Moat, a smart-lock company, came to us with a tangle of products, sub-brands, and messaging that needed clarity. They also faced the classic problem most lock companies face: locks just aren’t exciting. Instead of trying to make them look techy, we went the opposite direction and dropped the whole brand into a medieval world. Suddenly protection, safety, and security had personality. We simplified the architecture, built a single coherent identity, and created a brand universe that no competitor in the space was even attempting. The result was a category-breaking identity that made Moat impossible to ignore.
