Project Description
We worked with Obagi Medical to evolve their brand identity—refining the logo, building flexible design systems, and helping the brand communicate more clearly in a modern, clinical, and competitive market.
The Challenge
Obagi had a strong reputation in the medical skincare world but lacked a cohesive and contemporary brand presence. Our challenge was to retain its clinical trust while introducing clarity, flexibility, and a confident visual tone across all touchpoints.
The idea
We built on Obagi’s legacy by refining its typographic identity, introducing a dynamic square device to anchor brand elements, and creating a system that adapts easily across packaging, digital, and print. Every decision was rooted in clarity and modernity.
In partnership with Piers North and Rowan Honeysett-Williams
