Branding

Our challenge was crafting a unique brand identity for empaóer, aligning with their role in diversity and inclusion. The new name ’em-paó-er’ incorporates the Catalan ‘paó’ (peacock), symbolising confidence and distinction. The branding, including colours, typography, and graphics, reflects this peacock metaphor, underscoring empaóer’s commitment to empowering business leaders in promoting diversity.

Our branding materials for empaóer included a typographic poster, conveying the message: “Make your business a better place.” This was presented on a white background with brand-aligned gradient elements. We also created business cards for empaóer, using similar logic: In both cases, the design emphasises confidence, clarity and progressiveness.

For empaóer’s online presence, we created mockups showcasing the branding on a potential website. These designs pay careful attention to accessibility, ensuring type size, colour and gradient do not obstruct readability. This approach is just an indicator of how empaóer’s brand could be effectively and inclusively represented online, for when they’re ready to develop their website.
