Why brands need your help:
- How can we make them better??

What is a brand?
A logo? An identity??

A brand is standing for something, not always about the products, and often big ideologies.
For example: IKEA democratises design so that everyone can afford something that's well designed.

Brands which are wonderful experiences make our lives better!
- The smaller touches are what make them worth while.

Rory Sutherland - TED Talks.
- Any brand can be the cheapest. It's about having something new and different to make customers loyal to you.

Design is an opportunity to make a difference!

BRIEF - The Ministry of Wonderful
