What was the objective behind your collaboration?We wanted to launch with a minimalist identity they felt edgy, not bland. Something global not local-kirana

What did you enjoy the most during your collaboration?The first pitch deck they showed us just got it. They're visually sharp and strategically clear. Loved the no-fluff approach.

What was the objective behind your collaboration?We wanted to create a brand from scratch that reflected our chef’s personality and journey, not just another Italian place.

What did you enjoy the most during your collaboration?The way they asked questions. It felt like therapy but for our brand. Also, the naming process was a lot of fun.

We booked a workshop with Rare to train our internal team on brand voice and comms. We didn’t expect it to turn into a full-blown “aha moment” for the whole company. Rare team ran it brilliantly practical, interactive, and no BS. By the end of the day, our team had a clearer sense of what we stand for and how to communicate it. Even our founder (who never says much) was impressed. Highly recommend for brands looking to upskill teams, not just hire an agency.
