Beyond the Logo: How Patrick Osei Uses Storytelling and Strategy to Build Brands

Over three and a half years working professionally as a Brand Designer at StarTech Multimedia Ltd in Ghana, Osei developed experience across logo design, visual identity, packaging, promotional materials, flyers and marketing communication.

His approach is centred on understanding the problem before developing the visual solution andensuring that individual design elements work together as part of a recognisable identity.

Rather than reducing African design to a single visual aesthetic, Osei’s approach suggests a more contemporary understanding of cultural influence one in which personal and cultural experience informs the designer’s perspective without necessarily determining the final visual language.
