In summary
Repositioning Altis with a people-centred brand identity that reflects its values, culture and market ambition.
Altis is a leading information management consultancy operating across Australia, New Zealand and the UK. While highly regarded for its work, the brand had become diluted over time, no longer clearly expressing the values, principles and culture that underpinned the business. As Altis entered a new phase of growth, there was a clear need to re-energise its communications, sharpen its positioning and engage new audiences with greater clarity and confidence.
Altis engaged us to help uncover and articulate its points of difference, define an ownable space in the market, and translate its people-first philosophy into a cohesive and compelling brand identity. Central to this was a desire to move beyond functional messaging and demonstrate how the quality of relationships within the business directly shapes the outcomes delivered to clients.
To inform the creative direction, we undertook a comprehensive discovery and review process, gathering insight from across the organisation to understand culture, behaviours and ambition. A defining insight emerged: a happy and engaged team leads to happy, loyal clients — creating success for everyone. This principle became the strategic backbone of the new brand, guiding both narrative and visual expression.
The resulting identity elevates Altis’ human approach, celebrating connection, collaboration and positive momentum. It reframes the brand around relationships and shared journeys, while providing a flexible system capable of supporting the consultancy’s ongoing growth across markets.
Process:
- Understanding the business and ambition: Conducted strategic reviews and stakeholder engagement to clarify Altis’ values, culture and future direction.
- Defining an ownable positioning: Identified and articulated Altis’ key points of difference, with a focus on people, relationships and outcomes.
- Developing the brand idea: Established a central brand concept grounded in the insight that engaged teams create stronger client relationships and better results.
- Designing the identity system: Created a distinctive visual language that expresses connection and positivity, including the development of a bespoke typeface.
- Extending the brand expression: Built a flexible identity system designed to work consistently across touchpoints, markets and communications.
Outcome:
- A refreshed brand identity that clearly expresses Altis’ values, culture and people-centred approach.
- A distinctive, ownable position in the information management sector.
- A cohesive visual language that brings warmth, energy and clarity to the brand.
- A bespoke typeface and supporting assets that reinforce Altis’ uniqueness.
- A confident, engaging brand platform designed to support growth and audience engagement across regions.
