Description (ECIAD)Creating value for businesses, whether large or small, often starts with effective branding. This course explores how to connect with consumers through authentic brand strategy and storytelling. Students will design cohesive visual identities, crafting elements like logos, colour palettes, and packaging, alongside non-visual components such as taglines and tone. Through project-based learning, you will build memorable, iconic brands while effectively communicating their value. Using design thinking, mood boards, and typographic standards, develop your own distinct visual language and compile them into a professional visual standards guide. Prior experience with Adobe Illustrator is required.
