Brand book

A legally required document, presented calmly.

How DPP Agent looks and sounds. Every marketing page is built from the pieces on this page; if a page looks different from this one, the page is wrong.

Principles

Three rules carry most of it.

01

One thing to do

One black button per section. Everything else is grey or a plain link.

02

Type does the work

Headings are a serif. Hierarchy comes from size and space, not from colour or boxes.

03

Say the fact and stop

No superlatives, no exclamation marks. A claim we cannot check does not go on the page.

Logo and name

The mark is the only blue.

DPP AgentDPP Agent

The EU-blue square with the ring of stars, and the name in spaced capitals beside it. Never “AGENT” alone, never a subtitle under it. In running text: DPP Agent.
