Brand & Visual Language — V.012

Amber light over Vilnius

A warm, folk-modern identity for the city of amber, brick gothic, and the tiny republic of Užupis. Honey tones, ink lines, woven Baltic patterns.

01 / Colour

Amber, brick & moss

Warm aged paper as the canvas; roasted ink for structure. Amber leads as the brand colour, folk red and rust add heat, and teal and moss keep it grounded in the Baltic landscape.

02 / Typography

Fraunces & Archivo

A characterful optical serif for display — old-style warmth with a wink in the italics — set against the clean grotesque Archivo, with Space Mono reserved for data and labels.

Vilnius rewards the slow traveller — courtyards open onto courtyards, bakeries hum past midnight, and the amber light at dusk turns every brick wall gold.

03 / Components

Cards & buttons

05 / Forms

Plan your visit

Controls share the ink-border language. Focus casts an amber shadow; selections turn moss green and add a check, so state never relies on colour alone.

Optional — we'll tailor the route to whatever you tell us.

06 / Spacing

A 4-point weave

Spacing steps follow a nonlinear 4px scale, echoing the diagonal rhythm of the woven Lithuanian sash that threads through the whole system.
