We begin by
Windowgazing.

Window Gazing

Window Gazing

Gazing for insights, aisle-seat notions, interpret brand soul, etc.

Aisle-seat Notion

Aisle-seat Notion

Logic that holds us back. We challenge these with new insights aka window sights.

Contagious Ideas

Contagious Ideas

These are ideas that will break at least one key aisle-seat 
notion. Storyable, co-creatable and social currency.

Our Brand Vision

Our Brand Vision

A contagious idea always lives between an aisle-seat notion and a powerful brand vision.

The 9S Model

Our Brand Design practice is built on Windowseat’s proprietary 
9S Model. Our Model ladders your brand from Soul through nine distinct stages, all the way to Society.

At each ‘S’, we sharpen a different dimension of your brand, so by the end you don’t just have a logo - you have a clear direction for how your company should look and feel.

You’ll see our vision for your brand across every medium. You’ll see your own business in a completely different light.

We start with brand diagnostics

This is where everything starts. Before we design anything, we diagnose.

Stakeholder interviews

Stakeholder interviews

We sit down with founders, leaders and key team members to uncover deep–rooted beliefs, origin stories, internal culture and unspoken ambitions. This is where we understand not just what you do, but the 'why' of your business

Competitive & category analysis

Competitive & category analysis

Next, we map the landscape you play in – direct competitors, adjacent categories and reference brands. We identify codes everyone follows, spaces no one owns, and opportunities to stand out instead of blend in.

Consumer research

Consumer research

Finally, we listen to the people who matter most – your current and potential customers. Through conversations, surveys or observational research, we explore how they see you today, what they expect from your category, and what will genuinely move them.

Together, these Diagnostics give us a clear, evidence–based picture of your brand’s reality. Everything that follows positioning, expression and experience is built on this foundation.

Brand visioneering workshop. We call it Windowgazing.

The next step is our Brand Visioneering Workshop – a fast, collaborative session where your brand’s vision and its real-world manifestation are co-created by key client stakeholders and our core strategy–creative team.


In a focused workshop, we use structured tools and exercises to clarify your business goals, define what the brand should stand for, and imagine how it will show up across platforms – identity, communication, digital, space and more.

The outcomes of this session become the north star for your Brand Expression, guiding every design, word and experience that follows. Watch a recent Visioneering workshop we led for a jewellery brand.
