What
we do

Strategy

Your brand oriented to a specific purpose.

We made communication strategies that allow the brands to be present in a contemporary way on the society. We take the artistic processes in order to create experiences and contents full of emotion, capables of calling the interest of the persons. We think that the brands must be present in different media, since art expositions thought video walls, and the way that the message is given must be specific for each one. We work with our own methodologies which involves design thinking, sicology and sociology.

Visual system

Coherent, beautiful and strategic graphics.

We think, choose and construct (design) graphic structures that allow us to express a brand message through a logo, a package, a product photograph or an exhibition pavilion. We do this by using our sensitivity for typography, an element that we believe is unique and specific to graphic design, combined with knowledge of the history of design of humanity and the understanding of symbolism and its importance in the construction of imaginaries.

Amelia Toro

Thanks to her strategic thinking and deep understanding of the brand, Arutza managed to renew our visual system and integrate it into every detail of the online boutique design and social media content, keeping the essence of Amelia Toro: timelessness. This new graphic universe became the starting point to establish a coherent and sustainable brand image over time. In addition, Arutza has become our main ally and advisor for our digital development and communications department, constantly providing us with tools and support when implementing visual identity in our projects.

AnaLur

Working with Arutza Studio in the rebranding of my jewelry brand was a very valuable experience. Through an emotional and sociological journey, I rescue the best of the brand's legacy and experience to give it value in the new construction of the essence and image, merging them into assets that are very consistent with the new corporate strategy and the current context. Very happy with the result, a job where empathy, love of detail and honesty prevail. Thank you
