For me, distilling brands to its most essential form is the starting point of building a great identity. Taking the time to understand the business objectives and what the new identity/branding/logo/website needs to achieve is essential. This research material can range from broad, high-level objectives through to a specific type of content, or specific functionality that your users will need.
​
The mission is to define the "purpose" of your brand, and to convey it into a wider and straightforward vocabulary: the visual. This is what will make your message understood immediately, and universally.
