What
we do:

Brand Strategy

We blend research, analytics, and creativity to gain a deep understanding of your business and your customers insights and unmet needs - the soil on which brands are born. Brand strategy is where your long-term journey begins, it is the core element that holds everything together.

Brand consultancy

We are experts in brand strategy, dedicated to business growth. For 15 years, our strategic insights have strengthened brands across industries. Companies rely on our consultancy to compete powerfully in their respective markets. We provide advisory services focused on developing impactful brand strategy and identity.

Genuine design starts with a compelling brand strategy, but it often comes alive with creative intuition. We combine strategy with extraordinary visuals and copy to create meaningful and unforgettable brand identities, systems and experiences that evolve with your customers' changing needs.

Brand identity

How do we do this?

Customers rarely buy what the business thinks it sells him. Many brands don't actually know what they're selling and getting to the core purpose of your brand means understanding the core driver of your customer's behaviour. No business is the same, consequently no brand is the same, which means every brand needs to be uniquely crafted based on that deep true insight.

Due to our unique ability to find key, down-to-earth insights, we at TARNOVSKI Branding Studio aim to be your reliable partner that can help you propel your brands to leading positions.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING?

Tarnovski Branding Studio under-promised and over-delivered. They helped me develop a strong brand strategy. With Tarnovski I was able to understand which is my share of the market and how to become a leader in it. I was also pleased with the results of the visual identity work they have done with my brand. It stands out from the crowd in terms of identity and quality.

I would like to express my appreciation for the long-term collaboration between our company and Tarnovski Branding Studio. We chose to partner with their agency during a complicated time for us, when we had an urgent need for a well-defined brand strategy and subsequent balanced market positioning. Thanks to the unquestionable professionalism of Tarnovski team, their tremendous effort, and the outstanding quality of the provided services, our company managed to firmly secure the position of leader in the Republic of Moldova wine industry and stand out internationally. With special regard and gratitude, we highly recommend the services of Tarnovski Branding Studio for efficiently streamlining, enhancing, and ensuring the continuous progress of your projects!

Adrian Trofim

CEO @ Castel MIMI

Truly professional. I was impressed by the ease of collaboration. They listened attentively each time to understand what we wanted, providing strong arguments even when it did not align with our initial thoughts. They took into account the specific nature of the brand, owner, and team. I felt they created a product not just for the present, but for the future, which inspired and moved the team emotionally.

Corneliu Său

Founder @ TANDEM Home

I had the privilege of collaborating with the Tarnovski team on several projects, and I can say with all sincerity that they are the most professional and talented specialists I've ever had the honor to work with. Their unique approach to building brands not only enlightened me regarding the true essence and message I want to convey, but also unearthed meanings and values I hadn't even imagined I possessed. Their approach, deeply rooted in philosophy and psychology, is not just impressive but transformative. Victoria and Andrei contribute in such a way that they reflect the genuine values and principles of the business, highlighting aspects that many of us, as clients, might overlook. I had absolute trust in their expertise, and the two times we started a project from scratch, the results were astonishing.

Alina Taranov
