Guidelines
1. Typography
In the business of stories, words are integral. Typography concerns the way
these words look, serving as a core element of our brand identity. In Story
House Egmont we have chosen to work with free fonts in our daily work and
general communication, which means you do not need a license to work with
our typefaces Times New Roman and Arial.

External use of brand typography
For all external communication prepared by employees – such as
presentations, partner material or general information – the free fonts
specified in the typography guide are available for use.
If you need material that represents Story House Egmont’s corporate brand
(e.g., branded merchandise, corporate-level presentations or officially printed
material), contact the Communications Team at SHEcomm@egmont.com.
They are responsible for corporate brand communication and will provide
guidance and production support.
2. Colors
2.1 Primary colors
At Story House Egmont, our primary colors are black and white.
This minimalist palette reflects our role as a diverse media and lifestyle house
— a stage for a wide range of colorful, creative and distinctive brands.
By keeping our own identity visually neutral, we allow the individuality of each
brand to shine. Our black and white design system ensures clarity, contrast and
flexibility across all touch points, while providing a consistent and confident
foundation for our portfolio.
2.2 Secondary color palette
Our secondary color palette follows the same pairing principle as the Egmont
master brand – using color pairs with light and dark tones designed to work
together. At Story House Egmont, we apply this principle in a more subdued
and varied expression. The muted tones support our black and white core
identity and add nuance, warmth and versatility to our branded materials
without competing with the visual identities of our portfolio brands.
3. Payoff
We bring stories to life is the essence of Egmont and Story House Egmont.
In one sentence, this payoff expresses what is at the very heart of our brand,
linking all our companies and activities together with one common mission.
We share the payoff across the Story House Egmont portfolio, and you will
find it embedded in the PowerPoint template, the email signature, on our
website, and other key touchpoints.

4. Image character
It might be useful for you to know how we work with images within
our brand identity; Below you can get an introduction to our image
principles, covering image character and working with stock.
4.1 Authentic
Our images feel genuine and real. We document products, people
and environments as they are in the real world. We do not use artificial
staging to achieve images but rather capture moments as they happen.
Showing real stories being brought to life.

4.2 Human
We aim to bring out the personality of people in our images,
particularly those of children and young people we support.
Subjects are comfortable and relaxed.

4.3 Product first
Our products are our most important asset and should be highlighted
as much as possible.
We use images and video from our digital products.
These are shown as they are – without editing or filtering.
We photograph our physical products in the real world through simply-styled
set-ups in rooms and human spaces. Customers are photographed using and
enjoying both digital and physical products in real life situations.
We also use images from the image libraries of our catalogue of businesses
whilst ensuring they still work within our identity.

4.4 Optimistic
Our images should feel energetic and joyful.

4.5 Modern
We embrace eclecticism within image selection – using varied subject matter
and image framing together to create interesting compositions.
We use both a natural lighting style as well as flash photography to create a
diverse and confident expression.

Working with external
stock imagery
When it is not possible to use our own content, stock photography from
external sources may be used. However, great care must be taken to
ensure that the imagery feels like a natural part of the Story House Egmont
universe.
