FATHOM / Services / Branding

Branding

We are a platform engineering studio — brand identity is not our own craft. For projects that need it, we work with a dedicated graphic designer: logo, color palette, typography, and the guidelines document that keeps it consistent afterward. One point of contact, one invoice.

What this covers

01

Logo & Brand Identity

Logo design, color palette, typography, and a brand guidelines document — the reference your team (or ours) uses to keep everything consistent afterward. AED 3,500 as a Growth-track add-on, selectable in the Scope Estimator.

02

Full Brand Identity System

Logo, guidelines, print materials, and digital/social templates as one coherent system instead of separate pieces — for a launch or a full rebrand. AED 12,000 as an Enterprise-track add-on, selectable in the Scope Estimator.

03

Rebranding

For an existing business — the brief starts from what already exists: what to keep, what to change, and why. If we are also rebuilding your site, the frontend and the new identity ship together.

How we work

01

Brief

We gather your brand context, references, and constraints — the same intake we'd use for a build, adapted for identity work.

02

Concepts

Initial directions to react to, not a blank-page guess — narrowed down before full production starts.

03

Design & Iteration

Refinement rounds against your feedback, reviewed by Fathom before it reaches you — one point of contact throughout.

04

Handoff

Final logo files and the guidelines document delivered to you — yours to use anywhere, no ongoing dependency on us.

Logo, brand guidelines, and rebranding — delivered through a dedicated designer, briefed and billed through Fathom.

Why FATHOM

One invoice, one point of contact

You do not manage a separate freelancer relationship — Fathom briefs, reviews, and bills the work, the same way we handle every subcontracted specialist.

A real handoff document, not just a logo file

Every identity package includes brand guidelines — color codes, typography rules, usage do-and-don't — so consistency does not depend on someone remembering the original intent.

Priced transparently, like everything else here

Both packages are selectable directly in the Scope Estimator alongside your website build — not a separate "request a quote" process.

DIY logo tools vs. a professionally designed identity

Free and low-cost logo generators produce something usable in minutes, and for a genuinely early-stage side project, that can be the right call — spending AED 3,500 on branding before you have validated the business is not always sensible. The gap shows up once you need the logo to work across a website, packaging, social profiles, and print at once: generated logos are rarely built with the vector precision, color system, and usage guidelines that keep a brand consistent as it scales. If your business already has customers and a website in progress, professionally designed identity work tends to pay for itself the first time you do not have to redesign it.

Frequently asked questions

Who actually does the branding work?

A dedicated graphic designer we work with regularly — not a general-purpose freelancer marketplace. Fathom briefs the work, reviews it, and is your single point of contact and invoice.

How much does branding cost?

AED 3,500 for a logo and brand guidelines on the Growth track, or AED 12,000 for a full identity system (logo, guidelines, print, and digital templates) on Enterprise — both selectable directly in the Scope Estimator, alongside your website build.

Do you take on rebranding for an existing business?

Yes — the process is the same as a new identity, but the brief starts from what already exists: what to keep, what to change, and why. If we are also rebuilding your site, the frontend and the new identity ship together instead of the site lagging behind a rebrand.

How long does branding work take?

A logo and guidelines package typically takes 1–2 weeks; a full identity system runs longer depending on how many touchpoints are in scope. We confirm a specific timeline once we know what you need.
