FAQ

Questions, answered.

Still unsure? Talk to a Brand specialist directly.

Ask us anything
Can you work with our existing manufacturer?+

Yes. We brief your printer or converter directly and review proofs with them before production.

Do you design for sustainability?+

We can — recyclable substrates, less ink coverage and right-sized formats are weighed in the structural phase.

How long does a brand identity project take?+

Typically 6–10 weeks — strategy runs 2–3 weeks, design 3–5 weeks, guidelines and rollout 1–2 weeks.

Do you handle packaging production, or just design?+

Design and structural work is in-house; we coordinate directly with your printers and vendors to keep production quality consistent.

Can you work with an existing identity instead of starting fresh?+

Yes — most engagements are evolution work, not rebuilds. We audit what's working before recommending any changes.
