What you get
A complete brand identity, logo, color, typography, and a usable brand book, so your business looks consistent and recognizable everywhere it shows up.
A brand identity is the system that makes your business recognizable and trusted at a glance, not just a logo. We design the whole identity: logo, color, typography, and supporting elements, then document it in a brand book your team and any future vendor can follow. The result is a business that looks consistent and deliberate across your site, social, and sales material.
A systemized engagement, so the work moves fast without cutting corners.
- 01
Discovery and direction
We start by learning your business, your audience, and how you want to be seen, plus a look at the competitors you need to stand apart from. This grounds the design in strategy, so every visual choice has a reason behind it rather than being decoration picked on taste alone.
- 02
Logo and core marks
We design your logo and its variations: the primary mark, a stacked or compact version, and a monogram or icon for tight spaces. You see distinct directions, choose one, and we refine it. Designing the full set, not a single lockup, is what makes the logo work everywhere you actually use it.
- 03
Color and typography
We build the color palette and typography system that carry the brand across everything you produce. Each is chosen for how it reads on screen and in print, with the hierarchy and combinations defined, so the brand stays legible and recognizable whether it is a headline or fine print.
- 04
Supporting elements
We design the supporting pieces that make the identity feel complete: iconography style, imagery direction, and the patterns or graphic details that extend the look. These are what let the brand stretch across many formats while still reading as one coherent system rather than a lone logo.
- 05
Brand book and handover
We package everything into a brand book that shows how to use the identity, with clear do and do not examples, plus all the logo files in production formats. You own the source files and the guidelines, so your team and any future designer can apply the brand correctly for years.
Everything you walk away with, owned by you with no lock-in.
- A primary logo plus stacked, compact, and monogram or icon variations.

The things buyers ask us before they start.
What is included in a brand identity?+
A brand identity includes your logo and its variations, a color palette, a typography system, and supporting elements like iconography and imagery direction, all documented in a brand book. It is the complete visual system, not just a logo, so your business looks consistent everywhere it appears.
What is the difference between a logo and a brand identity?+
A logo is a single mark. A brand identity is the whole system around it: the logo variations, colors, typography, and supporting elements that make your business recognizable across every channel. A logo on its own cannot keep your website, social, and print looking like one coherent brand; an identity can.
Do I get a brand guide I can hand to other designers?+
Yes. You receive a brand book that documents how to use the identity correctly, with do and do not examples, plus all the source and logo files. Any future designer or vendor can follow it, so your brand stays consistent no matter who produces the work.
Can you apply the new brand to my website and materials?+
Yes. The identity is designed with real use in mind, and we can apply it to your website, social profiles, and sales material as a follow-on. Many clients have us design the brand and then build the website on top of it as one connected project.
Do I own the logo and brand files?+
Yes. You own everything after delivery: the source files, the logo in all formats, and the guidelines, with full commercial rights. Nothing is held back, so the brand is yours to use and extend however your business needs.
How much does brand identity design cost?+
It depends on the scope: how many logo variations, how complete the system, and how much supporting material you need. We scope it on a short call and give a fixed quote before work begins, so there are no surprises. You can also get a fast ballpark from HiKit AI.
