We simplify brands by helping them articulate who they are and why they exist. We then use design to communicate this purpose across everything they do.
We call this your North.
Since our founding as a modest design studio in 2014, North has grown into a full-service brand design agency, driven by a team of world-class creatives, strategists, and producers. As a smaller agency, we offer big brand and agency thinking in a systematic, agile, energetic environment.
We introduce startups to the world by giving them a name, voice, and visual identity, take established brands to the next level by articulating and communicating their value, and help brands thrive through unique campaigns and memorable experiences.

Our Brand Building Approach
We strive to build brands that thrive at the intersection of achieving your business goals, exceeding your user’s needs, and boasting award-winning aesthetics.
-
We bring your brand to life by exploring and developing your name, positioning, mission, core values, personality, and tagline.
-
We build identities (made up of your logo, typography, imagery, colour palette, and other graphic elements) that reflect the essence of your business, story, and people.
-
We compile a brand framework that includes everything from colours and fonts to rules for wording, grid systems, how to use imagery, and what is (and is not) acceptable.
-
We apply your identity to every touchpoint of your brand — button to billboard, digital to the real world. We leave room for your brand to grow, flex, evolve, and adapt across mediums.
-
We’ll support you with production services, websites, campaigns, and explainer videos to ensure your brand shows up authentically and successfully, consistently.
