(1999) Communication Graphics: 20

Description

This style guide introduces a new image program to the employees of Frankel, a brand marketing agency in Chicago. The program included new identity graphics, along with a detailed account of business forms and printed communication vehicles used by the company. The format and uncoated stock are a deliberate choice, positioning the guidelines in a more colorful, user-friendly form than a traditional corporate identity manual.
