Ternary - Guidelines
Hey folks, sharing here some pages of the guidelines we developed for Ternary.
New visual identity
For Ternary’s new identity we faced the challenge of developing a visual language that could communicate trust, accountability and collaboration, with elements that could feel precise and powerful yet uncomplicated and approachable.
The logo features a simple symbol that brings Ternary’s mission to the forefront: unlocking the full potential of every cloud dollar spent. The wordmark spells the brand name in letters that feel structured and accessible, emphasising both the power and simplicity of the product.
We used Aeonik as the primary typeface as it perfectly combines the precision and structure of a geometric sans-serif, with the humanistic details of a sans grotesk. We also thought of a blue-led colour palette to present Ternary as a trustworthy and respectable brand (to meet the expectations of a powerful financial tool) but paired it with a lively extended color palette to create complex yet accessible data visualisations. The set of hand-drawn scribbles and arrows highlight keywords and actions throughout the website, accentuating the human and collaborative aspects of the brand.
About Ternary

We're looking forward to a continued partnership with Ternary as we discover new ways to improve the product and its marketing environment.
