Our brand

Brand name

Nouncify is our brand name.

This word is a neologism, created from an amalgamation of the latin word 'nounce', meaning to call or say, and the modern trend of using words ending in 'ify' such as the brand name Spotify.

We envisage the brand name to evolve from a pronoun to a verb as our global community grows.

Tagline

Your name. Your voice is our tagline. #YourNameYourVoice

Our tagline embodies the functional representation of Nouncify's vision and mission.

We want you to express your identity in the way you wish it to be voiced.

Just how each individual expresses their identity through fashion, food taste preference, and their social interest group participation; we believe the forefront of everyone's character starts with the pronunciation of their name.

Logotype

Logotype Nouncify text

Nouncify deploys Courier New as its logotype. With its monospaced structure and poised serifs, this logotype allows for a seamless blend of tradition and innovation, while conveying a sense of simplicity and practicality.

Logomark

Logomark no background

Nouncify's distinctive logomark features a microphone nestled within a perfect circle, representing the auditory function of our service, while symbolising our desire to deliver a streaming service available to everyone at the push of a button.

Logo lockup

Horizontal lockup
Vertical lockup

Logo lockup refers to the prefered combinational use of our logotype and logomark when used together. Nouncify's logotype and logomark may also be used seperately where there is limited space, or our brand awarness has established currency.

Our horizontal lockup should be your first choice.

Clearspace

The significance of ample clearspace surrounding all our logotypes and marks cannot be understated. By providing a generous buffer zone, we ensure that our logos command the attention they deserves, while allowing our brand's identity to be communicated to your audience.

Co-branding

Co-branding Nouncify text

Visually representing Nouncify's collaborations and partnerships with other community organisations and entities is vital for all parties. Nouncify's logotype is the only brand form to be used for co-branding. The vertical line seperating the brands needs to be presented in our Light grey.

Relevant and roomy spacing between our logotype, the third party's brand asset, and the vertical line is expected.

Misuse

Logotype or logomark should not be re-coloured
Logotype or logomark should not appear on non-brand colour
Logotype or logomark should not be used on backgrounds where our brand legibility is compromised
Logotype or logomark should not be locked up with accompanied text
Our logotype should not be presented using alternate typefaces
Logotype or logomark should not be stretched or squashed

Brand typeface
