gawa-gawang salita, ang paggawa o pag-uusap patungkol sa pagba-brand kasama ang mga ibang tao
a made-up word, the act of doing or discussing branding, ideally with multiple people
We are Brandihan, a design blog that focuses on following corporate and brand identity in the Philippines.
Brandihan covers a multitude of topics involving marketing, design, and branding; both in concept and in the real world. We hope to bring a lot of discussion and analysis forward into the branding world; not just for experts and insiders, but also how branding gets seen and interpreted by everyone— from brand junkies down to the everyday person.
