A brand designer applying to bring a retailer's online and in-store look together

Dear Ms Varga,

My portfolio is linked above1, and the first project in it is the one closest to your brief: a new identity for Westmoor Buses, from the logo to the timetables to the sides of 140 vehicles, delivered in seven months.

The old timetables came in forty layouts made by six people over twenty years. I reduced them to six templates and one type family, built the system in Figma as a library the in-house team could use without me, and wrote a short guide to go with it. Reprints for errors fell by half in the first year3, and the depot staff now make their own notices that look right.

I start every project the same way: a week of watching how the thing is used before I draw anything2. For Westmoor that meant standing at stops in the rain, which is where I learned the route number had to be readable from thirty metres.

Kiln & Co's listing asks for someone to bring its online and in-store look together. Your shop signage and your website currently use different greens, and I would enjoy fixing that.

I would be glad to talk you through the Westmoor files. I am available most days.

Kind regards, Jonas Becker
