Brand is – The perceived emotional corporate image as a whole.

A designer cannot “make” a brand – only the audience can do this.        

Identity is – The visual aspects that form part of the overall brand.

In most cases, identity design is based around the visual devices used within a company, usually assembled within a set of guidelines.

        

Identity is applied throughout a variety of mediums, using approved color palettes, fonts, layouts, measurements and so forth. These guidelines ensure that the identity of the company is kept coherent, which in turn, allows the brand as a whole, to be recognizable.
