The role of illustrations

Illustration is a key element of the brand system.

Our illustrations range from detailed hero images down to in-product spot images with a consistent narrative of practicality, optimism, and friendliness used throughout. This is accomplished through shape, color, softness, and curves to achieve an inviting, engaging experience.

Illustrations can:

  • make complex ideas more accessible

  • represent our brand - personality, voice, and platform - in an efficient and clear way

  • scale up or down depending on the context

  • affect tone and speak directly to users depending on the job to be done and the user's emotional state

  • help to tell stories and thoughtfully convey ideas - they should not be used as decoration or without consideration
