How do you tell the story of a complex industry that spans three counties and includes everyone from start-up entrepreneurs to healthcare systems to world-class academic and scientific research institutions? To tell this story, Lansing Economic Area Partnership | LEAP engaged BasedOn with the challenge to bring the power of brand to this region’s distinctive and growing industry sector. Our team translated the region's assets, beliefs and unequalled place in the state into a dynamic system including look, language and name for the region to use in attracting new investment, business and talent. #michiganshealthcore #accelerateideas #lifesciencetechnology #brandidentity #identitydesign

This 100-year old Detroit organization recently took a bold step with our studio, one we at BasedOn could definitely relate to: they changed their name to Boldli! With renewed energy and an exceptional story to tell, Boldli works with young people of diverse abilities throughout Detroit and across the state. #Boldli #EverydayExceptional #brandidentity #identitydesign

It’s not often that an entire city block of historic buildings has a new chance at life, so when Olympia Development reached out to BasedOn to help shape the block’s next chapter, we were all in. Our team dove into the buildings’ histories as well as renovation plans for the seven buildings to function together as a mixed-income apartment community. Anchoring the south end of the Cass Corridor and a key corner in The District Detroit, we’re excited to see these buildings come back to life!

Additionally, our team developed signature identities for food and beverage offerings, crafted membership recruitment / retention campaigns that enabled the DAC to exceed membership targets and served as a reliable thought partner on all things brand.
