The logotype features bold, recognizable typography that evokes harmony, unity, and playfulness—reflecting confidence in embracing being second.

The bold color palette, anchored in the no-nonsense combo of black & white, was crafted to be endlessly adaptable—keeping the visual identity versatile.

The manifesto, navigated both the studio's brand & creative direction, leading to a straightforward positioning of the studio brand and a confident brand personality.

At 2nd Best Studio, I spearheaded the transformation of the studio’s brand identity and creative direction.

As the studio's Head of Brand / Creative Director, my role involved not only crafting a cohesive strategic vision but also embedding its mission into daily creative operations. This approach helped align the team around a unified brand story, inspiring both existing and potential clients.

The resulting work not only included a logo, website, and some fancy giphy's, but strategic tools developed to adapt and evolve—ensuring the studio should be ready for the next day. Every day.
