The coaching proposition and identity brought together on mobile.

Match the quality of the coaching.

MST Systems is the strongman training and education company founded by Shane Jerman. Its coaching had earned a respected reputation, but the identity and website did not communicate that quality consistently.

The business needed one visual language across its coaching offer, marketing and apparel — something that reflected the athletes and the community behind it.

The identity and central brand line.

Make the strength recognisable.

Build the identity around the values already at the centre of the business: strength, community and performance. A direct visual language and the line “Making the strong. Stronger.” give that position a recognisable expression.

The same system needed to work on a screen and on a shirt, without becoming a different brand at each touchpoint.

Website design: a digital home for the coaching offer.

One identity across screen and kit.

The work began with the brand foundation, then moved into the logo and wordmark, colour, typography and usage guidance. The website design made the coaching services easier to explore and gave the identity a clear digital expression.

Apparel extended the same language into front-and-back T-shirt artwork. Together, the identity, website and clothing created a connected presentation of the business.
