Style guide and expression
The primary colour pallet represents the characteristics of the brand. It conveys loyalty, wisdom, energy, compassion and optimism.
Our displayed typeface is Clash Display. It is suitable for corporate identity work but also remain the ‘curve’ to make our identity appear more warm and closed to the audience.
Characters are more welcoming materials for marketing and advertising. It is youthful and relatable to show quickness to get closer to clients, while also maintaining the professionalism of a law firm.
