Design & Branding

An established brand made fit for screens

Many brands come from the days before the web. We carry logo, colours and typefaces over into digital so they stay legible on every display and can be used without licensing problems.

What this is about

A presence that has worked in print for years often causes problems on screen. Colours behave differently, contrast falls short, the logo disappears at small sizes and there is no web licence for the corporate typeface. All of that can be fixed without giving up the brand.

Colours behave differently

A spot colour from print often turns into a grey on screen that nobody wanted. Digital needs its own binding values.

Contrast is mandatory by now

Accessibility requires certain contrast ratios. Many colour palettes that grew over the years do not reach them.

Licences do not carry over automatically

A typeface bought for print usually may not be embedded on the web. That often only surfaces shortly before launch.

What works in print has to be redefined on screen.

Situations that typically bring clients to us

What we actually do

Logo for digital use

Clean vector files, versions for small sizes and dark backgrounds, plus favicon and app icon.

Digital colour palette

Binding values for the screen, checked for contrast against WCAG, with steps for surfaces, text and states.

Typefaces and licences

A review of the existing licences and, where needed, the choice of a web-ready alternative that matches the original.

Digital visual language

Rules for crops, formats and image editing that suit layouts adapting to any screen width.

Design system for the web

Buttons, forms, spacing and states as building blocks, so design and development speak the same language.

An addition to the manual

A short digital supplement to the existing corporate design that agencies and developers actually read.

How we work

  • 01

    Review what exists

    We look at which files, colour values and licences are actually in place.

  • 02

    Name the gaps

    What is missing, what is legally critical and what fails the contrast requirements.

  • 03

    Add the digital pieces

    We work out the missing building blocks without changing the way the brand comes across.

  • 04

    Hand over

    Files and rules go to your team and to everyone who will work with them in future.

Usually no new brand is needed, just an addition. Send us your design manual and we will tell you what is missing.

Frequently asked questions

When print is right but the website and the tools look like a different company, what is usually missing is not a logo but digital rules.

What does digital transformation mean in design?

Extending an existing corporate design so it works as reliably on screen as it does in print. That includes clean logo versions for small sizes and dark backgrounds, binding colour values for digital use, web-ready typefaces, rules for image crops and a kit of buttons, forms, spacing and states. The result is not a new logo, but a presence that holds together across website, shop and social.

Do we need a new corporate design for this?

In most cases, no. Often only the digital definitions are missing: a spot colour from print turns into a grey on screen that nobody wanted, contrast fails the accessibility requirements and there is no web licence for the corporate typeface. We add those points specifically instead of redrawing the brand. Only when the foundations themselves no longer hold do we talk about a new corporate design.

Does design work together with development?

Yes, and that is where the result is decided. We do not just hand over image files but building blocks with rules: spacing, sizes, states for hover, focus, errors and loading. That way design and front end speak the same language, and new pages are later built from existing components. Without that handover, digital transformation stays a presentation.

Who is this relevant for?

Above all for companies whose print presence has worked for years but whose website, shop and internal applications look like a different company. A typical sign is that every agency uses different colour values because there are no binding ones, or that the design manual stops at the letterhead. The effort stays manageable because the brand itself remains in place.
