Visual Guidelines for a Mission-driven Team

Speak With Purpose (SWP) is a Seattle-based nonprofit and the only public speaking program integrated into classroom learning across King County. Founded in 2012 by Toyia T. Taylor, SWP serves students in grades 3–8 at Title I schools blending oratory, writing, and performing arts to build self-authored identities and confident young advocates.

Challenge

Extend an established SaaS brand into a cohesive sales campaign without losing the equity, recognition, or intelligence already built into the system.

Art Direction

I developed the visual direction across campaign touchpoints, evolving Craft’s existing brand language into a clearer, more dynamic system for communicating complex supply-chain intelligence.


As Brand Manager, I guided creative execution across marketing, sales, digital and production teams, maintaining brand consistency while aligning designers, stakeholders and deliverables around a shared campaign vision.

Solution

A flexible campaign system that gave Craft’s sales and marketing teams a stronger visual toolkit. Brand standards for multiple touch-points were capable of translating sophisticated data into compelling, accessible brand experiences across print, digital, video and experiential applications.

Reflection

The most transformative work wasn't the design — it was building the systems that let a small team produce great design without a designer in the room every time.

Najela

The visual and strategic excellence of Blanc 4’s new brand identity received widespread acclaim, setting new standards in the technology sector. The innovative designs and comprehensive brand guidelines played a crucial role in the rebranding's success.
