Brand Design System — Visual Framework + Repeatable Templates
Developed a repeatable brand design system that transforms an initial brief and logo exploration into a structured, scalable visual language. Workflow combines Illustrator-based logo development, visual rule creation, Claude Code documentation, Claude Design templates, and systematic application across documents and brand assets.

Outcome
Turned a brand concept into a scalable design system covering logo direction, visual rules, style guide documentation, reusable templates, and consistent application across all documents and visual touchpoints. The system-first approach — rules before assets — means any team member can extend the brand without breaking it. Rejected the common logo + colour palette approach in favour of a documented token layer that governs every output.
