Brand Identity Development — Logo Design, Collateral, and Strategy
Our brand identity development and strategy makes your brand more competitive and gives it a sense of familiarity audiences need.
When we started working with Burrell Behavioral Health in 2017, it was an established organization with a brand image that fell short of reflecting its mission to make mental health care in Missouri more accessible and break down damaging perceptions about seeking care. We collaborated alongside the Burrell team to understand the compassion and progressiveness driving their future goals and responded by creating a refreshed brand look that supported its transition from its past self to a future-oriented, highly accessible entity for people from all walks of life.
The updated brand and associated collateral now portrays openness and approachability and complements the Burrell mission. We even invoked a little playfulness into the logo with subtle chat bubbles, which are a nod to Burrell's new tagline, "Time to Chat."

Brand Positioning
We’ve got a thing for figuring out what values and differentiators makes your brand truly great.
To help the brands we work with find the right ways to showcase themselves, we dive into collaborative sessions that answer questions about what your brand should look and sound like. We get deep into voice and tone explorations, brand differentiator development, mood boards, and other creative services that help us get to the root of your brand's true identity.
When we started working with The Carpet Shoppe in 2017, our research and brand positioning phases helped us understand that the flooring company's decades-long commitment to expertise, service, product quality, and locality were way more important to audiences than the vanilla experience big box stores had to offer. Instead of attempting to reinvent The Carpet Shoppe’s brand and dilute its past, we leaned into what had made them so recognizable after so many years—a “heritage” feel, an iconic storefront, and an increasingly rare reputation for class and one-on-one care.

Our brand collateral and campaigns help you be you—in all the right places.
Our team of designers, writers, and managers keep your established brand identity close by so that every message, color palette, and overall feeling we put into marketing campaigns and collateral gives your audience a sense of familiarity about your brand.
Ascend Dental Design, a Springfield, Mo.-based dental practice with a profound commitment to attentive, family-like care, asked us to help them make their digital brand stand out in a congested market that’s tough for dental patients to navigate. After taking the Ascend team through a clarifying brand positioning phase, we set out to build audience recall and open the door to consultations by presenting Ascend’s newly unified brand message on its website, on social media platforms, and in the community it faithfully serves.
