The challenge

Kids’ brands default to soft pastels and precious mom blog aesthetics. Sonny Days needed the opposite: an outdoor adventure brand that happens to make clothes for little explorers, bold enough to stand next to real outdoor labels.

Step 1

The approach

A complete identity: the sun explorer mark, hard guardrails (no pastels, no soft pinks), navigation rules for every layout, and a voice that encourages movement. Delivered as a field guide the whole team can actually follow.

Step 2

How we got there

The sequence this project actually ran through.

  1. Discovery

    What the business actually sells, who signs off, and the words they already use. The identity has to survive the phone call, not just the pitch.

  2. Marks and territory

    Several directions explored, narrowed to one, then stress tested small: a favicon, a truck door, an email signature.

  3. The system

    Palette, type scale, spacing and usage rules written down, so the brand holds when someone else applies it.

  4. Applied

    The identity taken straight into the thing that has to earn: the site, the deck, the vehicle, the packaging.
