How to successfully relaunch your brand with a new corporate design.

A relaunch is more than a new logo. It clarifies who you are, turns strategy into a living design system and makes your brand relevant, recognisable and trusted again.

Successful relaunches follow a clear sequence: diagnose the status quo, sharpen positioning and messaging, then translate them into a consistent visual identity – logo, colour, typography, layout, motion and imagery. We align leadership early, run fast validation loops and prepare the rollout with guidelines, templates and training so the new brand lands across every touchpoint. With echd you get strategy and creation under one roof. Our approach reduces risk (pilot launches, A/B and pre-tests), speeds up adoption inside the company and creates a design system that scales from packaging and print to website, social and sales. The result: more clarity, stronger recognition and a brand that audiences – and teams – stand behind.
