The Vooks Brand Guide

As Vooks expanded into new products, partnerships, and distribution opportunities, I helped create a unified brand system—remaining playful for kids while building trust with parents, educators, and business partners.

About The Project

The Problem
As Vooks expanded across product offerings, marketing, partnerships, and new distribution opportunities, the brand needed a clearer and more cohesive identity. Teams were creating assets across many contexts, but lacked a single source of truth for how Vooks should look, sound, and feel.

The Goal
Create a flexible brand system that:

  • feels imaginative and joyful for kids

  • builds trust with parents and educators

  • supports partnerships and B2B conversations

  • scales across products and future initiatives

The Result
The guide became a shared resource across teams and helped establish Vooks as a thoughtful, mature brand with a clear identity and consistent voice.

Design Principles

Playful, but not chaotic
We wanted Vooks to feel imaginative and exciting for kids without becoming overstimulating.

Built for trust
Parents and educators are as important as children, so the brand needed warmth and credibility in equal measure.

Story first
Every element, from typography to photography, supports the wonder and emotional connection that stories create.
