SMB Visual Identity
Microsoft
How do you communicate security without relying on the visual language of surveillance during uncertain times?
For Microsoft SMB, we created an adaptive brand identity that replaces traditional security cues with a feeling of confidence. Bright visuals and a flexible messaging system reflect the clarity and peace of mind that come from Microsoft's connected ecosystem, making security feel empowering rather than restrictive. Imagining what it feels like when your data lives during a bright day.

By making the fabric readable vertically and horizontally it becomes readable in the margin when content comes in the assets.
Fabric Tool
To ensure endurance of the identity, we made a tool for the Microsoft team to create their own fabric assets with.
