Project overview

KONA is a full-cycle real estate development company operating in a highly competitive local market, where trust, visibility, and brand consistency directly affect sales velocity and customer confidence.

I've worked with KONA as a full-time graphic designer for two years. My main focus was designing outdoor advertisements, packaging, and print materials for clients and partners, as well as spatial design, social media banners, and event photography.

Building trust, brick by brick

After completing a major brand redesign with an external agency, KONA needed an experienced graphic designer to carry the transformation forward: ensuring long-term cohesive brand presence across all client and partner touchpoints.

That’s where I came in.

Role & Responsibility

I worked with a freshly produced brand identity, focusing on its practical application and day-to-day development across marketing and communication channels. My responsibility was not to redesign the brand, but to adapt, extend, and maintain it in real production conditions.

My work covered a wide range of marketing and communication tasks, including outdoor advertising, social media visuals, printed materials (business cards, posters, brochures), packaging design for clients and partners materials, branded merchandise, and the spatial design for company events.

Design Challenges

The main challenge was translating a predefined visual system into diverse formats without losing consistency or clarity. Each asset was designed with its context in mind — visibility in urban environments, readability at different scales, fast production cycles, and alignment with marketing goals.

Working inside an existing identity required careful control of typography, color usage, composition, and hierarchy. Over time, this process helped refine how the system behaves in real marketing scenarios, making it more flexible and reliable for repeated use.

A significant part of my work was focused on print and physical production, where design decisions had direct real-world consequences. Many assets were created for large-format printing, packaging, and branded materials, requiring careful consideration of color reproduction, materials, finishes, and viewing conditions.

Working with physical media meant accounting for technical limitations, production tolerances, and small things like brand color accuracy across different materials. Unlike digital design, these decisions left little room for error and required a high level of precision and attention to detail.

This experience strengthened my understanding of production-driven design — where visual decisions must align not only with brand guidelines and business goals, but also with manufacturing processes, timelines, and cost considerations.
