Come behind the scenes with us as we re-brand Stewart Street Specialists (part one of three) đź’«

Design decisions should never be made based on personal preferences or market assumptions. This is why we invest heavily in the strategic work that guides creative decision-making.

Before ideating logos, we gather data.

This doesn’t just create a robust process, but enables us to ensure our creative work solves real business outcomes beyond aesthetic value.

It ensures all Forme designed brands are differentiated, relevant, memorable, competitive and trusted in their categories.

Our strategic process involves:
1. Define business problems to solve or outcomes to achieve
2. Gather existing data
3. Validate with quant
4. Understand with qual
5. Model & segment
6. Synthesize into strategy
7. Track over time

There’s an obvious problem within New Zealand’s healthcare system. It’s fragmented, often leaving patients uncertain about where to turn and what to expect. Long wait times, unclear processes, and a lack of accessible information creates frustration and anxiety. Referrers are navigating the system largely on personal connections and patients are increasingly holding higher expectations.

Stewart Street Specialists exists to change this. Their Christchurch-based clinic of internationally renowned specialists operates to make specialist healthcare easier to access, understand and trust.

For Stewart Street Specialists, the only really valuable competitive question is not who offers specialist care, but rather who makes that care easiest to understand and trust.

For both patients and referrers, we’ve positioned Stewart Street Specialists as a clear confidence-builder, clarifying specialities, process, steps and expectations.

The brand is a trustworthy partner in patient care, making things feel warm and easy at every touchpoint.

We designed Stewart Street Specialist’ brand identity to reflect harmony, connection and technical expertise. The colours are cool and calming. The typography places clarity above all else. The brand mark reflects technical skill, integrated relationships and unified specialities. 💫

Human made has become the new luxury as AI has become a race to the bottom.

If creativity is connecting dots that haven’t been connected before, then truly great design relies on new ideas, perspectives and insights informing creative work.

In our search for optimisation, I think we’ve grossly underestimated the need for people to be in touch with human connection.

An understanding of design principles doesn’t equate to taste, and it doesn’t necessarily equate to market success either.

A creative agency’s job is to bring true creativity strategically into the market to create real business outcomes.

So we’re doubling down on the artistry of design.

We’re bringing back the art supplies to the office.

Gathering inspiration from real life.

Using technology as a tool, not a creative. ⚡️

There’s a flawed assumption in B2B marketing that anything with colourful, personality-packed language veers into frivolous territory.

Short answer: No

Businesses aren’t made up of faceless entities in glass towers. They’re made up of actual humans who have their own opinions, preferences, and personalities.

So long as it’s appropriate for the context, injecting the right personality into your brand voice isn’t unprofessional - it’s strategic.

Yes, you could use AI as your designer - but how do you know if that work is going to grow your business and produce real, tangible results?

Marketing to an audience that doesn’t know you is like asking someone on a date at the bar without first having a conversation and building a connection.

Creating current and future demand is a powerful lever you can pull when it comes to building your business.

Only 5% of your target audience are in the market to buy from you or use your service right now. This is your current demand.

If all of your campaigns and messaging are only saying “click here”, “buy now” or “get in contact with us” - then you’re missing 95% of people who will be in the market for your product or service in the future.

To reach the 95% and create future demand, you need to build brand awareness. People need to know you exist, and they need to trust you.

You want to be the default choice in people’s minds within your industry, before they’re even in the market. Because when they are, they will be choosing you.

Check out episode where we talk about brand culture, building a brand people trust, and creating pricing power.

Are you building an environment where the best people want to work with you?

A recent study from Gallup shows that employee engagement has just dropped to 21% globally. This begs the question: what makes the best talent want to work with you?

If you’re trying shape your industry and build a team made up of individuals who are striving to expand what they are capable of and make a difference - you need to build a brand that is founded on an idea worth backing.

This doesn’t come from updating the values on the website, or launching a fancy campaign. The best talent are drawn to meaning and purpose, not persuaded by messaging. You need to build a world that aligns with your brand across all touchpoints.

Most businesses are still trying to tell people what their culture is. The businesses that stand out from the crowd are building brands where the culture doesn’t need to be told; it’s lived and experienced. A clear point of difference. A level of ambition that people want to be part of.

When you strategically build your brand on a clear point of difference, every decision is intentional. Whether that is your visuals, your workspace, your messaging - it all serves a purpose to achieve your goals.

THIS is the power of brand. ⚡️
