Branding Review from Eric Horton
Hello DesignRush community,I wanted to share my exceptional experience working with Sven at Igawa Design. Sven is a true professional.

Jonathan Brown Design Director at DGWB Advertising

Branding Review from Jonathan Brown
Igawa Design is one of the most contemporary and strategic thinking Brand and Design agencies in California. I've had the pleasure of working with Sven and his team on multiple programs and projects and every time Ive been struck by how relevant and unique the solutions and work are. Modern, fresh, dynamic and sophisticated, their work hits the mark every time. They are great partners and great people to work with.For Memorex, Sven was responsible for a complete re thinking of our clients core identity, repositioning it toward a new audience and mindset. This new direction was then applied to a complete range of consumer packing and point of sale, resulting in a fresh new face that stood out in a crowded and cluttered sector.
Matt Lyon President 7 CEO at HydraPak LLC
4.8★
Branding Review from Matt Lyon
HydraPak engaged Igawa to re-brand the company at a pivotal moment in our growth. With a surge of growth, we had a chance to re-brand the 15 year-old company and reintroduce it to the marketplace. Sven delivered an entirely new brand book that we used to reposition ourselves in the marketplace. As a young company, we used this as a blue print for our future projects and marketing relationships. The work was spot-on, nailing who we were and capturing it in a way that was compelling to others. We were so happy with the work, we also used Sven to re-brand our Bottle Bright and Polar Bottle acquisitions. I did not think that someone else could tell me something about my brand that I didn't already know, but Sven proved me wrong. I highly recommend Igawa.
