[orange]The first step to devising a visual

AREThereÕs a lot of talk* about @ values, personality, behavior, and reputation. Human attributes like these are rigorously assigned to brands and brand products as well. They inform the Õlook and feelÕ of visual identity.

Brands and products are intended to be ÕreadÕ

What they lack, more often than not,

[green]STORY --- [/green] ping-pong
[white]WE CREATE STORIES[/white]
A good story can be built upon, altered,
extended, transformed, re-imagined ...
without sacrificing the strength of the original narrative, or compromising the validity of its
overall form.
[black]As story, design becomes an event ...[/black]
with a common theme, variable plotlines,
shared conclusions. Creating stories at the outset of the design process ---whatever the goal--- promotes clear thinking.
[black]People are engaged.[/black]
The unexpected is courted,
rather than calculated out.
Flawed logic is easily detected.
[black]Ideas come to life.[/black]
Visual strategy becomes an interesting topic of conversation at cocktail parties* because it is
no longer an abstract conceptual Õsomething,Õ
[black]it is a story.
