Brand Guidelines Cover Template

The opening page of a brand book should already demonstrate the brand. This 16:9 cover shows your palette as full-height colour swatches with their hex codes, presents your typefaces with a large “Aa” specimen, and lists the chapters that follow. It works as the first slide of a brand presentation or the cover of a PDF style guide.

Design details

Five swatches — two teals, amber, orange and slate — form the right side, each labelled in Source Code Pro so the hex values look like specification rather than decoration. Poppins Bold gives the title confidence, and the type specimen echoes the same teal used in the first swatch to tie both halves together.
