Brand strategy, identity and consultancy. Southsea, Portsmouth. Clients across the UK.
OVERTONE is an independent brand strategy and design agency based in Portsmouth, Hampshire, working with clients across the UK. We believe lasting brands are built on solid strategic foundations. The work starts with research into your market and your competitors, and a position agreed before any design begins. Everything afterwards answers to it, which means you can explain your brand to anyone who asks, and so can we. Brands should still make sense in 10 years’ time. Trends date, so we don’t design to them. Every decision earns its place, and nothing is added for effect. We work across brand strategy and positioning, brand identity design, and consultancy for businesses that already have an identity. OVERTONE was founded by Sam Leonard-Rendell, who has worked in brand design since 2013 and has designed brand identity work for Tilda, SEGA, Vimto, Fujifilm and KFC.

  • Description
    We start with the market, the competitors you're up against, and deep research into the industry you’re operating within. Out of that comes a defined position and a messaging structure, and a white space your business can shout within. It's what the identity gets built on, and it underpins every design decision. You finish with a positioning and messaging framework and a tone of voice document. Both are written so anyone who writes for you can use them, including people who've never spoken to us.

  • Description
    Design direction comes out of the research and positioning, so routes are built on a solid foundation. Every decision traces back to the strategy. Type, colour, imagery. Everything. The answer leads back to the positioning. Nothing in the identity is there because it's on trend. You finish with master artwork in the formats you need, and guidelines someone else can pick up and follow.
