STEP 01.

The Design Process

This is the exact process you can expect from your KH Experience. We are very structured to make the process easy, enjoyable and collaborative!

  • You do some homework, we do some research and we both dream big on a private Pinterest board. This is where it all begins so let’s leap in with intention and alignment!

  • Say hello to your Moodboard and Colour palette! We'll spend time creating a beautiful and authentic aesthetic that aligns with your vision.

  • You’ll get two custom logo concepts custom designed by our specialist brand designers. You'll choose your favourite concept and we'll refine the final logo and variation logo based on your feedback!

  • (depends on chosen experience)

    Now that your Brand are established it’s time to design your Print + Social Kit collateral (business card, stationery, social media graphics or lead magnet).

  • (depends on chosen experience)

    Now that your brand is complete, we'll create a Brand Board so you can see it in mock-action!

  • Get ready to swap the tea for bubbly — it’s launch time! We take your brand elements and curate them into a detailed Style Guide that empowers you with direction and requirements so when you use your branding, you nail it every time.

02. Web Design Experiences

  • You do some homework, we do some research and we both dream big on a private Pinterest board. This is where it all begins so let’s leap in with intention and alignment!

  • Say hello to your Moodboard and Colour palette! We'll spend time creating a beautiful and authentic aesthetic that aligns with your vision.

  • We will create an homepage in an actual browser window. You'll be able to test out the functionality and see your branding in action!

  • We will take your official homepage and create the rest of your website based on the design. When I'm done, you'll be able to see the entire website and provide feedback so we can spruce it up until it's perfect! 

  • (depends on chosen experience)

    Now that your website is complete, we'll make sure that all the links are working, any plugins are installed and test the final features. 

  • Get ready to swap the tea for bubbly — it’s launch time! We’ll create a user manual for your website and we'll have our Virtual Launch Session where you'll gain the confidence to manage the site yourself! 

STEP 02.

The Virtual Questionnaire

Let's establish what your vision is, so we can uplevel it & launch it! Which experience have you chosen?

Be sure to click the appropriate questionnaire and allocate amount twenty minutes to read your questionnaire and write your answers.

Pinterest Board Collaboration

This is not an essential step, but it will help speed up the process and give us a general brief of your vision and how you want your final brand or website to look.

  • HOW TO CREATE YOUR Pinterest BOARD

    On Pinterest, create a secret board with the title of your business.

    Follow The KH Studio and invite me to your secret board.

    Once you've added your pins, go back through your board and leave comments on your favourites stating what you like about them.  

    • What to collect: Textures, patterns, layouts, fonts, images and graphics that represent the vibe you envision for your brand. 

    • Have a consistent colour scheme. 

    • Don't have more than 30 images on your board.

    • Refine your board. You can start with dozens of images you like but refine until you get your board exactly how you want it. If the board isn't perfect, what is missing? What needs to change? (more colour, different fonts). The point of this inspiration period is to simply be creative, enjoy it!

Typically we use Pinterest, but feel free to collate images that you consider inspiration and pop them into a folder on our shared Google Drive.
