inspired solutions for web, print and corporate identity.
What We Do
Logo Design
A logo is the first of many elements combined to create a successful identity system for your company. Being the stepping stone in building your brand, we can help you establish a unique image to set the foundation.
A successful logo attracts new customers while making existing customers more comfortable. Its purpose is to create a culture that is both inward and outward-facing.
Corporate Identity
A brand is more than just a logo it is a collection of imagery, colors, typography, and voice.
After the logo development, we can help further your brand by establishing a visual symphony for your company. Whether in print or digital form, we can help you create an identity system that would complement and reinforce the reputation of your brand.
Web Design
We design and develop websites from the ground up using eye-catching graphics and meaningful imagery. We can also help you develop a website from a template you have chosen.
Either way, we can help develop a new modern, user-friendly website for your company or modernize your current website.
The Process
Discover and Define
Working closely with our clients, we analyze their goals and focus on the product and business objectives.
We identify and learn about the target audience and research the competitors collecting as much information as possible. We share the findings and our recommendations and possible routes to the client.
Lastly, before initiating the project, the summary of the work, project timeline, payment terms, and a contract are provided for client approval.
Ideate and Prototype
Using the knowledge gained in the discovery stage, we review and refine possibilities and create the first round of designs to be presented for the client’s approval.
The project is then taken through a few rounds of iterations, making sure the client’s input and needs are being implemented.
Once we have the client’s total satisfaction with the creative, we move the project to the production stage.
Test and Deliver
Translating the ideas into reality, we deliver the final solution ensuring usability and support.
After the final parts of the creative stage, any polishing or small changes needed are implemented to the final product.
We make sure we are as proud of the final product as the client is before delivering the files.
We have creative strength and a commitment to be accessible and flexible for our clients. We can make the communication of your business strategy effective.
