“We’ll sort the message once it looks good” is the sentence behind more expensive rebrands than anything else.

My advice? Say the thing first.

Tomorrow’s vlog gets into what that actually looked like in practice.

From a slightly chaotic working file on my screen… to a box full of finished postcards ready to be delivered.

And yes, opening a box of freshly printed work still gives me a ridiculous amount of satisfaction.

These were designed for .Devon to capture the character of the shop, make the location easy to find and give people a small piece of the brand they could physically pick up and take with them.

Because even in a digital world, print still has a job to do.

It puts a brand into someone’s hands. It creates another opportunity to be noticed. And, when it feels unmistakably like the business it belongs to, it helps the whole brand become more memorable.

Designing it is one thing. Seeing the finished piece is always the bit that makes it real.

Now to get them out into the wild. ✌🏼

A logo says what you are.

It was never built to say why you’re the right choice. Here’s the difference.

There’s something lovely about seeing something you created living in someone else’s home 🧡

Last year, I designed this one-off skateboard for to launch their single, U.A.P. It became the prize in a competition built around the release - and now it’s hanging proudly in the winner’s home, looking like it was always meant to be there.

This is the kind of project I love.

Not just something that looks good on a shelf. Something you’d actually enter a competition to win.

Admittedly, my answer to “How should we promote the new single?” being “Let’s make a custom skateboard” probably tells you quite a lot about me as a designer.

But ordinary ideas rarely make memorable stories. 🔥

Every “MAKE IT POP” brief is missing a second question.

Here’s the one that actually matters. 🔥

Attention’s the easy part. Direction is where it actually gets difficult - and where most briefs fall short.

Tomorrow’s vlog goes deeper on where that direction actually comes from.

Recording this one straight to camera because it needed saying, not designing.

If your logo’s great and you’re still not sure people remember you - or you don’t know what you want to be remembered for - that’s not a branding problem.

It’s worth sitting with before the next project starts. Don’t forget to comment below 👇🏼

A rare personal glimpse into my life…

Good people, good company and a pretty incredible view.

Not a bad way to spend an evening. 🖤
