Light is never decoration.

Money arrives as a dim stream, and each check gives off light. Here is how the Trifold brand looks, reads and sounds.

The mark

Three panels folding into a triangle: a receipt folded in thirds, and the three records of every dollar. The hero animation ends on this same fold.

On ink
Trifold
On paper
The mark alone, for small spaces and the favicon

Do

  • Give the mark clear space at least the width of one panel.
  • Use it in saffron on ink or paper, as shown.
  • Write the name as "Trifold", one word, capital T.

Don't

  • Recolor, outline, rotate or add effects to the mark.
  • Write "TriFold", "Tri-fold" or "TRIFOLD" in running text.
  • Use the mark to suggest we endorse a product or service.

Color

Two modes, each with its own physics. Dark is the vault at night, lit from inside by proofs. Light is ink and foil: a ledger page on a sunlit desk, stamped and foiled. Never two glow colors in one view. No purple.
