86

86 works with brands that need their vision, messaging, and visual identity brought into alignment, running a structured process built around the idea that clarity drives growth while confusion leads to chaos. The agency has served more than 200 brands worldwide, with current work spanning Seattle, Indianapolis, Los Angeles, New York City, St. Louis, Washington, D.C., and Denver.

The scope covers brand strategy and positioning, visual identity, rebranding, packaging identity, and launch and rollout, alongside creative concepting and production. Creative direction sets strategic guidance across all creative output, while brand design work aims for identities meant to be iconic and memorable rather than trend-driven. Messaging work focuses on cutting to the chase, giving brands language that states their point without excess.

Brand activation projects are built as immersive encounters rather than one-off campaigns, extending identity into experiences audiences interact with directly. Print design rounds out the physical side of the work, producing tangible collateral intended to function in the real world, not just look good on screen. Website UI/UX work is framed around effectiveness and efficiency, keeping the digital brand experience user-friendly. Across all of it, the throughline is the 86 approach: fusing strategic vision with a distinct creative style so that brand guidelines, packaging, and rollout materials stay consistent as a brand moves from concept to market.
