Brand Tone

Analytical & In-depth, Thoughtful & Nuanced, Knowledgeable & Authoritative, Passionate & Enthusiastic, Approachable & Relatable, Slightly Witty/Humorous

Brand Values

• •Storytelling & Depth
• •Authenticity & Personal Expression
• •Quality & Craftsmanship
• •Critical Thinking & Understanding
• •Accessibility & Inclusivity (in tech design)

Best Practices

• •Prioritize Depth over Brevity (when appropriate): While concise copy is often key, don't shy away from longer-form content (like blog posts or video essays) that allows for thorough exploration of a topic, reflecting the analytical nature of the brand.
• •Ask "Why?": Frame content around understanding the underlying reasons and implications of tech developments, not just reporting on features. This aligns with the thoughtful and critical thinking values.
• •Inject Genuine Passion: When discussing topics David is enthusiastic about (e.g., photography, well-designed tech), let that genuine interest shine through in the language. Avoid overly corporate or sterile wording.
• •Maintain a Balance of Authority and Approachability: Use clear, intelligent language that demonstrates expertise, but avoid jargon where possible or explain it simply. The tone should be knowledgeable yet welcoming to a broad audience.
• •Show, Don't Just Tell, the Story: Instead of just stating a product is good, describe the experience of using it, the problems it solves, or the feelings it evokes, connecting to the "telling stories in every medium" value.
