XStudioz — Independent brand design studio

Brand manual — first edition

A logo is a mark. A brand is a promise. We design both.

XStudioz is an independent studio for founders who take their brand seriously. Logos, identities, and the systems that carry them — designed properly, wherever you are building.

Sec. 01 — The Mark

Fig. 01 — Primary mark, construction 1:1

Everything here is built from this mark.

The 45° cuts, the rounded terminals, the notch — the geometry of our X sets the rules for every line, arrow, and movement on this page. That is how we build brands: one system, drawn once, applied everywhere.

  • TerminalsRounded, outside only
  • Geometry45° construction
  • SignatureThe notch — one deliberate break
  • ColorSignal gradient, #E634BE → #38016C

Sec. 02 — The Studio

Small on purpose. Serious by default.

When you order from XStudioz, you work with the people who actually draw. No account managers, no hand-offs, no templates dressed up as design. Every brief is read, questioned, and answered with work we are prepared to defend.

We keep the studio deliberately small so that the standard stays deliberately high — the same process, the same care, whether it is a single mark or a full identity system.

Sec. 04 — The Archive

This page is the studio. The proof lives next door.

We keep this page quiet and the archive loud. Logofolio, brand identities, social kits, stationery — the full body of work lives at the portfolio, curated and current.

Sec. 05 — The Process

The process

  1. 01

    Brief

    Tell us what you’re building. We ask questions until we understand it as well as you do.

  2. 02

    Directions

    Distinct concepts, each with a point of view — presented in context, not as a contact sheet.

  3. 03

    Refinement

    Focused rounds of revision until the mark sits exactly right. You’ll always know what changed and why.

  4. 04

    Delivery

    Vector masters, print-ready files, and web exports — packaged, named sensibly, and explained in plain language.

Sec. 06 — The Brief

Every brand here started as an email.

Tell us what you’re building — the name, the audience, the ambition. We read every brief ourselves and reply with how we’d approach it, what it costs, and when you’ll have it. No forms, no middlemen. Just write.
