Process

Complex elements were simplified, while colour and typography were made accessible.

Haft2 carefully refined the logo’s linework to improve clarity and scalability across digital and print applications. Complex elements were simplified to strengthen legibility, while colour contrast and typographic adjustments aligned with current accessibility best practices.

To support the evolution of the identity, Haft2 conducted a comprehensive review of existing brand guidelines and introduced a refreshed typography system and updated colour palette, improving consistency and accessibility across communications. Updated brand guidelines and a practical training video were developed to support internal adoption and implementation.
