Hello! 2
What’s a brand?
Paramount Hamptons
Brand Guidelines Version 1.0
A brand is a shorthand representation of everything a company is, does and stands for. More than a name or a logo on a page. And more, ultimately, than what that page contains. The guidelines that govern all communications for Paramount are part of a much larger effort to build awareness, understanding and preference for the brand in markets in which you compete. To build a brand that endures.

lf there is one thing that stands out about the projects that I’ve had the
privilege of working on with Paramount, it is that they put relationships first. I attribute this to their family-oriented structure which harbors such virtues as honesty, trust and integrity. I can honestly say that working with Paramount is an honor, a privilege, and a pleasure. Of the thousands of decisions you’ll make over the course of your project, choosing to team up with Paramount is one decision you will always celebrate.
