GREATFABS
SECTION 1 CORPORATE LOGO THE INTRODUCTION The Greatfabs Masterbrand or Corporate Logo comprises two elements, the logo symbol and logo type. The Logo Symbol is a powerful image evoking the culture of design services - the connection between the strength of communication and the different points that influence. It has a particular relationship with the Greatfabs name. The Logo Type has been carefully chosen for its modern and yet refined, highly legible style, which has been further enhanced by the use of upper case letters. The typeface is
Montserrat regular and has also been chosen to compliment and balance perfectly with the logo symbol. The corporate logo is presented through the use of colour as well as shape and form. The two corporate colours are Red and Dark Blue. It is a fresh and appealing blend of colours chosen for their strong combination - modern - classic timeless. The Colours have been selected according to international standards as shown below and are easily implemented.
1) The Logo Symbol Consists of a powerful element evoking the culture of greatness and a red circle backround. 2) The Logo Title Carefully chosen for its modern and yet refined, highly legible style, which has been further enhanced by the use of upper case letters in dark blue tone of the chosen corporate color.

SECTION 2 CORPORATE TYPOGRAPHY THE CO R P O R AT E FONTS AND T YPOGRAPHY Typography plays an important role in communicating an overall tone and quality. Careful use of typography reinforces our personality and ensures clarity and harmony in all Design.Inc communications. We have selected Montserrat and Source Sans Pro, which helps inject energy and enthusiasm into the entire Design.Inc communications, as the primary and secondary corporate typefaces.
PRIMARY FONT : MONTSERRAT

Bold
The Font The old posters and signs in the traditional neighborhood of Buenos Aires called Montserrat inspired me to design a typeface that rescues the beauty of urban typography from the first half of the twentieth century. The goal is to rescue what is in Montserrat and set it free, under a free, open source license.
