Branding & Visual Identity

Strategic design that speaks louder, looks sharper, and works harder for your business.

Your brand isn’t just a logo. It’s the reputation you build, the feeling people get when they interact with your business, and the reason they choose you over your competitors. At Lime Design Studio, we craft brand identities that are not only visually striking, but purpose-driven, consistent, and built to last.

Whether you’re starting fresh or levelling up a tired identity, we’ll help you create a brand that’s confident, recognisable, and aligned with where your business is heading.

What Branding Means

It’s more than good looks. It’s strategy in disguise.

Great design starts with understanding. We dig into your values, goals, and audience to build a brand that tells your story clearly, and makes sure the right people are listening.

We ask...

  • What makes you different?

  • Who do you want to attract?

  • What’s the gap between how you’re seen and how you want to be seen?

  • How do you want your audience to feel when they see your brand?

Then we create the visual tools to support that journey.

Is It Time to Rebrand?

Not sure if your branding still fits? Here are some tell tale signs it might be holding you back:

  • You’ve outgrown your current look

    Your business has evolved, but your branding hasn’t. Maybe you’ve expanded your services, shifted your audience, or grown in confidence, and your old logo or visuals no longer reflect where you’re headed.

  • Your logo doesn’t work well across platforms

    What looked okay on a business card now feels awkward on your website or gets lost on social media. A great brand should be flexible, responsive, and look just as strong in a tiny Instagram icon as it does on a billboard.

  • Your brand doesn’t match your professionalism

    You deliver a high-quality service, but your branding doesn’t reflect that. When customers see your materials, they don’t get the right impression of the level you operate at. That disconnect can be costing you trust (and leads).

  • Your competitors are catching more attention

    You know you’re better at what you do, but others with slicker branding are winning the visibility game. A strong visual identity helps you stand out and be taken seriously in a competitive market.

  • Your team is inconsistent with how things are presented

    Your proposals, PowerPoints, or social posts all look different depending on who’s created them. Without a clear brand system, consistency suffers, and inconsistency leads to confusion and a diluted message.

If any of these sound familiar, it might be time to rebrand, or at least rethink how your identity is showing up.

We’ll help you make sure your brand reflects the business you’ve become (and the one you’re growing into).
