FROM IDEA TO FINISHED WORK

A place for every creative decision.

01
Define the point of view.
Bring the brand’s audience, personality and references into a brief. Establish what the identity should express before choosing its applications.
02
Make the language tangible.
Explore photography, illustrations and material treatments in Photo Studio. Carry the palette and references through the applications.
03
Give the decisions a home.
Assemble the story, visual rules and examples in a brand-guideline deck. Keep the work together in a Studio project.

Is this one tool or a connected workflow?

Brand systems combine Deck Studio, Photo Studio and campaign creative. Use the tools together to develop the visual direction, create applications and document the decisions.

Can I use an existing logo?

Yes. Bring your logo and brand references into the project to guide the visual direction. Use brand colors and typography consistently across the work.
