1.0 Discovery
The first phase of the project is discovery, including industry research, competitor research, company research, and user behaviour research.
During this phase, we run a couple of workshops with the client to gather more information about the company, created a questionnaire, and used a SWOT analysis. For user research, we create a user survey and run it on Google Survey, at the end made three user personas.
The competitor research is around affordable modular storage brands as that will be the first product of Artihood. Focusing on the eight most popular modular storage brands, I studied their brand value, massaging, look and feel, and summarized their features. In addition, I also did case studies on the success of DTC brands, to learn their brand stories and marketing strategy.

The logo is a simple wordmark of the brand name - the first letter “A” is used as the brandmark. The whole wordmark is modern and clean with small details on each letter.
In the brandmark, the letter “A” is abstracted into a dot and a folded line. The dot can be interpreted as a nailhead, a laser focus on user needs, or a drop of emotion. The folded line can be interpreted as thin iron or wood pieces used in our products, or the initial scribbling of ideas. Together, they showcase the fundamental principle of Artihood - customer-centric and curious to explore.
