Why Brickclay
A Team that Builds Systems, not Deliverables.
There is no shortage of illustration vendors. Here is what makes working with us different.
Illustration is not a side service we tacked on it is where Brickclay was built. Our team has spent over a decade producing creative assets at scale, giving us a depth of craft and visual instinct that generalist agencies simply cannot match.
We do not hand over a batch of pretty assets and call it done. We build illustration and icon systems with rules, documentation, and structure, so your team can use, maintain, and extend the work long after the project wraps.
We understand how illustrations and icons actually function inside real products: responsive layouts, dark and light modes, accessibility considerations, developer handoff requirements. Our deliverables are built for production, not just presentations.
From style exploration through to final delivery, one dedicated team handles your project. No outsourcing, no handoffs to junior designers mid-project. The people who concept your work are the people who finish it.
We work closely with your brand, product, or marketing team at every stage. You always know where the project stands, what is coming next, and why creative decisions are being made.
How we work
A Clear Path from First Call to Final Delivery.
Three structured phases. Predictable timelines. Zero mystery between stages.
Discovery and Style Exploration.
We start by understanding your brand, product, and users. Together we define the visual direction, establish system rules, and align on a style before a single final asset is created. Includes mood boards, style tiles, and a sample set for sign-off.
3 to 5 days · 1 to 2 hours of your team
Design and Iteration.
We build the system in stages, presenting work for review and refining based on your feedback. Nothing goes to final without your sign-off. Expect structured review rounds with clear revision cycles. No surprise deliverables.
2 to 5 weeks · 30-min reviews per round
Delivery and Documentation.
Production-ready Figma libraries with organized, named layers and exports in SVG, PNG, and any format your team needs. Icon systems include naming conventions, usage guidelines, and a visual reference sheet your developers will appreciate from day one.
2 to 3 days · zero effort from your team
Business impact
Not a Cost Center. A Growth Lever.
When your visual system is fragmented, the cost shows up everywhere slower launches, inconsistent brand, engineering teams waiting on design tickets, and prospects who can’t tell your product apart. A cohesive system fixes the root cause, not just the symptoms.
90%
Faster Go-To-Market.
When product, marketing, and engineering can self-serve from a
documented library, new features and campaigns launch without waiting for design tickets. Teams
report cutting asset-
request turnaround by over 90 percent. an email, or a shared intro thread.
3X
Stronger Brand Equity.
Inconsistent visuals dilute trust. A unified system ensures every
touchpoint product UI, marketing site, investor deck, customer email tells the same story. That
consistency compounds into recognition and credibility over time.
66%
Lower Total Cost of Design.
A system with clear rules, documentation, and reusable components
means your team creates new assets faster, with fewer revisions, and without re-hiring for every
new initiative. One well-built system replaces dozens of one-off requests.
Beyond Illustrations
Illustrations are Just the Beginning.
Most illustration agencies hand you a folder of assets and wish you luck. At Brickclay, your work connects to a full-stack design and engineering team so when the product needs to match the visuals, or the brand needs to scale beyond a single touchpoint, we are already here.
That’s the difference between hiring an illustration vendor and partnering with a digital transformation company that also happens to have a decade of illustration expertise.

FAQ
A focused icon set typically takes two to three weeks. A full illustration system runs four to eight weeks depending on asset volume and revision rounds. We provide a specific timeline during the discovery call.
Absolutely. If you have an established visual language, we design within it. If you’re starting fresh, we develop a style built around your brand positioning, product context, and audience expectations.
Figma source files plus SVG, PNG, PDF, AI, and EPS exports. All files are organized, named, and ready for use across print, digital, and product environments. WebP or animated Lottie files available on request.
Yes. We design and deliver Lottie animation files as part of our service. Whether you need animated icons, motion illustrations, or looping graphics for product or marketing — we handle it in-house. Lottie files arrive ready to implement across web and mobile.
Three engagement models. Project-based pricing depends on scope: number of assets, complexity, and whether we’re creating a system from scratch or extending an existing one. After a brief discovery call, we provide a fixed quote with no surprises. Retainer clients start with a monthly allocation of hours and can scale up or down. And our Brick Pass subscription plans (BrickLite, BrickPro, BrickMax) give you unlimited access to our design team at a predictable monthly cost — ideal for teams that need consistent creative output without managing project scopes.
Yes, and we encourage it. Many client relationships start with a focused pilot — a small icon set, a handful of illustrations, or a single character design. It’s a low-risk way to evaluate our work, our process, and our fit with your team before committing to a larger engagement.
Freelancers can be great for one-off assets. But if you need a cohesive illustration system, consistency across dozens or hundreds of assets, or visuals that integrate with your product UI — that’s a systems problem, not a single-artist problem. Brickclay brings a dedicated team (not one person), a decade of production-tested processes, documentation and style guides your internal team can maintain, and the ability to scale from 10 assets to 500 without re-onboarding. Plus the accountability of an established agency — we don’t disappear mid-project, and your work isn’t dependent on one individual’s availability.
Yes. Many clients retain us for ongoing illustration support. We scope a retainer arrangement based on your expected monthly asset needs, so you always have access to the same team and the same quality without re-onboarding.
