(SW® — 03) Diagnosis

A brand fails when…

  1. 01

    There is a logo but no system.

    Without colours, typography and rules, every new piece looks like it came from another company.

  2. 02

    You look like everyone else in the niche.

    The same symbols and colours give the customer no reason to remember you in particular.

  3. 03

    The site and social media live separate lives.

    The customer sees different styles and is not sure it is the same company.

  4. 04

    Your look does not match the level of the business.

    You provide services worth more than you look, and the customer prices you by appearance.

A brand is not a logo. It is a system by which people recognise you without a caption.

Client reviews

What the companies we have worked with have to say.

All reviews

We sold dancewear through Instagram and were drowning in DM orders. The team built a store where the customer picks size and colour themselves, and orders finally stopped getting lost. Worth adding: we have run the catalogue ourselves ever since, without coming back for small changes.

(SW® — 10) FAQ

Questions about branding

001. How is branding different from a logo?

A logo is one element. Branding is a system: positioning, logo, colours, typography and rules that make all your materials recognisable.

002. What do I get at the end?

It depends on the scope: from a logo with basic colours and fonts to a full brand identity with a guideline and application examples.

003. Can you build the website straight away?

Yes. The brand carries into the website design in Figma and development on a platform that fits your task.

004. How much does branding cost?

Hourly work from $25/hour. We name the sum after a short brief, once the scope is clear.

005. Can the brand be refreshed while staying recognisable?

Yes. We assess the current image and update what has aged, keeping the elements by which people already recognise you.

006. Why not generate the logo with AI?

AI draws a picture quickly, but it does not guarantee uniqueness or clean rights, and it is only a mark, not a system. We use AI as a tool, but a designer who answers for the result builds the identity.
