The Diamond

The Diamond is a boutique hotel on Leidseplein, built around Amsterdam’s diamond heritage, international polish, and the kind of location that does not need much explaining. The building catches the city from every angle, with a glass facade inspired by the Koh I Noor and a world that feels sharp, sleek and distinctly Amsterdam.

In 2023, we teamed up with Studio Whitfield and Maurits Peeters to create the brand identity. The brief was chic, timeless, sleek, and international. With Iman as creative director and Maurits as graphic designer, we were basically working with our dream team. The results speak for themselves.

Full concept development for brands starting from scratch, no name, no narrative, sometimes just a location and an instinct. We build the full universe: naming, positioning, story, design, and a strategic foundation to grow on. Online and offline, working closely with you from the ground up.

Digital concept development for brands that already know who they are but need to translate that online. We map out tone, content strategy, and how the brand shows up across social and digital touchpoints, rooted in what’s authentic, built to reach the right people.

Not every brand needs the same kind of strategy. For some, it’s social media strategy, sharpening how they show up and connect online. For others, it’s brand or business strategy, the bigger questions about positioning, direction, and growth. We don’t assume which one you need. We figure that out together, then build a plan that actually fits, instead of a generic one that sounds good on paper.

Brand identity is where concept becomes visual – a logo, typography, colour, design language, and everything needed to make the brand recognisable wherever it shows up. We create flexible visual systems that are unique and pleasing to the eye and built to work in practice. We deliver full brand guidelines, asset libraries, and templates so the identity can live and grow consistently over time.

A strong brand identity means nothing without the visuals to back it up. We provide creative direction across photography, video, copywriting, and campaigns, making sure everything looks, feels, and sounds like the brand it’s supposed to be. From concept to production, we handle design, styling, casting, and all the details in between. Nothing is left to chance.
