VISUAL IDENTITY

GoldenGrace’s visual identity is defined by 4 key assets:

LOGO

GoldenGrace logo is based on the old Levi’s logo but also the current one, combining the past and the present.

TYPOGRAPHY

Most used fonts are Futura (TT) Medium and Minion Variable Concept (16) Display Bold

COLOUR

Two most used colours are the current red Levi’s colour and the blue colour, that is used in our logo.

HIERARCHY

Our brand hierarchy is very focused on symmetry, so it is easy for our customer to navigate.

In the context of GoldenGrace’s design philosophy, the commitment to symmetry not only crafts a visually pleasing hierarchy but also serves as a practical aid for our target audience. This meticulous approach extends to every detail, from the carefully chosen fonts to maintaining a consistent 0.25-inch margin. The symmetry is evident in the precise placement of main text and images, each separated by 0.25 inches, fostering a balanced layout. The intentional color transitions from one page to the next, creating a cohesive brand book.

LOGO

GoldenGrace employs this logo to promote all of our products. The 2D design incorporates Levi’s classic double batwing logo (symbolizing maturity), along with a wordmark and our brand name, GoldenGrace.

The logo represents excellence, akin to the renowned quality associated with Levi’s, and this aligns with the values upheld by GoldenGrace. Clarity and distinctiveness are essential for the logo. We do not like to make the logo huge because we do not want to over power our customers with it

That’s the reason we position our logo primarily in the corners of an image, ensuring it doesn’t overshadow any visual elements.

GOLDEN

This part of the name symbolizes the golden years of life, representing the period associated with aging and wisdom. It reflects the idea that life, like precious metal, becomes more valuable with time, emphasizing the positive aspects and richness that come with age.

GRACE

“Grace” embodies Wkindness, and a sense of ease. It suggests a dignified and refined approach to aging, celebrating the wisdom and experiences that individuals accumulate over time. The inclusion of “Grace” emphasizes the brand’s commitment to presenting aging in a positive light, with a focus on embracing one’s age with dignity and style.

20

TYPOGRAPHY

GoldenGrace carefully blends elements from different eras through its choice of fonts, seamlessly merging the old with the modern.

The primary fonts, Futura (TT) Medium and Minion Variable Concept (16) Display Bold, strike a balance between simplicity and timelessness. This clarity extends to the typography, characterized by a bold and clean aesthetic.

Titles prominently feature Minion Variable Concept (16) Display Bold.

Text colors are chosen thoughtfully based on background, ensuring readability with black, white, and occasional red or blue for emphasis.

The brand avoids italics, preferring the use of medium and bold styles for a consistent and easyto-read visual experience.
