Learn the creative process for developing branded products that add value to your brand

A brand and its language are defined by the elements that shape its visual identity. When combined, these elements are capable of awakening emotions and creating an instant connection with an audience. With the idea of generating unique experiences through graphic design, Carmo Mineiro and Joana Rangel founded Love Street Studio, a multidisciplinary branding studio that has collaborated with companies like Sony Music, Kencko, and Babel.

In this course, learn how to create different branding elements, from concept, logo, typography, and color, all the way to the final formatting and print. Alongside Carmo and Joana, see how to develop a series of graphic materials that are filled with personality and add value to your brand.
