Brand Tone

Aspirational, minimalist, and confident. The language is clean, direct, and thoughtful, avoiding hyperbole and aggressive sales tactics. It's welcoming yet exclusive, making customers feel like they are part of a curated, in-the-know community. Described as minimalist, aspirational, confident, artistic, and inclusive.

Brand Values

• •Creativity & Collaboration
• •Intentional Living
• •Quality over Quantity
• •Community
• •Modern Heritage

Best Practices

• •Create a "Words We Use" Guide: Develop an internal list of on-brand words (e.g., "intentional," "curated," "ritual," "considered," "community") and words to avoid (e.g., "cheap," "deal," "hurry," "buy now," "limited time only"). This ensures everyone writing for the brand uses a shared vocabulary.
• •Prioritize "We" and "Our Community": Frame communications from a collective perspective. Use "we" to talk about the brand's process and "our community" when referring to customers. This reinforces the core value of an inclusive society.
• •Speak with Calm Confidence: Avoid exclamation points, excessive emojis, and urgent, sales-driven language. The copy should be assured and calm, letting the quality of the product and the strength of the brand speak for itself.
• •Tell the Story Behind the Product: Every product description, social media post, and email should have a narrative element. Who designed it? What was the inspiration? How is it made? This elevates products from mere items to pieces with a story, aligning with the brand's artistic and quality-focused values.
• •Maintain Visual and Textual Harmony: The clean, minimalist aesthetic of the brand's visuals must be mirrored in the copy. Use ample white space, concise sentences, and elegant typography in all written materials, from the website to email newsletters, to create a cohesive and immersive brand experience.

Social Perception

Public perception is of a niche, high-quality, and aesthetically-driven brand. Customers view it as a source for unique, well-designed products, feeling part of an exclusive club. The general public may see it as an aspirational, slightly premium brand, described as "cool" and "sophisticated." Potential challenge: the minimalist and confident tone could be perceived as aloof or expensive.
