The Turtle Story

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the founder director of Inscape Design, a design team that specialises in commercial and residential interiors & retail experience.We work with home, work, shopping, or leisure environments, and use a methodical approach to interior design, to bring our clients’ core vision to life.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire The Turtle Story?

As a new interior design boutique competing in the highly overcrowded interior design supply industry, Inscape’s unique proposition of end-to-end design is a big differentiator. We needed help in designing our branding and client facing interface in a manner that would bring this differentiator to life.

For this task, I needed an agency that would partner with us, to make this vision of ourselves a reality. That is why I decided to go with turtle story. Turtle story took charge of the entire project, from designing our logo to all stationery including business cards, website design and marketing collaterals.

What were your goals for this project?

As a specialist in interior design, we know that first image is everything. We especially needed a logo that would impress upon the onlooker the end-to-end nature of Inscape, while reflecting the versatility and innovativeness of our work.

I think turtle story has done an excellent job in logo design. It truly depicts our presence across environments, while subtly revealing our initials, which was a superb trick by turtle story.

Once logo design was set, we needed our stationery to reflect this uniqueness too. Once again, turtle story delivered. It designed our business cards with a twist, such that every client, partner, and competitor who receives our business card, finds it hard to forget us.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I had given my interior designers a task of shortlisting 3-4 good branding firms in mumbai..they had shortlisted turtle story along with few others Having been on the lookout for the right agency, I had already discussed this with a few potentials and invited proposals. But by the second session with turtle story, I knew I had found the right agency.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

We met twice with the team, and we took this opportunity to introduce turtle story to Inscape, and to explain in detail, our vision of Inscape and its future path. Turtle story came back to us with 3 logo designs and branding plans to go with each option.

After discussing what each option would entail in terms of market image and underlying messages, we settled on the current logo. We were especially impressed with how well turtle story had been able to bring our vision into reality. As a design specialist, it was particularly gratifying.

What was the team composition?

The creative director, a graphic designer and a junior designer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Our logo and business cards have clearly proved their worth in terms of recall value. But an even further impressive factor, is that whenever we decide to expand our portfolio further, our branding will still be highly relevant and on point.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I was coordinating directly with the turtle team myself. The team was very efficient with very quick response time.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Turtle Story’s creativity, speed of response, and professionalism were above par. The founder’s involvement at all times was a big plus. We will surely keep going back to them for all future needs. They are already working on our website design. We are happy to have found the turtle story.

Are there any areas for improvement?

They did a splendid job, nothing comes to my mind. I think it's a well rounded team.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the founder of Russet Furniture Studio based in Mumbai. We are a premium furniture brand that celebrates Indian heritage and craftsmanship through designs that are functional, elegant and contemporary.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire The Turtle Story?

We had a clear vision of how we want to position our brand in the market. We needed an agency who could understand and appreciate the value that Russet was offering to its customers.

After meeting a bunch of agencies, The turtle story became an obvious choice because the team not only were great with the creativity but also understood the business perspective of the project.

We tested them out with the logo design and after the first concept presentation itself we decided to hand over the complete creative requirements to them. Turtle did our entire branding, website, social media, marketing collaterals and brand launch

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to create a sophisticated and timeless imagery of the brand and yet be in the contemporary space. I think the team had done a great job of translating our emotions into a tangible form.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We were introduced to the turtle story by one of my architect client who had done their logo and company presentation. At that point we were already discussing this project with 4 /5 agencies in Mumbai. But in a couple of sessions of exchanging ideas I was sure they were the right fit for us.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

The process started with me giving a brief of what i had in mind in terms of capturing the Indianness and yet being global. we shared the images of the furniture pieces of our first collection for the teams reference.

The Turtle team then came back to us with two branding approaches we could take to build the brand. We were really impressed with the approach presented and like a typical client ( which I was told later :)) we kind of merged the two ideas and asked the team to detail it further.

The next presentation we were shown the logo, colors, copy, and basically all the elements to build the identity including the tags on the furniture and labels and brass pins on furniture. I think the logo has come out really well and it looks great even on the products. We requested for some minor tweaks and in the next presentation our logo was ready.

Brand guide was then finalized following which the website and social media artworks were done. The styling and photography was also done by the turtle team.

What was the team composition?

The founder who is also their creative head was my point of contact. He was leading the project along with 2 graphic designers, a copywriter and a product designer who was also the photographer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Everyone, literally, loves our logo and the story behind it. The way the social media is handled and also the marketing collaterals, has certainly given us an edge over our competition. There is a certain sophisticating and grace in all our branding and promotional material.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I think both the teams just loved what they were creating and therefore it was pretty seamless. It was truly a demonstration of teamwork. The teams were very proactive and hence we managed to complete the project in the estimated timelines which was a pleasant surprise.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their involvement and ownership! They drove this as their own and with so much passion. I think the founder's direct involvement in the project has a huge impact on the creative outcome and also on the overall experience

Are there any areas for improvement?

I am pretty happy with our association.
