Business Card The city names are repeated to form a city string and treated with UV coating. They act more as a texture or a pattern to compliment the design, rather than a list of cities to "show off" how many offices the firm has around the world. The graphic concept is based on the firm's corporate philosophy SFMO (Single Firm, Multiple Offices). The city name is highlighted in red on each card to indicate the location of that office.

Brand Manual/Manifesto Book The Brand Book is designed to be half manual (giving clear instructions on how to use the brand elements) and half manifesto (pointing to what our brand aspires to be). The manual portion is divided into hard, medium, and soft content. Hard items are fixed and can not be changed, such as the logo. Medium items are more adaptable to particular circumstances but should still adhere to a unified graphic standard, e.g. proposals. Soft items, e.g. presentations, are flexible, but even here I would like to offer suggestions on how to keep the firm's messages graphically clear and in alignment with their vision.
