Aligné Studio was launching a first-of-its-kind concept, a boutique Pilates and wellness space combining reformer, tower, mat, and infrared light therapy classes with a full recovery treatment room offering massage, breathwork, reiki, energy healing, and more. As a brand-new studio at 59 Great Portland Street in London's Regent Square, they needed everything from scratch: a brand identity that communicated premium positioning, a pre-launch awareness campaign to build a member base before doors opened, and a digital platform capable of handling class bookings, recovery appointments, membership packages, private sessions, corporate wellness, and retreat bookings, all in one place.
We delivered the full journey from concept to launch and beyond. Starting with brand identity, logo, colour palette, typography, and brand guidelines, we rolled out signage, business cards, tote bags, social media templates, and ad creatives. Pre-launch awareness campaigns across social media and email built anticipation before the studio opened. The custom Next.js website integrates with the Momence API via OAuth2 for real-time class scheduling across all four Pilates disciplines (reformer, tower, mat, and infrared mat), recovery treatment bookings, membership management, and credit-based payments. Native iOS and Android apps via Capacitor put booking in clients' pockets. Ongoing email campaigns, social media content, and SEO keep the studio visible and growing.
Brand Identity & Launch Campaigns
We built the Aligné brand from the ground up, a clean, elegant identity that reflects the studio's premium positioning in central London. Beyond the logo, we designed the full suite of brand applications and ran pre-launch awareness campaigns across social media and email to build a waitlist before the doors even opened.
- →Logo design with geometric construction, light and dark variations
- →Complete colour palette, typography system, and brand guidelines
- →Physical applications, storefront signage, business cards, branded tote bags
- →Social media templates and ad creatives for Instagram and Facebook
- →Email campaign templates for launch announcements and ongoing marketing
- →Pre-launch awareness campaigns that built a member waitlist before opening
