Small wins, steady progress 🚀

Currently sitting at 198 points on Contra! 🎯

Building my freelance journey as a brand identity and packaging designer has been a learning experience. Every project, connection, and conversation is another step forward.

I’m curious, for those of you on Contra, how much attention do you pay to your Discovery Score, and what have you found actually helps improve your visibility on the platform?

Would love to hear your experiences and tips! 🤝

The hardest brief in identity work is "make us look serious without making us look corporate." Serious comes from consistency. Corporate comes from removing anything a person chose.

"Corporate comes from removing anything a person chose" is going straight in my notes. I'd push it further though, I think a lot of that removal happens in legal and stakeholder review, not the initial design pass. Do you find the fight is more with the client's own instincts or with whoever signs off after them?

Option A - Deep Green Option B - Soft Blue Which direction feels stronger for AEROVA?
