Definition

The brand style guide at Nexia is the visual framework that transforms an identity into a usable system. Every guide is built to be actionable: logo usage rules, colour palette with exact codes (HEX, RGB, CMYK, Pantone), typographic hierarchy, layout grids, spacing, and concrete application examples. AI assists during auditing and benchmarking — visual competitor analysis, detection of existing inconsistencies — so the guide addresses real problems.

Nexia creates brand style guides that live beyond the PDF. Every guide is delivered in Figma for daily use: your team copies components, respects spacing, applies colours without ever opening an 80-page PDF. Illustrated Do/Don’ts, ready-to-use templates, digital and print rules. The result: a consistent brand, even when the art director isn’t looking.

Approach

What Nexia does differently.

01

Une charte qui s'utilise, pas qui se consulte

At Nexia, the style guide is a working tool: Figma with copyable components and ready-to-use templates. It integrates into your daily workflow, not into a forgotten folder.

02

AI audit before creation

Before creating the guide, AI analyses your assets and detects existing inconsistencies. The guide corrects real problems, not theoretical hypotheses.

03

Print + digital in one document

The Nexia style guide covers print and digital in one document. Colour codes for the printer AND the developer, rules for the brochure AND the website.
