Common Branding Questions

  • Kind of similar to asking how much a wedding dress or car costs - every business owner has different needs and visions. At Design Method Studio, we tailor each project based on three key factors:

    1. The Depth of Your Brand Identity

    2. The Level of Customization Required

    3. Your Brand and Business Growth Goals

  • Each brand identity design timeline varies, though our studio likes to keep things effectively short and sweet with projects usually ranging from 6-12 weeks for most design services.

  • Creating a unique logo begins with exploration. Your logo should capture the heart of your business—the values, the passion, and the impact you want to make. Before you even think about design, ask yourself: What makes my business special? What do I stand for? What do I want people to feel when they see my logo? Once you have these answers, our custom logo design process takes over to ensure your brand stands out.

  • Our branding packages include strategy, brand identity design, logo design, and brand guidelines. We tailor our approach to fit your business needs.
