THE BRAND IDENTITY

I-AM, We-Are. The audience has spoken, and the audience is ruthless. What you do matters, but how you do it is increasingly paramount. We help you understand who you are, and reignite the why behind why you do what you do in the first place. We help company leaders grow and position themselves effectively, by reimagining their passions, fine-tuning their vision, and helping them reconnect with their teams and customers.

WORKPLACE EXPERIENCE

Optimising the design of your Space to fit your brand, ethos and culture. We’re helping companies realise & grow their corporate image within industry, their overall communications through critical touchpoint design, and by creating experiential branded spaces, that connect you to your brand heart. We achieve this through enhancing your welcome receptions, café gathering meeting spaces, boardrooms, office chill areas and better workflow, and all digital content and visual emotive storytelling.

PEOPLE MOVEMENT

Lacking influence? Not getting your message across? Feeling left behind, or heading somewhere but no one’s following? We help you better engage and understand your employees needs, and your industries climate. Which ultimately drives, motivates and builds the momentum you need to mobilise your course and create the change. Culture is the lifeblood flowing through your organisation, that connects it’s parts, stands for something greater and lives out your purpose collectively and authentically.

BRAND CENTRE STAGE

Taking you from zero to hero, from forgotten to relevant. Over multiple channels, we elevate the overall engagement with both your internal and external customers – your holistic brand. Elevating these experiences across multi-faceted touch-points. We achieve this through effective purposeful design, streamlined brand strategy, as we take you through a process and journey to better unlock the full potential of your product and service.

Who we work with

Whatever stage you are in the business building journey, we are able to work together. By assessing the businesses vital signs, what’s working and leveraging or replicating it, what’s not and fixing or shifting from it. We’ve worked closely alongside companies and business executives to pursue and facilitate the strategy side along with planning and transitioning them in achieving these goals together.

Working within multiple industries, with a diverse set of clients, and array of leadership styles over the past decade. We’ve assisted many of them to launch, expand their offering, grow their services laterally, and progress into new environments. We’ve developed sub-brands and new product categories alongside companies core offering. For others, advancing them into the retail physical space from an online digital e-commerce platform. As well as impacting on the internal processes and systems, the culture of their organisations. Developing their identity across all environments and platforms, online, publication and physical spaces.

We work as visionaries, putting a light onto an exciting path and growth journey. We take just as much ownership into what it often takes to walk out this road, the cost, the sacrifice, the effort in maintaining it. But it also has long-term reward and impact, where whole organisations benefit from the change.

So what’s the big event? On a buzzing Cape Town evening, where the Silo district just happened to be on form that night, as two creatives came together to design the ultimate Bachelor Event Experience. Grabbing the nearest napkin, bumming a pen from the waiter they began to draft (scribbling on a serviette) the 99% already completed visionary bachelors.

Hold-on, this is not a bachelors, this is a brand! – Package this thing, take it to market and roll-it-out! The heart and vision behind Brandbydesign, there are no small events, there is just small thinking… Say No to Average, No Average Ideas.

Weddings, Client Events, Launches, desiging Café Spaces and building Company Culture, through strategic event moments, we’ve co-created and conceptualised them all. Ready to talk about your next event?

Designing A Bachelors . The Brand Experience.
