Boson Protocol came to We and Bold to create a brand identity that would stand out in the rapidly growing crypto market. Because Boson Protocol uses cutting-edge technology, transforming digital currencies into a physical products, it needs an identity to match it's futuristic enterprise.
Challenges:

The Process

I used We and Bold's Client Benchmark to understand the vision of Boson Protocol's founders and with that in mind, began researching where Boson stood in the market itself. We begin the brand design process by first creating a mood board based on the overlap of the client's vision and research findings.

Wrapping up
What have I learned from this project?
Research is a must: Aligning your brand to other's in the market helps your brand reach its target audience
Brand Identity Guides are powerful: Consistency is key to creating a recognizable brand
The client is always right: Creating iterations of design elements for the client to choose from helps optimize the design process and allows for efficient communication and therefor better relationships.
