Icon style

New icon style is flexible and easy to use. The precedent rule is building the icons out of rounded shapes. These icons can be pictograms, with the meaning shown directly (e.g. category icons) or they can be more symbolic (e.g. the icon of a tree can inform about green spaces or symbolize a lot). They can also convey emotions through abstraction (e.g. heart, star). This icon style should be coherent throughout the set. The rules are set in a flexible way to have an option of creating new icons in the future open. 

Category icons

Category icons are more specific, because they convey a more specific information directed at the users of the Otodom on-line service and other entities. The icons are designed in a way, where they clearly define a category.

Additionally the categories use color codes outside of the additional color palette. These colors should only be used for categories and should no be used throughout the brand.

Backgrounds

Icons and shapes have a direct use in building backgrounds which are commonly used throughout th Visual Identity. 

The backgrounds use full color with a cropped shape or icon in a lighter shade of the background color (90-80% saturation).

Types

A background expresses visual characteristics of the brand and is an inherent brand design tool. Otodom’s Visual Identity offers a set of backgrounds, which originated in the symbol.
These backgrounds are made with two shapes: a rectangle that sets the background space and a circle cropped into the space. This mechanism can be explored further by adding colors and emotion icons instead of the cropped circle.

The background color should use 100% saturation, while the shape should be 80-90% saturated, depending on the desired contrast.

Formats

The backgrounds can have different sizes and can be designed freely. When designing, the main component that should be taken into consideration is the copywriting. After all elements are properly composed, you can set the background space in which you will be designing. 
Here different formats and color combinations are shown. 

Photography

Photos are a huge carrier of information and emotion. That is why it’s important to use photos carefully and in a conscious way. A photo can carry the main message and by being used in the layout it can perfectly express the message and accentuate the brand character.
