Speak.easy

Brand Identity • Internal Communications

The Challenge

DCI Engineers needed a recognizable visual identity for Speak.Easy, a quarterly town hall connecting the Corporate Management Team with employees across 20+ offices.

The Approach

I collaboratively developed the Speak.Easy logo and supporting visuals, starting with microphone-based concepts and evolving into a 1920s speakeasy-inspired mark featuring a gramophone icon. Typography and styling balanced vintage influence with a modern, approachable feel.

The Outcome

The final identity gave Speak.Easy a distinct, memorable brand presence and helped unify internal communications for live-streamed presentations and Q&A sessions.
