Basic principles of the WYVERN ADVISORY Visual Identity Program.

The general image of an organization constitutes a state of public opinion, as a result of the set of communications that this one emits, of its administrative management and of its behavior towards the diverse publics.

to replace the complexity of the body.

These factors generate conscious and unconscious associations, memories, values and attributes that in time form psychological images in people's minds, creating favorable, indifferent or negative attitudes towards the organism.

The technique of a Visual Identity Program is to first establish specific signs, and then develop the structure of its application to all communication media that the body uses.

In short, it is about creating a visual code, from a series of information that are not of a visual nature, but of concept and personality of the project.

The Visual Identity Program of the WYVERN Advisory project, has been realized But an corporation, in with the objective of addition to its management creating a harmonic, and performance, must be coordinated and experirecognized by a visual mental visual image, which image that identifies it, presupposes a stable link in personalizing their all the manifestations and communications to citizens. competences of the project as such its future expanThis visual image, called sions. visual idendity, reinforces the general image and its philosophy is based on the principle that a complex organization with a certain degree of diversity, such as the project, needs to specify its identity on visual symbolic forms, since only a set of signs properly defined and coordinated among themselves, are capable of achieving a code p05

User instructions for this manual.

This volume consists of 4 sections, the first sections deal with design standards and configurations of the base elements (sign, logo and main brand), corporative colors, corporative images and typography to be used. The later sections explain the rules of application of these elements to different media.

The correct application of the rules presented here will contribute to an orderly dissemination of the visual image representative of the WYVERN Advisory project, the main objective of this Visual Identity Program.

When it is necessary to design any support, for internal or external use, not contemplated in this Manual, the project must be submitted to the responsible approval of the person in charge of the Visual Identity Program, before tackling its realization.

The symbol as an optical form, the logo and the corporate colors, are the basic elements of the identity of the WYVERN Advisory project.

p09

The mark takes as reference the wyvern in a modern and symbolist way. It was chosen to make it as simple and elegant as possible so that the w can be read.

As the objective was to represent wyvern + finance, we thought about the statistics tables. At the same time it was designed with a curvature to denote even more dynamism. And advance which is another

value of finance. This symbolic representation of wyvern communicates us less aggressively and is more friendly, the applications in the brand such the use of silkscreen printing and expensive papers will support the communication of its exclusivity.

Its graphic construction has been determined on a modular grid to facilitate its dimensions in a referential way and to be able to be used as a guide when it is necessary to reproduce it to sizes superior to those that can be obtained in the use of the source files.

In this way, the correct proportions between its elements are always ensured.

p12

2.5 Symbol. Minimum reduction.

The reduction test, to which the symbol has been subjected, results in a minimum size of 20pt in height without losing the values of identification and legibility.

It is not advisable to use the symbol with sizes smaller than 20pt.

In order to have a spatial design that acts as a decorative background, this plot of multiplicity has been created, structured on the basis of the repetition of the symbol.

2.7 Logotype.

The verbal denomination of WYVERN Advisory, is graphically represented by the logotype shown on this page structured in two line the English name, and in one line the Chinese name.

The brand, as it has a symbol that already communicates the company's objectives, works with a serif font for the brand name in English,

FinancierDisplay Bold typeface, and the SimSun San Serif Bold typeface for the name in Chinese. This typeface gives a more elegant contrast to the brand, the typeface takes on a personality of professionalism and seriousness.

As can be seen, the structure of the symbol shows the height x of the letter "r" of the logotype.

This measure is used to construct the height of the symbol, "3r", plus a 60° turn.

As a general rule, the main brand will be presented in a predominant way in all the communication media to which it is applied.

For this reason, when the basic elements of the identity of the WYVERN Advisory project are included among texts, illustrations or photographs, some space must be kept around them to facilitate

their quick identification.

These spaces are determined by the distance "r" being the height of the letter â&#x20AC;&#x153;râ&#x20AC;? from the logotype, as it can be seen in the epigraph.

Throughout this section, we have presented the regulations for the configuration of the symbol, the logotype, the main brands and the secondary brand. Any change in these graphic concepts can initiate a loss of identification, which would lead to a total distortion of the visual image of the WYVERN Advisory project.

However, in an elegant way and without taking unnecessary prominence.

This epigraph proposes a palette of 5 main colours, of which only grey and white will serve as key backgrounds for text backgrounds, and the other colours will be a palette that interacts with each other to

create novel effects of the corporate colours.

3.2 Corporate colors for printed applications.

The corporate colors to be used in printing applications are presented. The symbol, logotype, main brand and secondary brand will always be printed in black or in white silk-screen printing (if is possible).

As we can see, the printed colours will be defined by a standard, Pantone, in this case to foresee that the colours will be fixed in different future prints.

The following colors are proposed for the project.

PMS 7919 uncoated, PMS 4635 uncoatted, PMS Coolgray uncoatted, and PMS Black 3C uncoatted.

In addition to the special gold foiling that will work only for the symbol and in the configurations that will be shown in the next chapter.

On clear non-corporate colored backgrounds, illustrations or black and white photographs, whose saturation is less than 40%, the main brand in corporate positive (black) will be used.

If the degree of saturation of the background is higher than 40%, the main mark should be used in negative by the white.

On quadrinomial backgrounds it is recommended to use the mark in negative. Only in some cases it will be possible to adjust the symbol to the colors within the palette of the intervened photograph.
