The Clidey brand.

A practical guide to talking about Clidey, using our marks, and keeping the visual system consistent.

One company.
Clear products.

Clidey is the company. WhoDB is a product we build. Keeping that distinction clear makes it easier for people to understand who we are and where to learn more.

Clidey
The company behind WhoDB and the open-source tools we maintain.

Official marks.

Use the supplied files rather than recreating the logos. Keep their proportions intact and leave them enough room to breathe.

Use the marks as supplied

Keep the logo complete, legible, and separate from other marks or copy. Choose a version with enough contrast against its background.

Do not make a new version

Do not redraw, stretch, recolour, crop, add effects to, or combine our logos into a new mark.

A small, deliberate palette.

The palette has five anchors. The role of each colour matters more than finding a new variation of it.

Company work

Clidey Orange leads company pages and calls to action.

Product work

Signal Blue leads WhoDB and other product surfaces.

Highlight

Beacon Yellow is used sparingly: one clear point of emphasis, not a second primary colour.

Three voices for type.

Use display type for statements, sans for clear everyday reading, and mono only where a label, command, or data point benefits from precision.
