Branding Agency in Bristol
Brand identities designed and developed in Bristol, from first logo sketch to the full brand book.
A creative branding agency Bristol businesses trust
YZ DESIGNS has been developing brands since 1996, for everyone from one-van tradespeople to the University of the West of England. As a small Bristol branding agency we handle the whole job in-house: logo design, colour and typography, tone of voice, brand guidelines, and all the design work that carries the brand into the world.
We can start from a blank page, or take the brand you have and make it consistent, credible and usable everywhere it appears.
What your brand says before you say a word
Ask yourself: what do people think of my company before they have spoken to anyone in it? Your brand answers that question every day, on your van, your website, your invoices and your social profiles.
We cannot answer your phones for you, but we can make sure every visual impression is the right one. That is what thirty years of design experience buys you.
Brand books and guidelines
We write and design brand guidelines that make your rules easy to follow, so staff and outside agencies use the right logo, colours and type every time. We designed the brand book for UWE Bristol, so yours is in practised hands.
Consistency saves money
No more stretched logos, off-brand adverts or reprinted stationery. A clear brand book means every supplier gets it right first time.
Brand development, step by step
We start with your story, your customers and your competitors, then develop the identity in stages you approve: concepts, refinement, final artwork, guidelines. You will see everything before it is finalised, and you own the results outright.

Branding questions, answered
What is the difference between a logo and a brand?
The logo is the badge; the brand is everything the badge stands on: colours, type, tone, imagery and the rules that hold them together. A logo design project can grow into a full brand identity whenever you are ready.
What does a branding project include?
Typically: research and concepts, logo and identity design, colour and typography choices, and a brand guidelines document. Larger projects add stationery, templates, signage and a website that carries the new brand.
How much does branding cost in Bristol?
It scales with scope, from a logo-and-basics package for a start-up to a full identity with guidelines. Tell us where your business is heading and we will quote a fixed price within one working day: request a free quote.
