Your personal brand

Colors, a header and a signature for your own projects, shown in the top bar to the people on them.

Your personal brand works like a firm's brand, for the projects you own yourself. It's off until you turn it on.

Find it under Your brand on your account page, below your profile.

Turn it on #

  1. Pick one of the six starters: Graphite, Blueprint, Brick, Sage, Ochre or Ink.
  2. Click Start my brand.

Then change anything you like and click Save brand.

Colors #

The same five roles and the same two checks as a firm's brand: text must reach 4.5:1 on the background and the surface, and the accent is shaded in any theme where it falls under 3:1 on the top bar. See Firm brand: colors.

Your icon is your avatar. An uploaded picture shows in the top bar; otherwise your initials do.

The header is up to 24 characters in small caps. Leave it blank to use your name.

Signature #

Up to six lines for your address and contact details, and one license line. Only you see it.

Who sees it #

  • People you added to one of your own projects, in the top bar while they work on it.
  • Anyone who opens a view-only link to one of your schemes, in the top bar.
  • Your public profile, when it's on: the header and accent.

Projects owned by a firm show the firm's brand instead.

Turn it off #

Click Turn off my brand. Its colors, header and signature are deleted, and the top bar shows ours again. Your brand is in your data export and is deleted with your account.
