It’s all fun and vibes from here 😎

@bolutifeawakan I agree with you Bolu, but brand designers already do a lot within branding alone. Brand strategy, marketing, 3D/illustration, cohesion across everything. That's not small.

Now add motion, web, Framer on top? That's three jobs for the same pay.

[Daniel Akerele @makeitdre]

@isaaczara_ That's the reality lately.

I think it stems from companies not actually understanding what brand design is, so they just stack everything else on top of it.

Imagine working here as a Snr. brand designer, designing and watching all these ideas take shape in real time.

What happens when one of Africa’s most consequential companies outgrows its own story?
