Hi guys,

im stuck for a few days now! we from MicroDesign are web designers and developers. normally for clients we have no problem with idea's and stuff but for our own company i cant find any solutions. whats the thing. we have a pretty nice logo. but we do not got any identity.

Webdesign, E-commerce en Marketing | Microdesign

What i like to do is have some kind of layout in our documents mails and other print media so we have really a signature style..

use of fonts, colours, positions and such. does anyone has examples of good document layouts of does anyone has a idea for our company?

Just follow the style of your website. Using green, black and white. Keep it simple for your stationery and other documents.

You could keep it as simple as just having a full-color logo as your header, and keeping the rest in black ink. For stuff like stationary, keep it as simple as possible.

[microdesign]

we have pretty nice design for the documents. but its more about textual layout. headings, paragraphs and such

[Skinny]

That stuff looks fine. I don't see the problem.

Like others have said: keep it simple.

Im just not quit happy with it all.
what do you guys think of pimping up my whole design work with a new font set.
and how many fonts do you guys suggest to use in your:
offers,
folders,
brochures,
and other print medium.

if you look at our business Webdesign, E-commerce en Marketing | Microdesign
we like to do a all new site for 2008. but the main theads need to be the same (like the m squire idea)
just changing fonts and such
what u guys think?

[Mongoose]

I don't know.. I like what you posted. Your fonts are just fine, IMO. I might even get rid of the green strip down the right side.

[microdesign]

hee man thanks for your support. but just like to know. if i like to tuneup my offers, and informations sheets and other documentations, what other fonts should i use and what colors are possible.

i really need to tune everything up!

[Mongoose]

Some nice sans-serifs are Geosans, Mank Sans, and District Thin. You can always fall back on boring 'ol Helvetica, too.

[microdesign]

Hee you guys like this?
i now used district thin for titles. and arial for normal txt and footer.

isent it a bit busy now. the letter template got now:
- Trebuchet ms (logo)
- arial (txt)
- district thin (titles)







furter i like to do something with colours dont you think?
i now got green, and grayscale

Coops is going to have a field day.

microdesign: IMO don't try to over do it, the letter head is relatively good, as long as everything inside it is neat it will be good.

I know this is the wrong time to mention it, but that 'G' in the logo looks wrong. It looks a lot lighter than the rest of the text, presumably because it's a capital letter scaled down. You should probably use a lower-case 'g', or try to beef up the capital you're using now.

[Limbo]

Or use small caps?

[Coops]

Trebuchet is just wrong.

Haha thanks bro. thats why a mentioned the gotham rounded font. or you got a better idea for logo update??

How about building a brand identity that is based around the name?
Give it purpose as apposed to just making a pretty logo.

Where does the name 'microdesign' come from?
Have you looked up the definition for the word 'micro'?
What are your reasons for choosing the name?

Yeah, Gotham's nice but I'd take heed to the above posts and take another overall look at it...

Had to ask, and hey! if I can spot them I would hate to know what you see.
