Brand

A look and a voice people recognise even without the logo.

What we do

We build an identity people recognise even without the logo: colours, typefaces, image style and the voice your company speaks in. We start from what your customers already think of you, not from what you would like them to think.

A finished identity does not stay in a guidebook. We use it for the first real pieces, such as the website, a poster and social templates, so you can see straight away whether it holds up day to day.

An identity that works on the side of a cargo box

On Koppa’s cargo bikes the logo is seen moving and from far away. We made an identity that stands out in the bike lane and works just as well as an app icon.

How the work goes

  1. Step 01

    Interviews

    We talk to your customers, your sales team and your management, and write down what people already think of you.

  2. Step 02

    Direction

    We show two or three directions in real use, not as logos on a blank page.

  3. Step 03

    Look and voice

    We finish the chosen direction: colours, typefaces, image style and the way you write.

  4. Step 04

    Rollout

    We make the first materials and a guide your team can use without us.

Client says

The identity worked on the very first bike. People recognise us in the bike lane before they can read the name.

Common questions

01How long does brand work take?

Usually eight to twelve weeks from interviews to rollout. An urgent launch can be split into parts.

02Do you design just a logo?

Rarely. A logo alone does not tell you how the company looks on a poster or on social, so we always build at least colours and type around it.

03Do we get the source files?

Yes. Every file, the fonts with their licences and the guide are yours when the work is done.
