Branding and Design

Graphic design uses visual compositions to solve problems and communicate ideas through typography, imagery, color and form. There’s no one way to do that, and that’s why there are several types of graphic design, each with their own area of specialization. Though they often overlap, each type of graphic design requires specific set of skills and design techniques. SICHWA specializes in vast areas of graphic design because the industry is constantly changing and so designers must be adaptable and lifelong learners so they can change and add specializations throughout the career.

Graphic design packages at SICHWA

1. Visual identity graphic design

A brand is a relationship between a business or organization and its audience. A brand identity is how the organization communicates its personality, tone and essence, as well as memories, emotions and experiences. Visual identity graphic design is exactly that: the visual elements of brand identity that act as the face of a brand to communicate those intangible qualities through images, shapes and color.
In this area, we collaborate with brand stakeholders to create assets like logos, typography, color palettes and image libraries that represent a brand’s personality.

2. Marketing & advertising graphic design

When most people think of graphic design, they think of designs created for marketing and advertising. Companies depend on successful marketing efforts to tap into their target audience’s decision-making process. Great marketing engages people based on the wants, needs, awareness and satisfaction they have about a product, service or brand. Since people will always find visual content more engaging, graphic design helps organizations promote and communicate more effectively. Examples here include;
