Balancing the need for a high-end aesthetic with budgetary limitations proved to be a complex task.

The Problem

  • Design Approval Bottlenecks: Three Kings Inc. encountered significant hurdles in the design approval process due to the conservative aesthetic preferences of its leadership. The company’s outdated design sensibilities posed a challenge in implementing innovative and contemporary visual concepts.

  • Budgetary Constraints and Luxury Positioning: The company faced the contradictory challenge of positioning itself as a luxury brand within the Indian sneaker industry while operating on a limited budget. Balancing the desire for a premium image with financial restrictions proved to be a complex and delicate task.

  • Synchronizing Design and Development: Coordinating the design and development processes concurrently presented a third obstacle. The simultaneous execution of these critical functions required meticulous planning and management to ensure a seamless transition from concept to final product.

The Solution

  • Design Education and Exposure: To bridge the gap between the leadership's conservative taste and contemporary design trends, we initiated a comprehensive design education program. This involved presenting case studies of successful luxury brands and explaining the evolution of design aesthetics.

  • Iterative Design Process: We adopted an iterative design approach, presenting multiple design concepts and gradually refining them based on feedback. This allowed leadership to visualize the evolution of the design and appreciate the rationale behind the proposed aesthetic.

  • Data-Driven Decision Making: By demonstrating the correlation between modern design and increased user engagement, conversions, and brand perception, we effectively swayed the leadership's opinion in favor of a contemporary design approach.
