Everett is the profile font for KD. Everett is designed by Nolan Paparelli from Switzerland. The profile uses two variants of this: Everett Sans in Regular, for headings / displays, subtitles and quantity text. Everett Mono is used as a display font for eg. tags "bubbles" and as a supporting element to Everett Sans, its use should be limited.

Images

Photo is a key element of the profile and should be chosen carefully. A good combination of photos of people and situations is important to create variety and provide a picture of the people you meet in KD.


KD has 3 image styles in its identity - Company, industry and campaign. KD has 3 styles to meet the different needs and segments you want to communicate with.


NB! These pictures are for reference only and will be replaced as soon as KD takes their own pictures.

Company

This direction should focus on KD as a company and the people who work there.
