The pre-launch consumer brand

Founder-led, before the first sale

Needs an identity that looks established from day one, bought once, on a budget that says otherwise.

An early-stage, founder-led consumer brand in fashion, beauty, food or media, buying one-time identity work as a foundation before retail or scale. The logo often exists as a rough concept and needs to become a system. Budgets are capped, the purchase is a one-off, and the bar is set by retail buyers and premium pricing rather than by the founder's taste.

In their own words

  • We are launching a consumer brand and need an identity that looks established from day one, on a budget that says otherwise.
  • The logo exists as a rough concept. It needs to become a system: vector files, lockups, colours, something that works on a label and a storefront.
  • We are moving from direct-to-consumer into wholesale. The packaging now has to satisfy retail buyers and still speak to the parents who buy it.
