Introduction

The Eight Story Brand Identity Design Project provided a compelling opportunity to develop a visually captivating and cohesive brand identity for a unique company. The Eight Story aimed to be a platform that showcased stories of startup founders, entrepreneurs, and the entrepreneurship ecosystem, primarily from the eight states of Northeast India. With the vision to eventually expand and include content from other states across the country, The Eight Story sought to publish a wide range of news, articles, reports, video and audio podcasts, and other creative content on their platform.

Project Overview

The Brand Identity Design Project for The Eight Story aimed to create a visually captivating and cohesive brand identity that authentically represented the company’s mission and vision. As a platform dedicated to sharing the stories of startup founders, entrepreneurs, and the entrepreneurship ecosystem, The Eight Story focused primarily on the eight states of Northeast India: Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, and Tripura. The platform served as a catalyst for showcasing the entrepreneurial spirit and innovation emerging from these regions.

The project involved a meticulous process of understanding the core values, aspirations, and target audience of The Eight Story. Through comprehensive research and analysis, we aimed to capture the essence of the platform and its commitment to promoting entrepreneurship. This understanding laid the foundation for crafting a brand identity that would resonate with both the startup community and the wider audience interested in the dynamic entrepreneurial landscape of Northeast India.

Central to the brand identity design was the creation of a distinct and memorable logo. The logo represented The Eight Story’s mission to bring to light the narratives, successes, challenges, and inspiring journeys of startup founders and entrepreneurs. The visual identity system extended beyond the logo, encompassing typography, color palette, and graphic elements that would consistently convey the platform’s brand values and evoke a sense of authenticity, innovation, and connection.

The content publication aspect of the project played a crucial role in shaping the brand identity design. The Eight Story aimed to offer a diverse range of content formats, including news articles, reports, video and audio podcasts, and other creative materials. Considerations were made to ensure a consistent visual style that aligned with the brand identity, enhancing the user experience and establishing a recognizable aesthetic throughout the platform.

While the initial focus of The Eight Story was on the eight states of Northeast India, the project also took into account the company’s ambitious plans for expansion. The brand identity design was developed with scalability in mind, allowing for the seamless inclusion of content from other states across the country. The goal was to maintain a cohesive and adaptable design framework that could accommodate future growth while preserving the platform’s unique identity and narrative-driven approach.

By successfully creating a compelling brand identity for The Eight Story, this project sought to position the platform as a trusted and influential source for startup stories and entrepreneurship insights. The brand identity would serve as a visual representation of The Eight Story’s dedication to fostering a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem, encouraging collaboration, and inspiring aspiring entrepreneurs in Northeast India and beyond.
