How to choose the right studio
Try an everyday document
Ask to see a presentation or product sheet with real text. Check whether the design stays clear when it contains a lot of information.
Define the problem
Specify whether you need a new brand, a change in how it is perceived or a visual update. The proposal should address that problem.
Prepare your team
Agree editable templates, instructions and support for the people who will use the new identity.
Common questions
How much does sector experience matter?
It can speed up understanding of constraints and audience, but it should not produce a familiar solution. Look for knowledge of the context and a new point of view.
What is the difference between a rebrand and a refresh?
A rebrand may question positioning, architecture and identity. A refresh works mainly on an existing system. Agree objectives and scope before comparing commercial proposals.
Which deliverables are needed at the end?
Agree the materials your team will use: brand files, instructions, editable templates and guidance for animation and photography. Include a demonstration.
