Barbershop, Calgary
AABlendz Studio
Identity, Print, And The Booking Flow
A barbershop with a look in the owner’s head and nothing on paper. It came back gold and black, across print, signage and the booking flow.
AABlendz Studio is a barbershop. Wise Media took the owner’s ideas and built the brand around a clean gold and black theme, locking in the look and feel of the shop.
What Was Built
- The brand identity. A clean gold and black theme, chosen to fit the room rather than a trend.
- A word mark, an icon mark and a signature mark. Three lockups, so the brand works on a sign, an avatar and a shopfront.
- Grand opening flyer. The one that had to do a job on a specific day.
- Hiring flyer for barbers. Recruiting is marketing, and it looks like the brand now.
- Giveaway flyers. Built to be reused rather than redrawn every promotion.
- Graphics for the booking system. So the brand does not stop at the front door of the software.
- The business card. Still the thing that leaves the chair in someone’s pocket.
