Letras e Lucros
BRANDING / WEB
The largest virtual personal finance platform in Brazil.
‘Letras e Lucros’ is a website and digital platform that seeks to provide advice and financial support to Brazilian citizens on issues such as pensions, credit, investment and education. It uses a wide number of media to communicate with its audience, including videos, written articles, podcasts, and responds to direct questions through their website.
This project was commissioned as a brand upgrade to an outdated website with low responsiveness and very extensive architecture. Its objective is to look modern, global and digital. They also needed a revamped website that was simpler to navigate.
Project developed together with designer Daniela Heresi.

Old Logo
We first analyzed the previous logo and discovered that it can be improved considerably. The symbol graphics seem outdated and the typeface used is not the most appropriate for a logotype as it is better suited for paragraphs. We liked the tagline "com você" because it added a hand-drawn element that makes the brand seem closer to the user. Nevertheless, the client wanted to have a logo without tagline, so we started ideating with this in mind.
