THE VISUAL STANDARDS GUIDE

PALM

Palm was the first popular hand-held computer that bridged the gap between the electronic organizers and PCs. It was a popular household name then but it failed to reinvent itself to attract the attention of consumers in today’s market. Re-branding of Palm’s identity is a crucial step and the first of many more of to come. We have outlined a new strategy that redefines the way Palm conducts business in the future. This Visual Standards Guide will take you through the process of the new identity development and the do’s and dont’s of using the identity across various assets. But before we do that, let’s take a look at how far we’ve come. THE NATURE OF IDENTITY
