— A POSITION

We believe a brand that cannot be drawn in a single mark on a single sheet is not yet a brand. It is a list of meetings.

1. Begin with the position. Drawing follows.

2. Reduce. Reduce. Reduce again. The fourth pass is usually where the work starts.

3. Defend the mark in writing. If the rationale takes more than a page, the mark is wrong.

4. A grid is not a constraint. It is the place where the work happens.

5. The first colour is black. The second colour is the absence of black. The third — only when earned.
