Our Process

  • Through a discovery call, we talk all about your brand to find your Guiding Light: your story, your values, and your positioning.

  • Using our Guiding Light, I create the foundation of your visual identity, which includes a logo system, typography, and color palette. This is everything you need to get a brand started.

  • With the Foundation in place, I build out the system of your visual identity. This is where the brand really begins to blossom through stationery, web designs, illustration systems, or any other brand applications you’ll need. 

  • This is where the brand becomes real. I’ll hand off the brand guidelines, along with any deliverables, and you’re all set to show off your brand to the world!

With each package, we help you find your guiding light through a Brand Clarity session and we design the foundation of your visual identity—including a logo system, color palette, and typography. After that, you can upgrade your package to include as many brand applications as you need.
