Brand ops office hours
Monthly office hours to review campaigns against the system rules.
We bring narrative, visual language, and implementation constraints together early - so the first landing page and the fiftieth product screen share tokens, type scales, and motion rules engineers can adopt.
Often paired with: UI/UX · 3D and rendering · Content and CMS.
A brand isn’t a PDF - it’s decisions repeated in Figma and code.
Marks, color systems, typography, and usage rules tested on real touchpoints - favicons, app icons, decks, and social - not just the hero mockup.
We start by exploring positioning tension: who you are for, who you are not for, and the few attributes you want people to remember. Visual directions are scored on accessibility, motion, and production constraints.
Deliverables include master artwork, safe zones, minimum sizes, and monochrome / reversed treatments so partners don’t improvise under pressure.
Semantic tokens, spacing scales, elevation, and naming conventions that map cleanly to CSS variables or platform themes.
We define primitives, then semantic aliases (e.g. surface.default, text.muted), so redesigns don’t require renaming every component.
Documentation covers contribution, versioning, and deprecation - so the system survives the next hiring spurt.
Figma kits and coded counterparts with props, variants, and states that match how engineers actually assemble screens.
We align atomic vs. composite boundaries, slot patterns for marketing vs. product, and how content editors will stress-test each component.
When Storybook or similar is in play, we mirror naming and default props so design QA has a single checklist.
Patterns for slides, social, and email with do/don’t examples - short enough that teams open them weekly.
We prioritize the scenarios your team repeats: pitch decks, changelog posts, hiring banners, and partner co-marks. Each one gets a template, not a paragraph of adjectives.
Optional Notion or microsite format so search and updates beat the frozen-PDF problem.
“For the first time, marketing and product both pull from the same token set - our slides finally match the app.”
We invest where client roadmaps are heading - carefully piloted, not as slideware.
Monthly office hours to review campaigns against the system rules.
Parent / sub-brand token strategies for portfolios.
Linting marketing copy against banned claims and voice rules - human approval required.
A quarterly diff between the Figma library and Storybook props.
Identity and system work broken into reviewable milestones.
If you need full UI flows or research before the brand settles, UI/UX discovery can run ahead of or alongside the identity work.
Ownership, file formats, and how we work with your marketing and engineering leads.
Ask a specific questionLogo, identity, print, and social - pages by city.
Tell us where the brand breaks today - slides, product, or partner channels - and we’ll suggest the right depth of identity, system, or guidelines work.
