Who we are

Evessio is event management software for awards and conferences — one platform that runs a programme end to end, from the first entry to the final applause.

Positioning & story

Most teams run a programme across four or five disconnected tools. Evessio replaces all of them with a single, connected platform — for every team involved.

Typography

Two typefaces do all the work: Fraunces for expressive display, Figtree for clear, friendly text.

Display · Fraunces

beautifully
Aa Bb Cc · 0123456789 · & ? !

High-contrast serif at black (900) weight for headlines and pull quotes.

Text & UI · Figtree
The quick
events team
Aa Bb Cc · 0123456789 · & ? !

Geometric humanist sans for body, UI and labels. Weights 400–900.

DO
  • One Fraunces headline per view — let it breathe.
  • Body copy in Figtree at comfortable size and line-height.
  • Short, punchy fragments for impact lines.
DON'T
  • Set body text or long paragraphs in Fraunces.
  • Use more than two weights of Fraunces in one layout.
  • Set long phrases in all-caps.
06

Voice & tone

We sound like a sharp, warm colleague who has run a hundred events — confident, plain-spoken, never salesy. "No pitch. No pressure. Just a conversation."

Principles

Human, not corporate. Write like a person talking to a person.
Clear over clever. Plain words, short sentences, no jargon.
Outcomes first. Lead with the benefit, then the feature.
Confident, not boastful. Back claims with real numbers.
Rhythm & punch. Short fragments. Em-dashes for a beat.

SAY
  • "From the first entry to the final applause."
  • "One login. Every team. Zero gaps."
  • "Days not weeks."
DON'T SAY
  • "Leverage our best-in-class synergistic solution."
  • "Revolutionary, world-class, game-changing…"

British English — programme, recognised, organise, colour. Sentence case for headings and buttons. Numerals for stats.

07

Imagery, iconography & illustration

Imagery shows the product doing real work and real teams getting results — confident, bright and uncluttered.

Illustration library

Two complementary styles are available — use one consistently within a single piece; don't mix sets on the same page.

Set 1 — Flat geometric (primary)

Bold, flat, geometric scenes in brand purple and teal with magenta highlights. The primary choice for marketing pages, features and section headers.

UI, buttons & gradients

Clean, rounded components with a clear hierarchy of action — one primary action per view.

Buttons

Talk to an expert   See it in action →   View plans →

Primary — magenta fill, white text, 9px radius. Secondary — ghost/outline. Tertiary — deep purple. Sentence case, often closed with "→".

Gradient (graduated) surfaces

Graduated boxes blend two brand colours for hero panels, feature blocks and stat callouts. Keep gradients within the brand family; reserve purple→magenta for high-energy moments. Set type in white and check contrast.

10 · INDEPENDENT STYLE

What's New

An independent, editorial style for communicating new and upcoming features and releases. It shares the Evessio fonts but uses a warmer, standalone palette so product news feels distinct from the core brand.

⚠︎ Use this style only for the What's New / roadmap context — release notes, "now live", and "coming soon". Don't bring the coral accent or cream backgrounds into core brand, marketing of established features, or the logo.
