We help uncover what is truly unique about your organization and define it through carefully crafted messaging, visual identity and branded elements.

The involvement of each key stakeholder is critical to uncovering the perceptions, and mis-perceptions of your company and/or products. Internal employees will usually have a different idea of your company than your executive team or board of directors. Your customers will also offer a very different impression. Hearing from everyone, and collecting every side of the story will help develop a well-rounded perspective.

Getting internal buy-in on your company’s brand position and key differentiators will build a firm foundation for crafting outward-facing messaging moving forward.

In this phase we will connect the messaging platform to a powerful visual brand. We will define the logo, color palette, typography, and visual elements.

Once the visual brand identity is clearly defined and signed off on, we will move into the design phase for necessary collateral and touch points. All output from the previous phases will be implemented to create an aesthetic that will connect with the consumer through a refined and sophisticated look and feel.

Branding is what we do, day in and day out. We help uncover what is truly unique about your organization and define it through carefully crafted messaging, visual identity and branded elements.

A tasty visual experience that covers everything from naming and branding to web and signage.

The Corktown Pizza Company brand embodies a whimsical charm through hand-drawn, historic illustrations, paired with a striking monochromatic color scheme that underscores the brand's rich Detroit heritage and artisanal pizza craftsmanship. The original logo concept was created as an homage to the signage found in the historic Corktown neighborhood in Detroit.

The Horn

The Horn is an upscale night club in Dubai. They came to Keen with a name, and asked us to help with the visual brand. In this case, the ways to express the direction were seemingly endless. Each direction was hand illustrated by the team at Keen. We ended on a gilded mark with a hand-lettered word mark.
