Identity: step-by-step instructions

Identity is a systematic design task, which should be solved sequentially: from the customer’s desires and the search for ideas to the creation of style and development of the guideline. You will learn the fundamental approach to identity. You will learn what the style consists of, what brand aesthetics can be, how to structure the design system and adapt it to different formats. You will learn how to organize your work and interact with clients, as the instructor will share contract and commercial proposal templates. As a result, each student will add a conceptual case to his or her portfolio.
