Opportunities

Where to go next

  • Own the micro-moment

    Collaborate with galleries and architects to make stores feel like installations.

/ 001 · Method

Three layers.
One genome.

Anyone can measure traffic. No one measures taste. Genome reads visual identity, narrative, and cultural lineage, and tells you what a brand is secretly made of.

Read the full method →

01

Visual

Typography, colour, layout, photography, motion, art direction.

02

Narrative

Messaging, headlines, brand story, positioning, tone of voice.

03

Cultural

References, aesthetic lineage, creative influences, archetypes.

It's the first brand audit that feels like it was written by someone who actually reads fashion, film, and culture, not a generic strategy deck.

/ 002 · Output

What you walk away with.

01

Taste Score

A weighted 0–100 read on distinctiveness, consistency, narrative, cultural relevance and memorability.

02

Creative DNA

A percentage breakdown of the brands you secretly resemble. (Sometimes flattering. Sometimes not.)

03

Narrative Archetype

Which of the eight enduring archetypes you're operating from, and the story you're telling.

04

Influence Network

A credible lineage from cultural ancestor → your brand. Built to be screenshot.

05

Brand Tension

The contradiction you're holding, and the missing dimension that would unlock your next chapter.

06

Campaign Opportunities

Three ownable, surprising directions, not tactics, not generic.

07

Visual Territories

Three moodboard directions with keywords, references and a custom palette.

08

Shareable Report

Everything in a clean, exportable layout. Built for the group chat.

/ 003 · Moat
