Five design systems, five directions

Open the design boards to see the foundations, the components and the system applied at desktop and mobile, or open the website mockup to browse a six-page site built on that system with the real handbook copy. The canvas link opens the same boards in the editor on claude.ai.

Option 01 — NSAnsa.edu

Restrained and institutional. Hierarchy comes from scale and opacity rather than colour — one ink at 100/75/60/50 — and the single orange is rationed to one moment per screen.

Option 02 — RFBreformationbiblecollege.org

Editorial and spacious. Display type is set solid at 120px while body copy opens right up to 1.9 leading — nothing is filled at rest, and every corner is square.

Option 03 — GCCgcc.edu

Warm and dense, closer to a printed viewbook. Headings use a true small-caps cut, cream is the default ground rather than white, and the button carries a hairline white keyline inside its fill.

Option 04 — WTSwts.edu

Saturated and ceremonial. Colour carries the page instead of white space — maroon, wine and gold bands in sequence, with a Light display serif floating on top of them.

Option 05 — Identitythe college’s own brand guide

Alexandria, not Oxford. Built from the Brand Identity Guide rather than another school’s site: Gulf Petrol instead of navy, Roman inscriptional capitals, one vermeil gold rationed to a single place per composition, and the Beacon A as the mark. The only option whose typefaces are the real ones.

Circular navy seal with an engraved lighthouse casting gold rays, lettered Athanasius College. Circular seal with a navy lettered band around a gold open book, lamp and cross on cream. Minimal navy mark: a capital A whose apex is a lighthouse lantern, casting a beam over three lines of sea.
Logo explorationsseven studies

The generated studies the identity came out of — three lighthouse seals, three on the older book-and-lamp subject, and the reductive letter A that became the Beacon A. Exploratory raster only: the lettering in several is misspelt or broken, and the page says which. Ends with the drawn vector mark and seal the studies produced.
