Creates a corporate identity for your brand
What is creating a brand book?
The main goal of a brand book is to create a unified style for all advertising, marketing and corporate materials, which increases the trust of customers, investors and partners. Its use allows any designer or marketer to adhere to the same standards when developing an advertisement, website, or printed materials.
The main components of a brand book:
- Logo - various variations of the logo, rules for its use, restrictions on changes and use on various media.
- Color palette - main and additional corporate colors, their combination and rules of use.
- Typography - the main brand font and its alternatives, recommendations for text size and formatting.
- Graphic elements - patterns, icons, stylized images used in marketing materials.
- Corporate identity - standards for the design of printed materials, advertising banners, packaging and digital materials.
- Tone of voice - brand communication style, key messages, rules for writing texts and interacting with customers.
