Concept
Concept
Purpose: Build the emotional, visual, and symbolic identity.
Represent is designed to make you feel like a trendsetter. Every drop is limited. When it’s gone, it’s gone. That exclusivity creates energy, anticipation, and a sense of belonging to something culturally sharp and spiritually grounded. The REP logo is a dominant mark, and each piece delivers a clear message. Whether through slogans, scriptures, or subtle visuals. The emotional goal: bold, proud, and unashamed. The brand draws visual inspiration from streetwear giants like Fear of God, Off-White, Nike, and Adidas, while staying rooted in a kingdom-first message.

Development
Development
Purpose: Explore options and refine the visual voice of the brand.
From the beginning, the vision for Represent was clear. The REP logo became the primary anchor, with variations like the Circle REP icon supporting it. Color-wise, the brand leans on a striking palette of safety orange, white, and black—clean and modern but loud when needed. The development process involved trusted collaborators like Pastor Charles Metcalf and Pastor Mike Todd to ensure alignment with the church's broader identity. There weren’t many discarded concepts—the direction was intentional and dialed in from the start.
