Urban Pathways

Urban Pathways

After 15 years in the industry, planning consultant Asher Richardson publicly launched his new venture, Urban Pathways Consulting in early 2026. Tired of seeing big planning firms churn through work using templates and AI, we helped Asher define and position the Urban Pathways brand as the expert planning consultancy with a personal touch, underpinned by his unique approach and industry experience.

After 15 years in the industry, planning consultant Asher Richardson publicly launched his new venture, Urban Pathways Consulting in early 2026. Tired of seeing big planning firms churn through work using templates and AI, we helped Asher define and position the Urban Pathways brand as the expert planning consultancy with a personal touch, underpinned by his unique approach and industry experience.

Beginning with interviews, competitor analysis and market research, we began to define what the ideal audience for Urban Pathways was, what made their approach distinctive and how that benefited their clients. This phase would provide the insights needed for the brand purpose, vision and mission–language that would eventually be folded into public-facing content like website copy, capability statements and brand values.

With the brand strategy phase completed, we moved into crafting a visual identity. Inspired by refraction and the movement of light–and how this mirrors Asher's vision that there is never just one single pathway available to achieve a planning solution, the brand is made up of four key gradients. Each gradient has a displacement map applied to represent the multiple steps within a planning process, while the two light beams act as metaphor for the multiple 'pathways' available to follow and arrive at a planning outcome.

Results

The new brand strategy for Urban Pathways has given Asher the space to reflect on what makes the business distinct amongst his competitors. This clarity in his positioning, along with a new language in which to speak about the business, provides Asher with the confidence to sell planning solutions in a way that speaks directly to his clients' fears, motivations and pain points. The new visual identity was rolled out across business cards, branded merchandise, MS Word templates, socials and a new website, with early LinkedIn content driving web traffic and helping Asher present the business with credibility from day one.
