Best Practices

• •Anchor in Nature: Consistently use imagery, metaphors, and descriptive language drawn from the natural world (e.g., "earth's artistry," "wild textures," "ocean's strength," "forest's resilience").
• •Emphasize Craftsmanship & Origin: Regularly mention "handcrafted," "Balinese artisans," "original design," and the story of the brand's Bali roots to reinforce authenticity and quality.
• •Speak to the Masculine Journey: Use language that resonates with concepts of strength, individuality, authenticity, and a refined (but not overly formal) sense of style. The name "Ikku" (to go forward) can be a recurring motif.
• •Maintain a Refined yet Passionate Voice: Avoid overly casual slang, but don't be afraid to inject passion and a sense of wonder, especially when talking about inspirations and the crafting process.
• •Develop a Core Lexicon: Create a list of brand-aligned keywords and phrases (e.g., "authentic," "original," "nature-inspired," "handcrafted," "refined," "Bali," "silver," "forward," "harmony") and use them consistently across all communications.

Social Perception

Niche Appeal, Association with Quality Craftsmanship, Appreciation for Unique Designs, International Reach (Potentially Limited but Growing)
