Brand identityUpdated

Everything your brand needs,
designed as one system.

A brand identity is the system that makes a company recognizable: strategy and positioning, a logo system, color, typography, imagery, icons and voice, written down in guidelines. I design all of it together, so your website, deck, product and sign look like the same company. It suits founders who are launching, raising or entering new markets.

Is it right for you?

Right for you if

  • You’re launching or raising and need to look established from day one.
  • Your website, product and sales deck each look like a different company.
  • You’re entering new markets and need one brand that works in all of them.

Another service fits better if

  • You only need a mark to launch quickly: Logo design
  • People know your brand and it only needs to look current: Brand refresh
  • Your company has changed and the brand no longer fits: Rebranding

Questions founders ask

How much does a brand identity cost?

It depends on the scope: what the identity needs to cover, for how many markets and languages. After a free 30-minute call you get a fixed written proposal, so the price never changes mid-project.

How long does a brand identity take?

Most projects take 4 to 10 weeks, depending on scope, with weekly check-ins and two revision rounds per phase.

What’s included in a brand identity?

Strategy and positioning, a logo system, color, typography, imagery, icons, brand voice and guidelines, delivered with a Figma library and full ownership of all assets. Naming is a separate service; website build and ad production are not included.

What’s the difference between a brand and a brand identity?

Your brand is what people think and feel about your company. Your brand identity is what you design to shape that: the logo, color, type, imagery and voice people see and hear every time they meet you.

Should I get a new identity or a refresh?

If people already know your brand and it still fits your company, a refresh keeps what they recognize and updates the rest. If you’re launching, or the company has changed, a new identity is the better start.

Do you design bilingual Arabic and English brands?

Yes. For the UAE and Saudi Arabia I design Arabic and English versions of the name, logo and type so they work as one brand, including right-to-left layouts.
