Embedding Brand Stories in Fonts: Brand New Hyosung Font

2023.07.30

Recently, companies have placed increased focus on fonts to establish their brand identity. According to the results of the study "Analysis of the Utilization of Domestic Exclusive Fonts and the Correlation Study of Consumer Brand Awareness,” there is a proven correlation between the frequency of exposure to brand-specific fonts and higher utility and consumers' positive perception of the brand. Businesses can effortlessly establish a distinctive brand identity that sets them apart from the competition by forging an immediate connection between a company and its unique font.

Known as typo branding, this process enables a company to unify its voice and convey its values effectively. Hyosung Group also aims to convey its distinctive voice, embodying the four core values of Hyosung Way – Global Excellence, Innovation, Accountability, and Integrity - which represent the direction toward a new future for the group. Hyosung Group intends to unveil its own brand font encapsulating these values. Hyosung Group aims to capture the essence of the new Hyosung in its own exclusive font, intended for its employees, the public, and customers. This font, called "Brand New Hyosung," represents a youthful and evolving image while retaining the Gothic framework and it possesses a comfortable sense of balance, making it readable in various contexts and enabling effective communication of sentences. With the "Brand New Hyosung" font, Hyosung promises to embrace tomorrow first and a future filled with possibilities.

 

                                                  

 

Typobranding at Hyosung Group

Companies develop their own fonts, so-called typography branding because fonts can represent the brand and company's image just like a logo. By unifying the font used in all marketing materials, companies can ensure that the message they want to convey is consistently delivered. Unlike simple text, visible fonts can be perceived as a design element, so using a font that fits the brand can have the same effect as showing a logo. The effect can be maximized if the company also writes the message they want to convey in the same font.

 

 

 

Hyosung Group plans to start typographic branding by developing a new brand font exclusively for Hyosung Group. We aim to unify the corporate image of Hyosung Group through the Brand New Hyosung font and establish a unique image for Hyosung Group. Through the Brand New Hyosung font, which embodies the sincerity of the four core values of Hyosung Way - Global Excellence, Innovation, Accountability, and Integrity for the future - we plan to consistently convey the image of Hyosung. Hyosung Group has high expectations for using an exclusive font to convey the message and image that Hyosung wants to convey consistently through the brand-new Hyosung font.
