Tokenise

Brand designer — identity & brand system

A brand system for a regulated financial venture inside the VERO ecosystem — credible, connected and culturally alive.

Tokenise brand guideline presentation slides arranged in perspective, showing the teal identity, chain-link motif and subbrand colours.

Overview

Tokenise needed a brand system for a regulated financial venture within the VERO ecosystem. It had to feel clearly connected to VERO’s community-led world while remaining distinct enough to operate as a financial brand in its own right. I developed the brand proposal and guidelines — defining the visual direction, tone, subbrand architecture and application system — and designed the brochure, social graphics and video assets, directing specialist 3D asset development across the core brand and subbrands.

The challenge

What the work had to solve

Tokenise had to stand apart from VERO for legal and regulatory reasons, while still feeling connected to the wider ecosystem. It also needed to hold three related entities — the Brokerage, the Stock Exchange and Digiclear — each distinct enough to operate independently yet combining into one coherent group. The tone had to serve two audiences at once: financially minded investors and fan-based communities. It needed to feel credible, regulated and secure, while staying accessible, energetic and connected to culture.

The solution

What Maria designed

I created a flexible brand system built around clarity, motion and connected ownership. The visual language used luminous chain-link forms, gradient fields, dark interface-led layouts and precise typography to connect finance, technology and community. Shared colour logic, typography, graphic rhythm and 3D assets created consistency, while each subbrand kept its own role and emphasis — the core world sharp and financial in teal, blue and greys, with Digiclear taking a more crystalline treatment to express custody and settlement.
