Two practices. Deep, cross-domain expertise. Every engagement is designed to deliver measurable transformation – in your business performance or in the impact your institution creates.
Design is a strategic business capability that enables transformation, accelerates innovation, and creates sustainable competitive advantages. For more than two decades, we have partnered with organisations to uncover strategic opportunities and solve complex business and brand challenges. Through meaningful customer experiences, distinctive brands, and high-impact brand environments, we help businesses accelerate growth, strengthen market leadership, and create long-term value.
Strategic Brand Consulting begins with the brief, but its greatest value emerges through collaborative discovery, seeing beyond the obvious. By uncovering hidden opportunities, we help organisations redefine challenges, unlock growth potential, and translate insights into actionable strategies and implementation of roadmaps. Our expertise spans strategic discovery and opportunity identification, business and brand repositioning, and competitive positioning. We also help organisations prepare for investment and IPOs by crafting compelling brand narratives, strengthening leadership credibility, and building stakeholder confidence through strategic communications.

Brand strategy is a catalyst for business transformation.

Visual identity translates brand strategy into a distinctive, consistent, and memorable brand expression.

Strategically managed, these identity systems build long-term brand equity, increase market share, reduce the cost and risk of growth, and create a sustainable competitive advantage.

By seamlessly integrating physical, digital, and interactive experiences, we simplify complex offerings, build customer confidence, accelerate decision-making, and increase conversion.

Lokusdesign unlocked new growth opportunities for Raymond by redefining how a mature fabric category created value for consumers. We shifted the proposition from selling fabric to enabling fashion, transforming a gifting-led business into a more relevant, occasion-led fashion solution. By integrating consumer insights, business strategy and design, we rationalised 50+ SKUs to 24 and unified the proposition, packaging and retail experience under Quick Style. The transformation helped reshape consumption behaviour, with self-consumption rising from 12% to 39%, according to a Raymond-commissioned study in 2021, while establishing a more focused, scalable platform for category growth.
Lokusdesign transformed Havells from a strong electrical-products company into a unified, scalable brand platform built for portfolio growth and global expansion. Looking beyond the identity brief, we decoded the business challenge created by an expanding portfolio, multiple customer segments, channels and markets, and developed a strategy that connected brand architecture, identity and experience into one integrated system. By creating a consistent yet flexible brand language across packaging, retail, dealer networks, digital and communication, we reduced fragmentation, simplified customer choice and enabled greater reuse of brand investments. The transformation made the master brand work harder – creating stronger differentiation, greater operational efficiency and a scalable foundation for new categories, channels and markets.
Smirnoff Lime’s launch faced a fundamental challenge: how to drive trial and purchase in a highly regulated retail environment where product tasting was not an option. By identifying smell as a trigger for sensory anticipation, the strategy transformed this constraint into an opportunity through an innovative spray-tester experience at the point of purchase. Integrated with packaging, retail POS and promoter interactions, the solution bridged the gap between purchase intent and product trial, turning a brief sensory interaction into a powerful conversion mechanism. The impact was significant: 10× sales in Mumbai, followed by approximately 3× month-on-month sales nationally for the remainder of the year. Recognised as a case study within Smirnoff and Diageo globally, the initiative demonstrated how behavioural insight and experience design can unlock measurable sales growth.
HPCL’s vast retail network presented an opportunity to redefine fuel retail in India through a consistent, scalable and future-ready brand experience. The transformation established a modular, standardised design system integrating brand identity, customer journeys, spatial design, signage and material strategy across diverse site conditions. By optimising material usage, simplifying fabrication and enabling easier maintenance and replacement, the system addressed both customer experience and network-wide operational complexity. The outcome was a unified retail design platform that reduced dependence on bespoke solutions, improved execution efficiency and optimised lifecycle costs – enabling HPCL to deliver a distinctive brand experience at scale while building a flexible foundation for future mobility services.
Mitsubishi Electric India’s Software Experience Centre transformed complex digital manufacturing technologies into a tangible business proposition for industrial customers. By integrating digital twins, AI-powered analytics, IoT, 5G, VR and interactive visualisation, the centre enabled customers to understand how interconnected solutions could address their operational challenges and deliver business value. Its business value lies in making complex B2B sales more effective – building customer confidence, enabling solution-led discussions, reducing repetitive product explanations and helping sales teams engage multiple stakeholders through a unified demonstration platform. By bringing technologies and applications together in one immersive environment, the centre creates opportunities to improve sales engagement efficiency and customer acquisition economics, while its modular architecture supports evolving industry needs and future business growth.
Jaquar’s Technology Experience Centre brings the brand’s design excellence, engineering capabilities and product innovation to life, showcasing over 5,000 products across bathware and wellness. Through immersive storytelling, interactive installations and live demonstrations, it enables architects, designers, developers and customers to experience product quality and performance firsthand. By consolidating product discovery, technical evaluation and brand engagement in one destination, the centre streamlines the sales journey, reduces dependence on repetitive product explanations and equips decision-makers to evaluate Jaquar on value rather than price. This creates a more efficient model for customer engagement, strengthens premium brand consideration and supports specification-led sales – helping translate Jaquar’s product capabilities into greater commercial advantage.
Indegene’s brand transformation established a clear global positioning as a solution partner to the life sciences industry, shifting the narrative from service delivery to broader business value. A consolidated brand architecture clarified the relationship between the master brand, service offerings and communications, while a unified identity and communication system gave teams across markets a consistent framework for creating and deploying brand assets. This created a more differentiated market proposition, greater consistency across touchpoints and a streamlined brand ecosystem – enabling Indegene to introduce new offerings and expand into new markets without continually reinventing its brand.
The Fulflex Product Experience Centre transforms customer visits into opportunities for deeper partnerships, broader collaboration and new avenues for growth. The journey moves from establishing Fulflex’s manufacturing expertise to exploring five application domains – Sports, Medical, Fitness, Textiles and Technical Industrial – demonstrating how its material capabilities address diverse industry needs. Through tactile interactions, product demonstrations and application-led storytelling, customers can discover solutions beyond their immediate requirements, uncover new possibilities and engage in more meaningful technical and commercial discussions. This equips sales teams to unlock untapped applications, broaden existing partnerships and explore emerging market opportunities. By making the breadth of Fulflex’s capabilities tangible and commercially relevant, the centre serves as a platform for forging stronger customer relationships and unlocking new horizons for business growth.
We design and build museums that transform collections, heritage, science, culture, and ideas into engaging public experiences that educate, inspire, and create lasting impact.

Our museums strengthen cultural identity, increase visitor engagement, and build meaningful connections between communities and their shared heritage.
