BRAND SYSTEM / 1.1
The fixed WebSage identity · September 2026

More customers.
Less busywork.

Light typography. Soft glass panels. Clear explanations. This is the standard for the website, proposals, presentations, social posts, and future WebSage materials.

Start with roughly 65% light space, 25% charcoal, and 10% orange. This is a composition guide, not a quota for every page.

01 / Character

Confident. Practical. Clear.

WebSage helps business owners make their services clear and their everyday work easier. The identity should feel capable, considered, and approachable.

Service description: We build AI automations and websites.

Supporting promise: Websites that help customers choose you. Automations that help your team follow through.

Use this voice

“Connect missed-call replies to your team.”
“See the scope, cost, and next step.”

Avoid this voice

“Unlock frictionless transformation.”
“Revolutionary AI that guarantees growth.”

Prefer concrete tasks, honest evidence, and short sentences. Use WebSage in written copy, with capital W and S.

02 / Typography

One reading family. A distinct wordmark.

Headlines / Manrope Medium

Well-built work.
A clear next step.

Use Manrope Medium 500 for headlines and section titles. Keep letter spacing gently tight and leave room around the text. Archivo Black is reserved for the existing wordmark.

Body and interface / Manrope

A website your customers understand. A workflow your team can use.

Regular 400 for paragraphs. Medium 500 for subheads and navigation. SemiBold 600 for actions and labels. Bold 700 for emphasis and important figures.

Approved text pairings

Ink on Paper: 16.85:1. Muted on Paper: 5.82:1. Ember on Paper: 6.09:1. Ink on Orange: 5.41:1.

Orange buttons use Ink text. Paper text on Orange measures only 3.11:1, so do not use that pairing for normal-size text. Bright Orange is an accent, not the default link color on Paper. Use Ember for small colored text.

HEX/RGB are the digital source of truth. For print, have the printer convert through the intended paper/press profile and approve a proof. No Pantone or universal CMYK match is specified.

04 / Logo

Keep the mark consistent.

Current WebSage markwebsage.
WebSage standalone mark
  • Use the existing mark with the established lowercase wordmark and orange period.
  • Leave clear space of at least half the mark’s height around the complete lockup.
  • Use the detailed mark at 32px or larger on screen. Keep the existing favicon for small browser tabs.
  • Place the current dark mark on Paper or a plain light background.
  • Keep proportions fixed. Do not stretch, rotate, recolor individual parts, or add shadows and outlines.

The supplied mark is the current 200 × 200px PNG, unchanged. This package establishes usage; it does not claim to include a vector master. Large print production needs the original vector artwork.

05 / Layout and graphics

Let the work carry the page.

Spacing and shape

Use the 4/8px spacing family: 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 96. Default to 24–32px between related blocks and 64–96px between desktop sections; reduce section spacing on mobile.

Keep content within 1320px. Start with 56px desktop gutters and 20px mobile gutters. Use 12px button corners, 20px card corners, and 10px input corners. Glass panels use a light translucent fill, a fine border, and a soft shadow. Blur only the background behind the panel; text stays sharp. Use a near-opaque fill on mobile and a solid fallback when blur is unsupported.

Photography and proof

Use real website screens and approved workflow captures. Keep explanatory text in HTML rather than baked into images.

Icons

Use the supplied SVG sprite: a 24 × 24 grid, 1.75px strokes, rounded line ends. Render interface icons at 20 or 24px. Arrows indicate a destination or action. No emoji icons.

Motion

Use 180ms for hover and focus transitions. Larger reveals can use 400ms. Keep any decorative motion optional; respect reduced-motion preferences. Never delay access to content for an entrance animation.

Consistency

Do not add a third font, a new brand accent, gradients on the logo, or a new icon style for an individual page.

Scope. Investment. Timeline.
Keep these distinct and easy to find.

Social posts: one headline, one real example, one next step. Proposals: use Paper backgrounds, Ink body copy, and Orange for a section marker or decision point. Keep the brand recognizable without covering every surface in orange.

07 / Font packages and files

Ready to reuse.

Selected after reviewing Archivo, Archivo Black, Manrope, and the General Sans family listing. The reference-led revision uses Manrope for both headlines and body, producing a lighter rhythm. Archivo Black remains only in the existing wordmark. The exact font in the supplied screenshots was not identified; Manrope is the selected interpretation.

Both selected families are released under SIL Open Font License 1.1. The package includes the license notices; keep them with redistributed font files. Commercial design and embedding are permitted under those terms. Font files cannot be sold on their own.

Primary sources: Archivo Black license, Manrope license, Manrope family, General Sans listing.

The downloadable package contains this guide, desktop TTF fonts, compressed web fonts, licenses, the existing mark, the SVG icon sprite, CSS tokens, JSON tokens, and setup instructions. It works without a font subscription.
