If knowledge is necessary to make better decisions, one has to be able to access and understand information. A product that focuses on providing the simplest overview possible of all the activities representing a business, along with offering products to streamline the workflow of community managers and digital marketers.
Type is a brand manifestation and yet remains one of the least understood components of branding. Designers know, however, that the right typeface has always been a core element of a brand’s identity; just like all other design components such as color, imagery and tonality, every letter is a reflection of a brand.
SumAll chose Proxima Nova a few years ago because it was one of the first complete web-optimized font sets with many styles; its classic geometric sans serif design suited the brand and was not prevalent back then. Just a few months later SumAll ran into the brand issue of not being clear-cut enough. We chose to do a redesign for SumAll’s numbers. They are the most important set of characters considering SumAll is all about displaying data. The Result: Comparing the old Proxima Nova with the new set for SumAll, the numbers are much straighter and grid-based, more masculine and streamlined.
Based on Wordpress, we created a new responsive theme ready to optimize user onboarding via the blog as a marketing channel.
Letterpress business cards in various brand edge colors. SumAll’s brand strategy is to turn data into insights. Over the past years, we’ve made various infographics that went viral. Illustration Style: We developed an illustration style that helps SumAll to clearly explain their brand message: insights by showing data that is easy to consume.
