We build brands as business assets.
Design is where a brand becomes visible. Strategy is where it becomes valuable.
About
The studio
Storm® is a global strategic brand studio.
Founded in Canada in 2018, built on 25+ years of strategic and creative practice, and headquartered in Riyadh with studios in Toronto and Dubai.
We work directly with leadership teams. The engagement starts with the position, the market and the commercial reality, and only then moves into identity, experience and digital. Design is the outcome, not the starting point.
350+ brands, across 17+ markets. 90% of the organizations we have built for are still with us.
25+ Years of practice

Why Storm®
Three things that hold across every engagement.
-
Strategy leads.The position is agreed before the design begins, so approvals are grounded in strategy rather than preference.
-
One group, end to end.The brand is defined and activated by the same group, so nothing is lost between the strategy and the live site.
-
Senior hands only.The people in the room are the people doing the work, and the people accountable after handover.
Three studios.
Three studios.
Three locations, one team. Work moves between them without changing hands.
