The Branding Process

Calm, clear, and thoughtfully guided

Branding doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. My process is designed to feel simple and supportive — so you always know what’s happening next and feel confident every step of the way. We move forward together, with clarity and care.

1 Clarity

We start with a conversation to uncover the heart of your brand—your purpose, values, goals, and ideal audience. Then, I create a brand mood board that captures your brand’s look and feel, so we’re visually aligned before design begins.

Using that foundation, I design your visual identity—logo, colors, fonts, and other brand elements—reflecting your brand personality in a simple and authentic way. You’ll provide feedback along the way to ensure everything feels just right.

Client Celebration

"I had the pleasure of working with Natsumi to create logos both for my Feng Shui and my Human Resources business, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results."

The logo she designed is not only visually convincing, but also reflects my brand identity in a subtle yet powerful way. The colors, fonts, and overall arrangement are exactly what I had hoped for—elegant, professional, and aligned with my brand values.

 Located in NYC, she worked closely with me (located in Germany), throughout the entire process despite of the different time zones and also bridged our different cultural perspectives.

 If you're looking for a branding specialist who combines creativity, professionalism, and a natural intuition for her clients’ aspirations, I highly recommend Natsumi.
