intensives

Gain confidence, clarity, and a new look for your brand

in weeks, not months

A Design Intensive is a highly structured design schedule where we’ll alternate between design-focused days and revision-focused days for a week of design work with gorgeous results. Design Intensives are best for those starting out or looking to book smaller projects. They are quick-paced and require clients to be ready to take action and make decisions.

one week projects

A one-week design sprint can deliver meaningful and beautiful results that transform your brand. Whether you need branding to launch your new business or product photos to help you shine on your social media and website, we can craft intentional results to meet your vision. While many studios offer design days, we believe in having time to refine and polish your design. To that end, we believe a week is the sweet spot for creating magic. Book a single week or stack 2 or more weeks to get everything you need in an accelerated timeline.

Here are a few common options for one-week design intensives….

 
option 01

simple BRAND styling

A beautiful, strategic brand to set the foundations for growth. Whether you need a visual foundation to build your digital presence or you just don’t need a website, starting with brand styling allows us to set a strong creative footing.

design intensives are for you if…

01

You’ve tried to DIY your brand or maybe you hired a designer before, but the aesthetic just isn’t capturing the right feels.

02

You’re ready to launch a new offering and you need a distinct feel and authentic visuals to set it apart. Whether it’s a course or a new product line, it needs to capture hearts. So far the overall vibe is nervous.

03

You’re new in business and know you need a cohesive brand suite that resonates with the right people but you don’t have the 3 months or the budget to invest in a complete identity suite.

  • Simple Brand Styling has a strategy component but does not include brand strategy, brand story, brand voice, or market strategy.

  • Full projects are more in-depth and full-service. Intensives focus on creating meaningful visuals in a quick timeline. Intensives work best for decisive clients who have tighter budgets or don’t need the full depth of strategy and design assets.

  • There is a minimum 2-week lead time for all design projects. Most likely you will need to schedule one to two months beforehand. Design intensives have limited availability and book out quickly.

  • No. Unlike our full-service design projects, design intensives require you to have web-read copy and images for the website.

    If you are on a tight deadline and need these services, you can book an additional week to hand off copy and image gathering or editing to the studio.
