CREATIVE DIRECTION
The knack to creating resonance with your audiences is all about communicating with authenticity. Art Direction is a creative process where the designer builds a visual universe which communicates a big idea in the most believable terms. This means creating bespoke imagery with a large emphasis on authenticity. The audience needs to be able to project their own world into what you are trying to communicate. At the same time, it can’t be dull, as it needs to stand out from the crowd. The balance comes from creating something authentic yet unique. We have worked with the finest photographers and illustrators in creating striking visual narratives.

DIGITAL EXPERIENCE DESIGN AND UI
Digital design is all about merging a visual world with an interactive, human-centric experience. We ensure our design outputs work with the best intent by putting them through stringent testing. We host workshops with multiple users working within prototypes that we have built. We set them tasks and we measure how quickly they fulfil these tasks. Then we consult with them asking how their experiences can be improved. We go back to the prototype and refit it. Then it’s all rinse and repeat. In tandem with the design of experience comes the design of the interface. We obsess about pixels and alignment points. We create design that’s memorable yet within a logical, expected framework.

We have a wide portfolio of print and corporate communications. It’s always important for businesses to carry credibility with a strong printed piece. It also works fundamentally well in a mental space where people just don’t have the tolerance to play with technology. It’s immediate and emotional. Print can be super effective in the sales process, getting people hooked on its tactile appearance.
Print is tactile, immediate and emotional
SOCIAL, CONTENT AND PR
Modern SEO, as you know, is all about the richness of content. Rich content ensures it is shared and encourages referrals from other domains. This ultimately builds your online reputation and thus traffic. We work together with you on defining editorial and thematic concepts, which we turn into storytelling. This involves content creation through copy, infographics, visuals and video.
