The Strategy

By repositioning the brand through a top level strategy, we are able to help the interior design business provide more value to their client engagements through an increase in perceived value. This strategy of further specializing the brand also accomplishes the differentiation goal of helping our client standout from her competition in an oversaturated market.

The Design

Creating an identity design that works towards our strategy’s goals as well as empowers the brand to further grow was key to developing a brand that signals to the right audience with the right message. The minimalistic approach of the wordmark design accompanied by the unique hexagon shape creates a fascinating visual that is scalable and draws attention to the familiar imagery of the likable name. It is contemporary yet balances a timeless essence that reflects the interior design style of the business. By signaling through the aesthetics we help the brand to resonate with those who not only look for this essence, but feel the warmth, stability, and professionalism of the logo and identity design.

The Creative Solution*

Through further specializing the brand it is able to not only standout from the crowd but also deliver more value. The brand strategy in tandem with full identity design creates and entire experience focused on reinforcing the business model as well as the brand’s positioning.

Brand Extension

Honey Cabinetry

Honey Cabinetry is the cabinetry product line created for Honeycomb Home Design. When the interior design studio wanted to extend its offering into high-quality custom cabinetry, the new brand needed to feel connected to Honeycomb while standing on its own. Motif developed the Honey Cabinetry name and distinct wordmark identity, creating a brand extension now installed in custom homes and remodels.
