• WHAT'S IN A NAME?

    Everything begins with a backstory.
    A reason to believe that this crazy idea might just work! With over 30 years of experience in the branding industry,
    I am ready to bring this incredible and unique set of experiences
    to aid your business.

  • HIVE

    A place in which people are
    busily occupied.

    A group of individuals
    working together for a common goal.

  • PRINCIPLE

    A fundamental truth or proposition that serves as the foundation for a
    system of belief or behavior or for a chain of reasoning.

    A general scientific theorem or law that has numerous special applications across a wide field.

I BELIEVE IN…

“The power of a handshake and the collective human spirit to get things accomplished as a team.”

“The creative journey that builds brands, creates meaningful businesses and turns careers into friendships.”

“The brand ideas that stand the test of time—not just a decoration station based on the latest design trend.”

“Ideas that are grounded in consumer observations, brand and category histories—and the consumer need state.”


-DYFED “FRED” RICHARDS

SERVICES

I like to keep things simple, from services, to solutions, and pricing.

From developing brand and design strategies, to running internal innovation workshops, brand asset evaluations and keynote speeches.

All services are grounded in world-class design principles, and the fundamentals of brand and category conventions.
