Strategy + Design

We kicked-off our Discovery session with exercises that take a dive into the inner workings of what makes the SunSmoke Cafe brand tick. Catering to a curious, health-conscious audience, we narrow down the brand’s attributes into an identity that reflects an engaged and reassuring brand: Jovial Advocacy.

Identifying the target audience and psychographics helps establish the needs of who the brand will speak to, thus determining a visual direction.

Three stylescapes were with varying intensities and color palettes were built as guides for our visual direction and modified until one is selected as our model to construct the logo and color palette.

What They Said

“The idea of starting my own business was both exciting and completely overwhelming. The most frustrating part was knowing my ideas, but being unable to translate them into a tangible ‘something.’ I appreciated the attention to detail delivered. It felt like a huge relief [and] I was happy to be moving forward again! Now, life looks very promising!”

— Kia Nicholson, Owner
