About

The Barksdale Group has photographed school portraits since 1922. As their in-house Social Media and Digital Marketing Coordinator, Nick started with a written plan in November 2024: get the brand looking the same everywhere, then build a steady flow of posts on top of it. Everything shown here was designed and produced by Nick Arutyunov, founder of Falacade Studios.

Barksdale's Social Media & Brand Identity

The Problem

The brand had a long history but an uneven online presence. Colors and fonts changed from platform to platform, some Facebook posts were duplicated, and access to the accounts wasn't in one place. The original badge logo, with "The Barksdale Group, Since 1922" set around the edge, was made for print and lost its text at profile-picture size.

Our Approach

First came a plan covering every channel: one link hub for all profiles, a defined style for each platform, and a cleanup list for duplicate posts, outdated bios, banners and profile pictures.

Then the visual system. The logo was simplified to the script B inside a double ring, so it reads clearly as a profile picture and works in red on white or white on red. A five-color palette built around the original Barksdale red keeps every post in the same family.

From there came a recurring set of posts: Christmas, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, and weather updates like delays and snow days. Each one uses the B mark as the main visual, rendered to fit the moment: snow texture for a weather delay, clear glass for a snow day, a soft red blur for Christmas.
