Nasstar
Navigate complexity with confidence
Client: Nasstar
Key Focus: Brand, Product
Timespan: Jan - May '25
When Nasstar came to us, they’d been at the cutting edge of technology for 25 years, growing steadily through acquisitions. The outcome was an enterprise tech provider with unmatched expertise… and a fragmented brand identity. In a world where technology moves faster than ever, they spoke technical talk to a technical audience. But that audience was shifting, and they needed plain, human language. Their challenge wasn’t just to look modern – it was to sound approachable, cut through complexity, and prove that in a sea of similar services, their real difference was people and approach.
We began with strategy and an insights sprint, interviewing stakeholders across the business to uncover who Nasstar really was beneath the jargon. The findings were clear: every competitor sells the same Microsoft, cloud, and networking solutions, but Nasstar’s real value lies in how they deliver them – curious, collaborative, ambitious, authentic, and above all, easy to understand. We built a positioning that celebrated people as much as technology, shifted their tone of voice from technical to plain-speaking, and set the stage for a brand that made enterprise technology not just clear, but enjoyable.
Visually, we lightened the palette, introduced service-specific colours, and crafted playful pictograms with rounded, approachable forms. The logo was refined to nod to Nasstar’s service lines while feeling modern and distinctive.
On the website, simplified navigation and a warmer, more conversational tone made decision-making faster and easier. In short: we kept the brains of a serious tech brand, and turned up the personality.
By shifting from complexity to clarity, Nasstar improved not only customer engagement but also internal culture, with employees rallying behind a brand they could easily articulate.

Rapidly evolving technologies have created new demands for businesses and employees over the last decade, and the pandemic has accelerated these trends to the point where the office now feels like just another room with internet access.
