Vibrant Capital · Brand guidelines v1.0

Vibrant Capital, by the book.

One mark in three parts, one loud colour, two typefaces and a way of talking. Everything here is what the site already does, written down so the next card, deck or hoodie does it too.

01

Architecture. One owner, many companies.

Vibrant Capital selects a few companies, takes ownership and makes them investable. The companies keep their own names and their own brands; ours sits behind them, not on top of them.

Vibrant Capital leads

On our own materials: the site, decks, cards, merch. The mark and the lockup appear here and nowhere else.

Portfolio brands stand alone

FLIQ, TPP Validation and tppv.dev keep their own identity. We show them by name and with their own logos, side by side, never merged with ours.

Rocket Factory is the build company

Named as “our build company” wherever product work is shown. It has its own brand kit at rocketfactory.ai.

Sign as Vibrant Capital AB

The legal name goes in footers, invoices and contracts: “© 2026 Vibrant Capital AB · Stockholm”.

Don’t put our mark on theirs

No co-branded lockups, no “a Vibrant Capital company” badges on portfolio products.

Don’t give the parts new names

The three parts are Experience, Detail and Architecture. They do not become product names or sub-brands.

03

Colour. Mostly quiet, one loud.

Night and Paper carry the page, Ink and Bone the text. Signal pink is the one loud colour, and the gradient into Flame lives on the mark and on one word per statement. Click a swatch to copy its hex.

Text on backgroundRatioWCAGUse

CMYK and Pantone values are the nearest match, not an exact one: ask the printer for a proof or a drawdown before a run.

04

Typography. A grotesk and a mono.

Familjen Grotesk, set tight, for everything you read. Martian Mono, small and uppercase, for labels, numbers and anything that reads like a readout. Both are open source (SIL OFL).

One emphasis per statement

The italic word in the gradient. One per headline, never a whole sentence.

Tight, not cramped

Display type is tracked in and set solid; give descenders room when the gradient clips them.

Fallbacks

Helvetica Neue, Arial for the grotesk; ui-monospace, Menlo for the mono.

Get the fonts

Familjen Grotesk (OFL) and Martian Mono (OFL), from Google Fonts or the files in /fonts.

05

Graphic elements. Hairlines that mean something.

Thin lines, a few dots and the three parts. Every drawing says the idea it sits next to, and the gradient is the only colour that moves.

StringsThe page is a set of strings; the logo is one string pulled into a V. Faint at rest, lit in the gradient when plucked.
The three partsThe mark drawn apart, with hairline leaders and mono labels. For backs of shirts, covers and end slides.
SelectionA field of dots, a scan, three picked and joined: we back a few companies a year.
Three vectorsOwnership, resources and funding drawn head to tail: three ways we move a company.
The page follows the reader

Hero, sections and contact are Paper in light mode and Night in dark mode. Only the portfolio scenes stay Night, built around the products’ own dark frames.

Imagery is the real product

Live sites in a browser frame, scrolling, over a blurred wash of their own colour. No stock photos.

Motion is quiet and earns its frames

Slow, slight, and it rests when nobody is watching. Respect reduced motion.

06

Voice. Owners, not advisers.

We write like people with equity on the line: short, concrete, sure of the next step.

Numbers over adjectives

“Seed to a $20M Series A in six months”, not “rapid growth”.

Short sentences, real verbs

Select. Own. Allocate. Raise. One idea per line.

Three, not four

Lists, steps and options come in threes, like the mark.

One loud word

Each headline gets one emphasised word, and it is the word that matters.
