Core values reflected in branding
Typography
Inspired by European typographic trends between the second half of 19th century and first half of the 20th. It looks rational and geometric. However, it is optically corrected and balanced.
This font face is designed to be used mostly for headlines, visual identities or short sentences, both in big and small sizes. Novecento comes in 32 styles.
Color palette
To create the young palette, those tones were taken decomposing the main color, which was burgundy. The idea is to create a colorful palette based on Venezuelan national soccer team jersey.
The bright red color is the primary color, while the violet color is used to create the gradient for the background, then a roast lime is chosen as a supplementary color to contrast with the gradient background.
