Brand Style Guidelines Perth

Create a brand your team can use consistently, confidently and correctly.

At Indepth Design, we know the power of great design.

A strong brand is not just a logo. It is the way your business looks, feels and presents itself across every customer touchpoint. When colours, fonts, logo placement, document layouts or marketing material change from one platform to another, your brand can start to feel unclear.

Indepth Design creates practical brand style guides in Perth for businesses that want consistency across print, digital, signage, documents and marketing. Whether you are launching a new brand, refreshing an existing identity or bringing scattered brand assets into order, clear guidelines help everyone use your brand properly.

Brand Guidelines That Keep Your Business Consistent

Brand guidelines give your team and suppliers a clear reference point for how your identity should be used. They help designers, printers, web developers, social media managers, staff and external partners make better decisions without guessing.

Without clear guidelines, even a well-designed logo can be used poorly. Colours may shift, fonts may change, spacing may change, and marketing pieces may start to look like they belong to different businesses.

Our approach is practical. We create brand guidelines in Perth that are easy to understand, easy to follow and useful in the real world. The aim is to give your business a clear brand system that supports everyday work.

What Can Be Included In A Brand Style Guide?

Every style guide should reflect how your business actually uses its brand. Some businesses only need simple logo, colour and font rules. Others need a more detailed guide covering print, digital, signage, templates and internal documents.

A brand style guide can include logo use and variations, clear space, minimum sizes, colour palettes, typography, image style, icon use, layout examples, tone of voice, file formats, and examples of correct or incorrect brand use.

It can also include practical supplier notes, such as colour values for print and digital use, preferred file types, logo placement rules and font alternatives for everyday documents.

When Do You Need Brand Guidelines?

You may need brand guidelines after a new logo design, a rebrand, a business refresh or a period of growth where more people are creating branded material.

They are especially useful if your proposals, brochures, website graphics, signage, presentations and social media posts all look slightly different. Clear guidelines help your team know which logo to use, which colours are correct, what fonts should appear in documents and how marketing material should look before it is sent to clients.

Designed For Print, Digital And Everyday Use

A good style guide should work beyond the design studio. At Indepth, we consider how your brand will appear across practical applications, including business cards, brochures, capability statements, presentation folders, websites, landing pages, vehicle signage, social media graphics, email signatures, Word templates, and PowerPoint presentations.

Different formats need different decisions. A logo may need one version for a white background, another for a dark background and another for signage. A colour may need screen values and print values. A professional font may need a suitable system font for editable internal documents.

Our Style Guide Design Process

We start by reviewing your existing brand assets, business goals and how your identity is currently being used. If your guide is part of a new branding project, we build it from the approved logo, colours, typography and design direction.

From there, we define the key rules your team needs, including logo placement, colour use, typography, spacing, imagery, layout examples and supplier guidance.

The final guide is prepared as a clear digital document, usually supplied as a PDF, with supporting brand files organised where required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the difference between a style guide and brand guidelines?

A style guide is usually a practical document that explains how to use your visual identity. Brand guidelines may be more detailed and can include logo rules, colours, typography, image style and tone of voice.

Do I need brand guidelines if I already have a logo?

Yes. A logo is only one part of your identity, while guidelines explain how that logo should be used, including the right colours, fonts, spacing, and supporting design elements.

Can Indepth create guidelines for an existing brand?

Yes. If you already have a logo or visual identity, we can review your current assets and create clear rules around how they should be used.

What should be included in a brand style guide?

Most guides include logo usage, colours, typography and examples of correct use. More detailed guides may also include document layouts, supplier notes, and tone-of-voice guidance.

Can you create templates as part of the brand rollout?

Yes. Indepth can create branded Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, stationery, reports, social media layouts and other collateral that follows your approved guidelines.

How detailed should my brand guidelines be?

It depends on how widely your brand is used. A smaller business may only need a simple guide, while a larger organisation may need more detailed rules.
