Our point of view is that brands can achieve this with stories and brand expressions that add value and make meaningful connections. Putting out good creative concepts and authentic execution has never been more important. In other words: design matters more than ever. But how do you recognise ‘good’ or ‘great’ design that stands the test of time and moves people?
Good design moves people
‘Good’ is a relative understanding. It is subject to cultural behaviour, personal experiences and trends. But we all want what’s good in our opinion. And for most of us, this is no different in creative (digital) work as we are always striving to get the best results, develop a defying concept and create that next jaw-dropping design. As a result, we naturally prefer to work with clients who strive for that same level of greatness. But how do we define what is ‘good’, let alone great, moving, inspiring or lasting? Well, we do this by rationalising our design intentions.
“How do we define what is good design? What characteristics can we identify and how do we put them into practice?”
Use a creative framework
By setting up a creative framework, we define the keys to produce inspiring, resonant work and — most importantly — add real value to a brand's audience. It is therefore more than just an aspirational goal. A creative framework is like a compass. It will guide work, giving it an authentic and distinctive signature, and help steer creatives towards the right quality level and, hopefully, some unexpected outcomes.
At iO, we believe that creativity affects and inspires audiences. It influences their emotions and actions. For Verno, iO instilled the passion for artisan framing with ‘Framed with love’, allowing the brand to express its passion and craftsmanship as well as converting people into loyal customers. Another example: with Largo’s website, we crafted an innovative approach to the travel industry by focusing on a luxurious personal experience through storytelling, brand expression, and conversion.
5 creative principles that lead to great work
1. Audience — Create for context
A creative idea or a design style is more significant and more powerful if it has an emotional connection or a certain relevance to what is happening in people’s lives. The things we make and design shape the look and feel of every single customer’s journey. So it’s a designer’s duty to make sure that the world they create is aligned with the expectations, preferences, and lives of its users.
2. Commitment — Drive value
The best part about being in a strategic and creative position is that you are in the confluence of art and commerce. In a business challenge, you must find a balance between creativity and business acumen. The work is based on insights, needs and questions that are specific to the end-user and the business objectives of our clients.
3. Execution — Guard authenticity and artistry
In these times of information overload, it is important to be distinctive and emphasise the recognisability of a brand experience. Integrating artistry into our work is necessary to guarantee an authentic experience of our products. It is our weapon against sameness and the marginalisation of design.
4. Motivation — Try to break some rules
Your work stands a better chance of getting noticed if you are able to break with conventions. Not with contempt, but by thoughtfully and critically reassessing conventions of the industries we work in. When we manage to break a rule, we can force a brand's notability.
5. Ethics — Don’t do it by yourself
Creativity often happens in teams, as everyone in their own right is creative. People — be it designers, strategists, copywriters or janitors — inspire each other and come up with different insights and perspectives. They keep each other accountable and support each other. This ultimately results in ideas that no one could have created on their own.
Does your brand deserve the stage?
Has your brand a lot to offer and is it time the world notices it? At iO, we’re here to supply you with research, brand strategies, experience building and relationship engagement. Our experts will shine a light on your brand and yours truly.
A compass for great design
While the creative principles above don’t always have to be apparent to create the best work, good digital design cannot exist without incorporating them to some extent. Once you have defined your philosophy, you can start using it as a compass for good design. It can even guide you in finding the star players that will help you execute on it. In any case, a creative framework will help guide you to your next level of beautiful and relevant creative work.
Having a creative framework may help steer your work, services, products and business towards greater heights. But applying it, motivating and inspiring the people who execute on it should not be overlooked. Creating an environment of excellence and the right creative mentality is essential to produce that next amazing piece of work.

Flawless content migrations
Do you want to rebrand your organisation? Is an acquisition or merger imminent? Or do you want to improve your customer experience, and does this require an organisational change?

Far too often, a content migration is nothing more than the last thing on the list, because it’s the technology that requires a lot of attention and budget, isn’t it? How complex can it be to lift and shift the content from the old system to the new?Lire la suiteWhite paper

2024: the next step for analytics and tracking in a 'privacy first' world
You may not have noticed, but a lot has changed in terms of analytics and tracking over the past five years. This is partly because we've already grown accustomed to many changes, and partly because their impact has come very gradually. Half a decade ago, no one knew of the existence of a cookie banner, a year later everyone thought they could never get used to it, and today we don't know any better. We've made serious strides in terms of data regulation, and perhaps the biggest steps are yet to come in 2024.Lire la suiteBlog
2023: a year in an era of change
Does the name Leonhard Huizinga still ring a bell for anyone? Once a popular Dutch writer, now forgotten. He made his debut in 1936 with the book 'De Gestroomlijnde Wereld'. Already a wanderer at a young age, Huizinga's book opened an unknown world to many readers. An exotic world, which seemed to be getting smaller and smaller, because it was more accessible by car, train, boat, and airplane. Faster, more comfortable and with more and more streamlining — quite literally. Curious, boundless, full of wonder. Not realising, as early as 1936, that over that same world lay the shadows of tomorrow.Lire la suiteBlog
