SEB – Simplifying what's complex
Background
SEB has been a long-standing bank in Scandinavian countries for over 160 years. They believe that entrepreneurial thinking and innovative companies are needed to create a better world. As a reflection of their vision for their clients, SEB innovates themselves to deliver world-class services to their customers which includes having a distinct, trustworthy and attractive brand identity.
Working with Kurppa Hosk, an award-winning design agency, SEB rebranded their identity to harmonize their brand strategy and drive future brand sustainability.
Challenge
SEB wanted to be their own narrative of SEB’s brand identity. Specifically, give people an opportunity to learn more about their brand identity and instill brand consistency.
“To compete in this landscape, we need to clarify what makes SEB relevant and unique. A united strategy enables us to tell a coherent story.”
Corporate Identity & Design
In addition, SEB has many partners, who need information about SEB’s visual identity guidelines and assets, on a daily basis. Therefore, SEB needed to have to one central location to manage their brand identity and oversee brand guideline engagement.
Solution
To enhance their commitment of transparency, SEB chose to create a brand manual with deBroome’s brand platform. In turn, SEB would be the storyteller of their history, values, strategies and visual identity.
“It is used as a toolbox…”
