A long-term identity shaped across web, campaigns, and brand communication
Product overview
This was a long-running design effort that helped shape how Gunpowder looked, sounded, and presented its work as the company grew.
Across multiple years, I contributed to website iterations, digital campaigns, traditional campaigns, flyers, posters, event materials, and broader brand communication.
Context / challenge
As Gunpowder evolved from startup to a larger IT consulting Software Factory, the identity had to keep pace with a company that was moving fast, iterating on its offer, its positioning, and how it wanted to present itself to the market.
The challenge was maintaining a coherent brand thread through each new cycle, working closely with marketing and leadership to translate evolving ambitions into consistent, credible communication.
- -Keep the brand coherent across digital and physical touchpoints
- -Reflect a broader and more mature offer without losing clarity
- -Make the company attractive to both prospective clients and potential hires
- -Work closely with marketing and leadership to translate evolving ambitions into coherent communication
Role
I was the founding designer and worked across both direction and execution over many years.
- -Shaped the visual direction and communication direction of the brand
- -Designed multiple iterations of the official website
- -Worked on campaigns, flyers, posters, event materials, and communication assets
- -Contributed to front-end execution where needed
Approach
The work was about building consistency over time, not just shipping isolated deliverables.
Each new website iteration, campaign, or printed piece had to feel part of the same company while matching a more mature stage of the business.
Key outcome
The main outcome was a stronger and more recognizable company presence across channels.
- -A clearer digital presence for clients evaluating the company
- -A more credible brand across campaigns and communication
- -A stronger visual presence for recruiting and employer appeal
System thinking
I treated the brand as a connected system rather than a collection of separate assets.
- -Website structure, UX, UI, and front-end details
- -Digital and traditional campaign materials
- -Flyers, posters, and event collateral
- -Shared visual rules that kept communication consistent as the company expanded
Result
The result is a body of work that helped Gunpowder look more established, communicate more clearly, and scale its presence as the business grew.
