DesignBranding 101: Building a Consistent Visual Identity
Start With a Clear Brand Story
Visual decisions are easier once you know what your brand stands for — colors and type should reinforce that story, not exist in isolation.

Design for Every Surface, Not Just the Logo
Social posts, business cards, and your website all need to feel like the same brand at a glance.
Document It
A short brand guideline — even a simple one — keeps everyone, including future freelancers or hires, consistent without reinventing decisions each time.
