Brand Identity

Fitness studio identity and website

An identity and website for an independent fitness studio — built to look as credible as the national chains while keeping the personality of a local business.

The brief

Competing with chains on a local budget

The studio was up against national gym chains with marketing budgets it couldn't match. Its members were loyal and its coaching was better, but none of that came across before someone walked through the door.

The website was the bigger problem — class information was scattered across social posts and there was no clear way to book a first session.

What we did

Strength in the details, not the budget

You can't outspend a national chain, but you can out-design one. We focused on the things that make a studio feel established: consistency, clarity and an easy first step.

An identity with real energy

The visual language was built to feel active and human rather than corporate — a deliberate contrast to the generic look of the chain gyms nearby.

Class information in one place

Everything about the timetable, the coaching and the pricing was consolidated onto the site, so prospective members stopped having to piece it together from social media.

A first booking that's simple

The route to booking a first session was reduced to a clear, short path — the single biggest opportunity for a studio trying to convert interest into a visit.

Built to run itself

The site was structured so the team can update timetables and add classes themselves, without needing a developer for routine changes.

The outcome

A studio that looks as good as it is

The brand now carries the same energy as the sessions themselves, and prospective members can find out what's on and book a first class without leaving the site.

  • An identity that competes visually with national chains
  • Class and pricing information consolidated in one place
  • A clear, short route to a first booking
  • A site the team can update without help
