#f1creativeplus
Your brand should cover what your org stands for, your audience, and your message.
Creative and User Experience Designers rely on an understanding of the brand in order to do their work.
User Experience brings a focus on audience and purpose, which pairs nicely with creative.
Defining the audience journey together helps us get on the same page early and design better products.
Key Takeaways
Your brand is more than a logo.
The importance of branding.
Remember who you’re designing for.
Define the audience journey together.
