1. Brief Project Description

A Corporate Identity Manual developed to unify and standardize the visual branding of Han-A, an association operating across Spain through autonomous communities. The manual ensures consistent application of branding elements while allowing regional adaptations when necessary.

2. Initial Problem

Han-A needed a cohesive branding system to address inconsistencies in visual identity across its autonomous communities. While operating independently, the communities required a unified brand to present a professional image nationally, especially for shared resources like the website or social media. 


🔻 What not to do:

  • Too many fonts – Creates clutter and weakens brand identity.

  • Poor layout – Text and elements feel randomly placed.

  • Bad integration – Taegeuk and Korean text look pasted in.

  • Amateur shapes and effects – Low-quality graphics harm credibility.

  • Harsh colors – Red/blue are misused without visual balance.

  • No clear identity – Doesn’t reflect the brand’s purpose or values.

3. Process

  • Audit: Reviewed past logos to identify design flaws (e.g. inconsistent fonts, poor hierarchy).

  • Color Palette: Defined red, blue, black, and white based on Korean flag for cultural coherence.

  • Typography: Explored modern, readable typefaces fitting for formal and informal use.

  • Sketches: Developed multiple layouts (icon, horizontal, vertical) for flexibility.

  • Icon Design: Created a unified symbol merging tradition and modernity.

  • Feedback: Collected input from community leaders to refine the design.

  • Final System: Built a modular identity adaptable across formats and regions.

4. Solution

The final manual provided Han-A with a cohesive branding system that reinforced its identity as a unified association. By offering clear and actionable guidelines, the manual ensured consistency across autonomous communities, strengthening Han-A’s visual presence both locally and nationally.
