“The new NextView website is more than just a redesign—it’s a reflection of who we are today and where we’re headed. The Design Axl team captured the heart of our brand with a stunning visual and verbal identity that celebrates our portfolio, our team, and our evolution. The result is a site that feels vibrant, human, and distinctly NextView.”

Design Axl’s collaboration with NextView Ventures, a partnership that began in 2019, has culminated in an award-winning project recognized in GDUSA's 2024 Best-of-Year competition. Building on years of collaboration, we led a comprehensive brand refresh that included a new brand voice, identity, and a suite of applications such as logo, website, and digital assets. Collaborating with illustrator Dana Smith, photographer Liz Linder, Herzog & Schindler for brand voice, and Code Greene for web development, we crafted a fresh visual narrative that reflects NextView’s vision, team, and investments.
Phase I: Brand Redefinition
Design Axl redefined NextView's brand, creating a cohesive system that ensures consistent communication across all platforms. We developed a refined brand narrative to serve as a foundation for both internal and external messaging, guiding future communications with clarity and impact.
Phase II: Brand Identity
The project included a complete visual identity overhaul, featuring a new logo, typography, color palette, and design principles. Comprehensive brand guidelines were crafted to support consistent application of the new identity across digital and print media, with additional assets, such as illustrations and social media graphics.
