WORKFLOW

[STEP-1]

Discovery and analysis

We start with a brand audit. We decode the business, learn the specifics of your field and define the real problems and expectations. Together we create a “single source of truth” and align our goals 100%. You know exactly what we are looking for.

[STEP-2]
Designing meaning
We bring structure to chaos. We build the brand platform: vision, positioning, naming and tone of voice. We define the ideology that sets you apart in the market and approve the verbal foundation and logic of the future brand.
Services Image
[STEP-3]
Giving meaning form
We translate the approved meaning into visual communication. We develop a coherent identity, logo, brand blocks, typography and colour palette, and design the brand touchpoints.
Services Image
[STEP-4]
Launch and support
We compile all working files into detailed brand guidelines (brandbook) and hand over everything in the formats you need. We support the launch and implementation.

FAQ

How long does it take to create or renew a brand?
Timelines depend on the scope. Focused services, such as an express audit or a strategy session, take a few weeks; a full branding or rebranding cycle takes 4 to 11 months. For example, we created the Montrer brand in 4 months, and the Kupinskiy Architects rebranding took 11. We set the exact plan at the first stage — discovery and analysis.
How involved will we be in the process?
Your participation matters most at the start: interviews, strategy sessions and goal discussions help us understand the business from the inside. After that, you join at key points — approving the brand platform and the visual concept. You stay in control of the result without spending time on operational details.
Can we order a single stage only?
Yes. Besides the full cycle, we work with individual modules: an audit, naming, a logo, a strategy session with the founder or art direction for your team. If your business already has a solid base, we step in exactly at the stage where reinforcement is needed. We always tailor the format to your request.
What will we get as a result?
You get not a set of pictures but a coherent brand system: a brand platform with positioning and tone of voice, an identity, brand touchpoints and detailed brand guidelines (brandbook). We hand over all working files in the formats you need, so your team or contractors can roll out the brand on their own — and we support the launch.
How is the project cost determined?
The cost depends on the scope of work, the number of stages and the complexity of the task. After discovery and analysis, we propose a plan with a clear list of deliverables, timelines and cost. Send us a request, and we will find the best format for your business.
