04 / Brand Rules

Dos & Don'ts

Do

  • Utilize the sohne-var font family exclusively for all text elements, ensuring a consistent and modern aesthetic.
  • Apply sohne-var with weights 300 or 400 for both body copy and headings, maintaining a clean and readable hierarchy.
  • Format all headings in sentence-case, ensuring a professional and understated textual presentation.
  • Employ a primary color palette dominated by #000000 for text and background, creating a stark, high-contrast, and serious visual foundation.
  • Craft calls to action using action-oriented imperative verbs and solution-specific phrasing, such as 'Accept payments' or 'Implement custom revenue models'.
  • Maintain a moderate vocabulary with some technical jargon, balancing accessibility with industry authority.

Don't

  • Avoid any deviation from the sohne-var font family; no other typefaces should be introduced.
  • Do not use heading cases other than sentence-case; title case, all caps, or lowercase headings are prohibited.
  • Refrain from incorporating emojis in any content, as the brand maintains a serious and professional demeanor.
  • Do not use exclamation marks; the brand's tone is consistently matter-of-fact and confident, not enthusiastic.
  • Avoid overly playful or casual language; the brand's tone is predominantly serious and technical.
  • Do not introduce bright or vibrant colors outside of the established black-centric palette for core UI elements.
