Independent Teacher Brand Strategy

An inspiring independent teacher, needed a complete digital identity from scratch. Our task was to create a compelling website, along with a cohesive logo, icon set, and visual identity.

Project Overview

From Scratch.

The website was designed with a primary focus on providing comprehensive information about Ms. Reese’s teaching services, facilitating easy online bookings, and establishing a sense of legitimacy and professionalism for her business. The site serves as a central hub for potential clients to learn about her educational approach, view her credentials, and seamlessly book her services.

The Building Blocks

Elements of the Visual and Brand Identity

Color Palette

The chosen color palette is inspired from the building blocks one would interact with.

Typography

The font is intended to be blockier, making it remind users of the similar feeling of the palette.

Iconography

We designed a set of unique icons that represent various aspects of Ms. Reese's teaching practice.

Logo

It features a clean, modern typeface paired with a subtle educational motif, reflecting her dedication to teaching and her students' success.

Brandmark

The brandmark, a distinct visual element derived from the logo, serves as a recognizable symbol of Ms. Reese’s brand.

Copy Direction

The tone is friendly and approachable, yet professional, aiming to build trust and encourage potential clients to book her services.

Easy as ABC… 123…

Patterns.

Subtle patterns are used to add texture and depth to the site’s background, making the pages visually appealing without distracting from the content.

Use of Color

Blue brings calm and trust, green symbolizes growth and harmony, yellow radiates energy and joy, while pink adds a touch of creativity and warmth. Together, they create an inviting and imaginative experience for Ms. Reese's clients.

Keep it Consistent.

To ensure a cohesive user experience, we maintained a consistent visual style across all pages. This includes the use of the same color palette, typography, and design elements, reinforcing Ms. Reese's brand identity.

Photography

The photography on the site is authentic and relatable, featuring Ms. Reese interacting with her students. This approach helps build a personal connection with the site visitors.
