CLIENT SPEAK


  • “With Lokusdesign, you get a great combination of deep human insights, strong strategic design capabilities, and a proactive, solution-oriented team of experts you can count on. Having them as your partner really helps you navigate business complexity while identifying and realizing potential opportunities through design for a strong impact. We partnered with them to reinvigorate the legacy combo-pack business through design. Together, we evolved a comprehensive system of service experience, packaging and POSM design optimized for the retail context. This new system has been very well received by our trade partners and consumers, and we look forward to it delivering a strong business dividend over time. As a leading brand in a late maturity/ decline market, you’ve got to think beyond competition to grow your business. And we are glad that our partnership with Lokusdesign helped us successfully achieve that.

  • Our brand needed a contemporary strategy to reflect the growing impact of our business and the current market realities. Lokusdesign’s team helped us distill it, articulate it, and transform it from strategy through execution. Their methodical approach to understanding our business and culture, rigorous application of the brand strategy framework, and attention to detail ensured our stakeholders understand not just ‘how’ to apply our Brand Code, but also ‘what’ our brand stands for, and ‘why’ it is expressed the way it is. Most of all, Lokusdesign’s culture aligns with our brand values of expertise and agility; and its team feels the same sense of ownership for our brand, the way we do. This shared ownership has been key to building a brand that we all feel proud to associate with!”

Their office has put up a well-coordinated team of professional designers. The members of the team showed eagerness to approach every component of the project in the right spirit of designers’ problem-solving process; whether it was design of the campus and the buildings within the campus and their interiors, or creating a total corporate identity of the Institute, or designing of all the promotional literature including the website. The Lokus Design team worked closely with me and my colleagues while participating in the task of evolving educational ethos and pedagogical methodology. It had indeed been a pleasant experience working with the Lokus Design team.”
