The solution was to combine an aspiring logo with a traditional antique font and a calm green color.

Pattern

The corporate pattern consists of rhythmically repeating green parallelograms,  which symbolizing continuing growth and correlating with key logo elements.
To create various compositional solutions in printing and information materials, it is allowed to add much empty white space, which could be also intersected by elongated shapes.

Fonts

Antiqua font Trojan Pro 3 has become the main corporate font in the bank's identity. Both regular and bold letterings are allowed depending on the need.
The Forum font was chosen as a pairing family, it is also an antique typeface and is primarily intended for use in text.

Colors

The green color gives the bank identity freshness and at the same time creates the feeling of a reliable and confident financial partner.
