How to build a great corporate design for your business
When it comes to building a business, there are a ton of terms you’ll hear getting thrown around—”differentiators” and “KPIs” and “brand recognition,” oh my! But there’s one term that doesn’t quite get the attention it deserves, and it’s the granddaddy of them all—and that’s corporate design.
When we say “corporate design,” we’re talking about more than traditional graphic design; it’s a blanket term used to cover both the strategy (like your branding) and design (like your brand identity) side of your corporate identity. It’s the assets you create (like your logo) and the reasoning behind why you design them in a specific way. It’s both who you are to your customer and how you’re going to deliver your message. So, needless to say, it’s kind of a big deal.
