Ninja Plans Rebrand

Made for Teachers Across the Globe

Ninja plans, a global online sharing platform for teachers, was looking to rebrand, and they trusted us with the creative task. They wanted to transition away from ninja-themed visuals and rework the brand in a new, timeless direction.

The Concept

Drawing inspiration from school supplies commonly found within the classroom, we housed notebook visuals within the letters of Ninja.

The Approach

We pivoted our approach for the rebrand through brainstorming and sketching. During our initial consult with Ninja Plans, we thoroughly analyzed their current logo and brand collateral.

The Process

Following the initial visual identity’s conceptual direction, we based our first set of logo prototypes on the original ninja-themed design. We unloaded our wealth of ideas into scribbled pages of brainstormed keywords and doodles.

The Logo

Common keywords that kept bubbling up during our brainstorming sessions were school supplies. Although pencils and knapsacks are globally universal, we found that notebooks directly tied to the education industry. Notebooks symbolize the storage of information and are commonly used by both teachers and students within the classroom.

The Colours

We pulled cool blue tones from the Ninja Plan’s initial business card design. Blues symbolize calmness, inspiration, and wisdom — attributes that strongly align with their core brand values.

Breaking barriers through unconfined creativity.
