Think About Psychology
Stimulate the Senses
Take creativity to the next level by using visuals that appeal to the sense. Use smells, sounds, and even tastes to create a memorable experience when potential customers visit your store or website. Incorporate textures throughout your design and packaging to show your customers that you are giving them a truly unique experience.
By incorporating these elements into your brand, you can create an exciting, immersive experience for your customers that makes them take notice of your business.
3) Crafting a Brand Aesthetic: Surrounding Yourself with Beauty
Crafting a brand aesthetic is one of the first steps in telling your story as a business. It’s all about surrounding yourself with beauty and thoughtfully picking your brand’s visuals.
A great brand aesthetic sets you apart and speaks to your audience on an emotional level. It’s an opportunity to express your personality and the values your business stands for, as well as create a consistent look across all channels.
Start by assessing where you are. Run a quick audit of your brand’s visuals and see which ones you like, and which ones need to be tossed. Invest time in researching the visuals that draw you in and why you think that is.
Walk on the creative side. While it is important to create brand guidelines, don’t stick to them for every single piece of content you make. Push yourself to come up with new ideas and create new visuals that have never been explored before.
Find inspiration in unexpected places. Keep your eyes open for visuals that evoke emotion, like a color palette, abstract art, landscapes, patterns and more. Bring in visuals from various fields to create something fresh and inspiring.
Choose your attitude. Consider the emotions you want to project and how your visuals should represent them. Keep a consistent, balanced view between functionality and beauty, and you’ll be sure to have a successful brand aesthetic.
4) The Power of Music: How Music Shapes the Creative Process
Music is well known to be powerful in many ways, but its impact on the creative process is often forgotten. Music has the ability to set the tone, ignite creativity and even evoke emotions in creative minds.
1) Mood Setting
Music can be used to evoke a particular atmosphere, setting the mood for creativity. It can influence the emotions of the artist, allowing them to stimulate their creative juices. From peaceful spa tunes to energizing upbeat music, different songs have the power to create a variety of different feelings.
2) Igniting Creativity
Creative people often use music to help spark their ideas. Different rhythms and sounds can help to bring new ideas to the table and put those ideas into motion. Music encourages people to come up with unique and abstract concepts, giving them the freedom to explore a different kind of creativity.
3) Reaching New Levels of Creativity
The combination of music and creative activities has been found to be a great way to reach new levels of creativity. By having a soundtrack to accompany the work, the artist becomes more immersed in the creative process. This makes complex tasks easier to navigate as stimulating beats offer a journey. Additionally, a person’s concentration is strengthened when accompanied by music, leading to better results and more successful projects.
Whether you’re a musician, artist, or designer, the power of music to shape your creative process is indisputable. Experiment with different music styles, and see how your creative flow transcends the new boundaries!
