BRANDY DESIGN, established in 2001, specializes in creating corporate, brand and product identity. Thanks to our extensive advertising and marketing experience, we offer modern design solutions which can increase the effectiveness of a product and radically change how a brand is perceived by consumers, thereby having a direct, positive impact on sales.
The spectacular success of the products that we have worked on has convinced us that that a skillful fusion of communication strategy and intelligent design is a highly effective marketing approach.
We take an active part in the dissemination of good design practices in Poland, whether it be through our regular contributions to a large number of trade magazines/publications, our lectures at the BCC and at the Warsaw Fine Arts Academy (ASP), or our participation in STGU projects and the Brand Design Club.
Brandy Design core group consists of seven creative and skilled proffesionals, as well as several committed and experienced contractors.
