Creating a project in Studio
Create a project in Polimake Studio in three steps: choose the views, fill in the basics and set the style and brand.
On this page
A Studio project brings together everything for a brand, a campaign or a social account: its pieces, its files, its brand and its workflow. Creating one takes three steps, and almost everything can be changed later in the settings.
You need to be able to create projects in the space where you'll save it.
Start
- Click New project on the home screen or in the Choose project switcher in the top bar.
- Check the space it will be created in. If it's not the right one, use Change space.
The wizard has three steps: Views, Basics and Style & brand. Go back with Back and forward with Continue.
Step 1: Views
Choose how you want to see the project. You can turn on one, two or all three:
- Folders: by topic, campaign or delivery.
- Calendar: every piece on its day.
- Board: by status (idea, in progress, done).
On the right you'll see a preview of the project with the views you chose.
Step 2: Basics
- Enter the Project name.
- In What it is, add one sentence about the project. It helps your team, and any AI tools you connect, understand what it's about.
- Choose where files are saved: in a New library or in a library you already have. All of the pieces' files go to that cloud library.
- In References, paste links that give context: a website or an Instagram or TikTok profile. Click Add for each one. You can also mark other libraries of yours as references.
Step 3: Style & brand
- In Brand, choose an existing brand kit or create one with New.
- In Type, pick the typeface for text.
- Click + Logo to upload the logo.
The preview shows how your pieces' text will look. If you'd rather set the brand later, click Not now.
Finish
Click Create project. Studio prepares the file library, the views and the style. If the project is created but the style couldn't be saved, you'll see a notice: you can finish it in Settings › Brand.
Project settings
Open the settings with the gear in the project header. They're split into sections:
| Section | What it holds |
|---|---|
| General | Project name and Opening view. |
| Team | Who has access and with which role. |
| Files | The project's file library and AI media analysis. |
| Brand | Brand kits: identity, brief, voice and tone, memory. |
| Formats | The content types the project uses. |
| Workflow | The statuses each piece goes through, and tags. |
| Publishing | Connected networks and Publishing hours. |
| Advanced | Duplicate, Move all content, Archive and Delete. |
Only the owner can use the Advanced actions. Any editor can change the other sections. See roles and permissions.
Frequently asked questions
Can I choose which view the project opens in?
Yes. In Settings › General, change Opening view. It applies to the whole team.
What happens if I choose an existing library?
The pieces' files are saved in that cloud library, alongside what it already had. This is useful when several projects share material.
Do I have to set up the brand?
No. Click Not now in the last step and add it whenever you like from Settings › Brand.
Who can archive or delete a project?
Only the owner, from the Advanced section of the settings.
