Prescribe a Strategy
Prescribe a Strategy
At this stage, our goal is to provide a roadmap for the project, built around the key objectives we’ve agreed upon.
We do this using various research tools, insights, and testing some initial concepts; building a strategy and supporting visual design direction of the project.
Apply the Solution

Once we have a design strategy, we create a vision for the project through in sketches, brand development, 3D visuals and walkthroughs. Once a solution is agreed, we detail the design, communicate it with suppliers, and support them to ensure that the design adheres to the vision we have created.
Re-apply the Solution

Many of our clients have big visions for their brand, and we specialise in designing solutions that can be applied to multiple sites and platforms. We work with suppliers to ensure that the design is efficient and can be understood by third-party suppliers in the case of a franchise model. We do this by providing brand guidelines, specification drawings, and supporting suppliers to allow projects to grow into the future.
