When we started, I had a super basic brand deck. I knew what colors and language I wanted to use and the new name of the brand. After short briefing and project plan - we worked on our logo, fonts, and honed in on the color scale. We determined our target audience — their age, income, location — and identified the most effective way to reach them by design and right packaging with what we can be outstanding on shelf. Finally, developed my website using Shopify.
