GoDaddy needed to shed its reputation for lowbrow marketing and reposition as a legitimate partner for small businesses. What started as a campaign to launch their new domain extensions (.nyc, .guru, .club) evolved into a full rebrand. I developed the core design direction: bold, punchy typography inspired by Saul Bass and 1950s storefront signage, with the type itself as the hero. A "dynamic dash" graphic became the system's signature, stretching to add energy across layouts. We delivered the full identity (typography, color, iconography, OOH, and print) while collaborating closely with GoDaddy's internal team to roll out the system across their web experience.
