Since the dawn of day, stories have been shared and passed along between people to create a sense of meaning and belonging. People remember great stories. Branding is both an idea and an image that people have of a product, service, or company.
Design Storytelling affects your audience by tying the idea and image together—in a visceral way. In this morning booster, we share our views on how to create a visual concept where everything blends together and share cases where the identity design is telling a unique story about the brand it is a visual representation of.

This symbol represents time:
The time it takes for a seed to
be planted and for change to
spread through generations.
This symbol represents the
voice of the children. For far
too long, they have been
silenced but we enable them to
speak up for themselves
This symbol represents that
though we are fighting an
uphill battle, we’ll keep climb-
ing, one step at a time, until we
reach our goal.
70. Love Passion Hope Involvement
This symbol represents love
and compassion which is at
the heart of everything we do

are fighters. We won’t be
silenced. We will keep
addressing the issues and
speaking up about children’s
rights until innocent children
are no longer accused of being
witches.
This symbol represents a new
day. A new beginning. No
matter how hard today is, the
sun will rise again tomorrow.

lies ahead.

Children’s Parliament at Land

and responsibility.

knowledge. If you look
closely, you will see four
books creating a stream of
knowledge. For a true wave
of change to form, all it takes
is a little, persistent stream of
new ideas.
This symbol represents
education and that the pen is
mightier than the sword.
Because with education comes
knowledge and by spreading
knowledge, we can get rid of
superstitions.
This symbol represents
enlightenment which is the key
to break hurtful superstitions.
We need to speak up (!) and
provide information (i) in order
to enlighten superstitious
communities.
