THE MAGIC SAUCE
Our Process
With every brand project we have a proven process that we follow, from our initial meeting to the final delivery of your custom brand files. We have found that this process is the “magic sauce" that helps us create a strategy and brand identity that is tasty and authentic to you.

Meet the Duo


TWO FIRE SIGNS
Trout Design Co. is led by wife & husband duo Debbie and Tim Trout. Since opening in 2017 we have lent our talents to a variety of branding and design projects across the nation, and have continued our pursuit of helping brands showcase themselves through thoughtful design.



We’re a creative yin and yang: I’m usually out front shaping ideas, direction and working with clients, while Tim works behind the scenes, adding thought, structure, and keeping every brand rooted in strategy and intention.🧠
What you’re seeing here is just a fraction of the work we’ve created over the years. Eight years in, and the work keeps getting sharper, deeper, and more aligned. Grateful for every brand we’ve helped build and excited for the ones we haven’t met yet.✨🔥

Have a story to tell? Let’s build the brand that brings it to life. 🎬


When we take on a brand, we don’t just jump into design, we start by diving deep to understand who our client is and the value their products or services bring. Every research insight, every foundational element, and every strategy is carefully mapped out before any visuals for the brand come to life. By the time we begin designing, we already have a clear picture and a complete set of ideas to showcase our client authentically. 🔎
This part of our process is what allows us to create cohesive, meaningful brand identities for a wide range of clients that truly resonate. ✨
Ready to bring your brand to life? We’re here to help. 🤓


The whole concept centers around the grass. It’s what makes Wimbledon Wimbledon. I wanted the identity to feel fresh but still rooted in tradition—crisp lines, bold greens, playful type, and little nods to the charm of the Wimbledon atmosphere (yes, strawberries included).

One piece of this experience is a logo mark, a simplified symbol or icon for a brand.
Logo marks are a small but impactful part of a brand identity and are meant to be scalable and easily recognizable.

Throughout the project we explored energetic visuals, a 3-D type exploration and multiple patterns for the brand, and wanted the work to feel like it was moving, and to jump out at you! Boompa’s guiding message of “Let the Wild Out!” meant every aspect of the brand needed to be confident and expressive to showcase and promote this soul and energy.
“Boompa is the exclamation mark when you land that new trick, make that goal or win that dance off. It’s claiming back that self confidence and not giving a flying fox!” - Koa

If you took away the logo, would people still remember and connect with the essence of your brand? It’s the story, values, and emotions behind the visuals that truly define your brand and resonate with people long after they’ve seen your logo.
If you’re ready to showcase your story, let’s make it happen! 💡✨

I’d like to say an extra thank you to our clients we have worked with over the past few weeks and months. Timelines and deliveries have been shifted due to all of this and you all have been nothing but kind and completely understanding throughout. I can’t really say enough how much that means. Thanks again for the love and support.💛

The vision for the branding was a mixture of type, color and design elements that conveyed a bold but approachable message. We wanted the designs to mirror Rex’s fun, bright and motivational approach to fitness and wellness.
We used strong visual elements paired with a vibrant color palette to reflect energy and movement as well.

Joygem is a woman-founded food company that empowers all people to slay their hangry vibes with convenient nourishment. This unchosen branding concept for Joygem was meant to showcase this divine product with subtle nods to the Southwest, and it sure was a fun one. This was not the chosen concept but the final one is even better! Stay tuned!

On-brand gifs, illustrations, and icons are some additional items we like to incorporate when designing a brand’s visual identity. By adding in these custom designs they provide a great opportunity to add personality, movement, and give a little extra life to a brand. This simple gif here is from a recent concept for a current client that was meant to represent mindfulness. 😌

The brand has a unique, signature style and Stretchlace wanted their packaging to continue to display their range of stretchy shoelaces. We created 5 custom package designs for them with hand drawn illustration and type to help display the uniqueness of each product and to showcase how valuable their products are.

Seed Retreat is a community that creates experiences to deepen our connection to ourselves, nature, and the world. Through the practices of running, mindfulness, and sports psychology, Seed Retreat explores our relationship to movement and what it means to be fully alive.
This project was a full brand identity along with a website, including various logos, marks, icons, illustrations, a type palette, photo direction, and a custom color palette to tie it all together!
When we work with our clients we dig deep into their purpose and values to create a unique and lasting brand identity that authentically communicates who they are and what they do.
