01 / Wordmark & spacing

  • Use the serif wordmark in title case and keep the descriptor secondary.
  • Keep one capital-V height clear around the wordmark. Minimum width: 100 px digitally or 25 mm in print.
  • Use espresso on pearl or blush; reverse to pearl on espresso.
  • Never add cosmetic sparkles, shadows or outlines, and do not narrow the letterforms.

02 / Colour system

Espresso#402D2A

Wordmarks, principal headings and body copy.

Clay#C98E79

Cards and accent panels with espresso text.

Pearl#F7F0E8

Consultation folders, brochures and reading surfaces.

Blush#ECD4CB

Quiet secondary surfaces and presentation details.

03 / Typography

Aa

Considered care. Clearly explained.

Georgia for display · Arial for supporting text.

One clear headline, a short introduction, then useful detail. Use sentence case and generous line spacing.

04 / Voice & expression

How the brand speaks.

  • Explain consultation choices and the process in direct, balanced language.
  • Use calm descriptions without judging the reader’s appearance.
  • Avoid perfect-skin promises, beauty pressure and unsupported treatment claims.

A single fine rectangular frame defines the edge of a cover. Leave wide margins and avoid layering frames over photography or text.

05 / In use

Consultation folder

A pearl cover with a fine frame creates an organised home for appointment information and clinician-approved documents.

Patient information

Use short sections, readable type and generous margins. Keep treatment explanations separate from promotional headlines.

Cards & clinic signage

Warm clay cards and frosted signage extend the same wordmark proportions and quiet spacing into physical materials.

An independent identity study for a fictional practice, created by Branding Pioneers. The presentation image is an AI-assisted mockup; the guideline booklet and editable wordmark define the design specifications.
