Colors

Compensate’s color theme focuses on slightly softened black and white. The tones are Carbon and Mist.

In addition to Carbon and Mist, Wave is also part of the color theme. Carbon and Mist should be used as the dominant colors. Images are a vital part of the brand identity and bring color to the otherwise monochromatic color theme. Wave is an additional color and should only be used in small details, such as buttons or highlights. Light Wave should only be used as a background color.

Typography

Compensate’s typography consists of the Circular type family designed by Lineto.

Circular is a geometric sans-serif typeface. The purely geometric letterforms of Circular and the circle shaped symbol C of Compensate are a perfect match.

Iconography

The Compensate iconography is based on the style and forms of the Compensate symbol “C” and the typography of Compensate.

All of the icons represent key principles or features of Compensate. Always make sure to use the icons according to the proper feature.
