On dark backgrounds

ENVOY in capitals, STRATEGY beneath it, and one detail to remember it by: the O, drawn as an open ring with part of it in grey.

The decisions

Three colours carry the identity: charcoal, a mid grey for the ring, and an off-white.

The logo comes in a version for light backgrounds, one for dark backgrounds, and a square version.

The website follows the same palette: the off-white logo over a black-and-white photograph, then white and charcoal sections, with the text set in Lexend.

A first-round logo option: “Envoy” in a heavy lowercase with a green dot set into a square E, and STRATEGY spaced out beneath.

First round — Envoy in a heavy lowercase, with a green dot set into a square E.

A Revision 01 logo option: a compass needle inside a grey ring, beside “Envoy” and STRATEGY.

A Revision 03 logo option on a dark textured board: a wireframe globe beside ENVOY in capitals, with a large globe on the right.

The final logo on white: ENVOY in capitals, its O an open ring with a grey arc, and STRATEGY beneath.

The final logo — The O becomes an open ring, with one arc in grey.

Four versions of the wordmark on white cards, each with small colour swatches beneath: greys with green and brown, black with plum, navy, and black.
