IDENTITY BREAKDOWN
Let’s break it down The concept derives from the characters of a pier where people come and trade anything from craft to ideas. which is defined by the mark of the double “F”. Infused with an offprint touch created by the signature yellow, the wordmark as a whole exudes the spirit of First Friday.
2.4
01
The Pier Used as a landing for ships, entertainment area, strolling place, an area of trade.
02
What The F The “First” F is defined by the negative space provided by the solid secondary “Friday” F.

TAGLINE
More than 1 way to say it. As a creative outlet, we see our community as layers to a collage with each element different alone, but together, adds contrast, depth, and meaning. With different ways to express our message, why chose only 1? Tagline must always be presented in regular weight, with the exception of the “1� being in bold and the 03 lockup
4.2
01
Landscape lockup This loockup is Ideal for horizonta applications.
02
Portrait lockup This lockup is ideal for vertical applications.
03
Brand background color Only behind the signature yellow should the typeface be changed to a Bold weight

TYPOGRAPHY
We have an, accent Without a little flair, soul, and flavor, we wouldn’t be able to create our tone and accent to accompany our brand. We chose typefaces that could portray our rhythm and sound.
4.6
01
DIN Originally designed by Albert-Jan Pool in 1905, Din was used for German state railways. Its x-heights and strong foundation makes this typeface ideal for First Friday.
02
Proxima Nova Designed by Mark Simonson in 2005, the typeface Proxima Nova bridges the gap between typefaces like Futura and Akzidenz Grotesk. A hybrid that combines modern proportions with a geometric appearance.
