Creator Akira Kobayashi

Avenir Next (2004–2012) by Akira Kobayashi is the expansion of the original version of Avenir designed in 1988 by Adrian Fruitriger. The word avenir is French for ‘future’. As the name suggests, the family takes inspiration from the geometric style of sans-serif typeface developed in the 1920s. ‘Working on it, I always had human nature in mind.’ A. Fruitriger. The style does reflect the name in the sense that it feels modern and clean. The “humanization” makes it feel younger, and it is great for both body type and headlines to make a

Futura is a geometric sans-serif typeface designed by Paul Renner and released in 1927. It is based on geometric shapes, especially the circle, it has an appearance of efficiency and forwardness.

Combining Colors

Not all colors will work together. For instance, using the primary color on black will appear agressive. In order to avoid too many variations there are only a few ways of combing the brand colors.

Brand messaging refers to every communication which makes a buyer relate to the brand by influencing them, motivating them and propelling them to buy the product. It’s the message that tells why your brand matters, what is its value proposition, and how it is different from the competitors. The Brand message is the core message around which other marketing ideas are implemented.
