Have you also heard this quote? 👀 🌟 "Great things have small beginnings." 🌟 As graphic designers, we know every big idea starts small. 📈 When I started designing, I started with simple graphics. Those small steps helped me create more complicated work today. Each line and color leads to something great. Our creative process starts with a small idea. With Hard & Smart work, that idea can become beautiful art that catches attention and helps brands. For new graphic designers, remember that "great things have small beginnings." Welcome those small beginnings and keep going. We all have the potential for greatness. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Are you a Founder, Coach, or Business Owner struggling to create a user-friendly brand?

Picture this: You think a logo alone is enough to start, but soon, your idea gains traction, and you quickly expand. Suddenly, you’re not just a website anymore—you need social media assets, event materials, pitch decks, and more. Traditionally, you had two choices: a) spend more money on a brand refresh to include new elements; b) continue growing with inconsistent or repetitive communications. Or… you could begin with well-defined guidelines, modular components, diverse typography, and a spectrum of colors that make sense—a ✨ visual system ✨, a.k.a. your brand’s own language, like a robust yet flexible organism that grows and adapts to your pace. After assisting over 100 startups in positioning themselves in the market, we’ve realized that a scalable design framework is non-negotiable, particularly for early-stage ventures. Why? Visual systems ensure the brand remains true to its core identity while embracing change. Smart companies anticipate their evolution from day one, whether it involves introducing new products, entering different markets, or even pivoting. In a world where change is the only constant, we embrace the power of adaptability and design fluid identities that can accommodate all stages inherent to the startup lifecycle. Let’s connect and create a brand for the future that scales with—ensuring every new chapter feels like a well-planned sequel rather than a hasty spin-off. #StartupBranding #VisualIdentity #BrandGrowth #DesignThinking #StartupLife #VisualSystems #Branding

Buckle up folks, time for some truthin’: fixating on colours just isn’t where your brand's soul lies. The more time you spend on it, the more stuck in the mud you’ll get. When we craft a brand, we're not sifting through paint swatches like it's some kind of home reno project. We're digging deep into the guts of your story. Why? Because that's where your truth sits. I'm sympathetic to this. You know colours, you can articulate colours. You want to bring something to the table when it comes to your brand. Your brand isn’t just a fancy colour scheme or some designer's pet project. It's the tale that grabs people by the heart strings and refuses to let go. Sure, colours matter, there are whole theories around why your tech start-up should use blue, but let's not lose sight of what truly matters. Your colours alone aren't going to change the hearts and minds of the masses, McDonald's doesn't just have yellow and red splattered about. They have the arches, they have catch phrases and jingles, they have a clown, a hyper niched thief and a purple anthropomorphic taste buds. All of this is brought under the umbrella of a focused and evolving story. We could sit around debating colour wheels till the cows come home, but without a damn good story, those colours are about as meaningful as a blank canvas. The most important thing you can bring to the table is your story. To us it's where it all starts. It's your story that planted the seed that has gotten you to this point and what so much will grow from. So, whether you are working alongside us at Storytale making the best stories in the world or another amazing studio, do yourself a favour and cut through the noise and focus on what really matters – your story. Because when it comes to branding, it's the narrative that separates the legends from the forgettable. #brandingagency #designstudio #storytelling #startups #brandstrategy #branding #design

Founders:  Does your startup branding and website, looks same as others?  Are you struggling to stand out? You probably have a thoughtful design challenge to overcome.

🌟 Why Every Startup Needs a Founding Designer 🌟 In any tech startup, having a founding designer isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s essential! A founding designer doesn’t just create visuals; they define the brand’s DNA from day one. Think of it as setting the emotional and experiential foundation that draws people in and keeps them connected. 🎨💡 When I crafted the brand identity for Tyende, I brought this founding designer mindset to the table. 🧩 The visual language wasn’t just about logos or colors—it was about making Tyende’s personality clear and unforgettable. Every design choice was intentional, built to communicate Tyende’s values in a way that clients would immediately feel. 💥💙 📖 The Brand Guide I created next? That’s Tyende’s blueprint for growth! It ensures that every piece of the brand stays consistent, no matter how big Tyende gets. Watching this guide on display, you can see how every detail builds toward a unified message, helping Tyende stay unmistakably “Tyende” as it scales. 📈✨ As a founding designer, my goal is simple: bring clarity, consistency, and a brand that grows with its users. The result? A brand identity that’s as unique and enduring as the vision behind it. 🚀🔥 #BrandDesign #FoundingDesigner #Tyende #StartupLife #BrandIdentity #DesignMatters #Entrepreneurship #DesignForGrowth #BrandGuide #DigitalDesign #CreativeProcess

𝗠𝘆 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 Every design has a story, and today, I want to share mine. Recently, I worked on a logo design for a startup, and the journey from concept to completion was both challenging and rewarding. I began with brainstorming sessions, followed by sketching out initial ideas. After multiple revisions and feedback loops, I arrived at the final design that both the client and I were thrilled with. It’s amazing to see how raw ideas can transform into something impactful with the right process and persistence. #logodesign #logo #graphicdesign #brandidentity
