We induce various art forms and illustrations as a core branding element, which can give a fresh and unique face for a brand amongst the likes in an industry. We discreetly follow and observe various design trends in every industry, do thorough research, and study to create a design that sets a new direction. An appropriate, unique & indigenous design is our objective.
-
What files (and formats) will I receive at the end of a project?Logo files are usually delivered in various colour options and layouts (symbol only, name, and tagline). Files are typically provided in EPS (vector) and JPG formats. For all other deliverables, the final file formats will depend on where and how the designs should be used and other manufacturing requirements.
-
Do you offer unlimited revisions?No. Our time (Yours and ours) is precious and limited. Our pre-production process and workflow ensures that we will be able to narrow down the requirements in detail before we commence designing. Our approach eludes any need to re-work exhaustively. We only offer finite and relatively minor design revisions, as agreed upon in the quotation & contract.

Can you help with web development?We can assist you with UI & UX services for your website as part of the branding project. But we do not develop any websites currently.

What is branding? How is it different from Logo designing?A brand is a set of visual, structural, and functional characteristics representing the brand promise, values, and voice of the products and services offered. A logo is a symbolic identity of your company's brand identity, only a subset of your brand. A logo is like a face, while a brand represents the whole body.
