beautiful Powerpoint presentations. We’re here to help you tell (or sell) your story, one slide at a time.

Our Process

  • Discovery

    We kick every project off by asking a lot of questions. We want to understand as much as we can about the brand, your individual perspective, and all your various needs, likes, dislikes, goals, and expectations for our work together. This phase includes research, creative brief and strategy development.

  • Concepting

    Before we launch full-steam into creative work, we always do a gut check to make sure we’re on the same page visually. That’s why we put together 2-3 rough concepts or moodboards — visual inspiration that we’ll share with you. We’ll talk about what vibe feels right for your brand, and use your choices as an ongoing reference throughout our creative process.

  • Execution

    After one concept is selected, full development of the assets begins. This phase typically includes two rounds of edits and delivery of the final design assets packaged up and ready for use.

  • Guidelines & Templates

    For any assets that can be turned into guidelines or templates for further use down the road, this is the point where we create those guidelines or templates for efficiency and consistency as your brand and team grows.
