I decided to research Coca-Cola’s brand guidelines as they are one of the most popular brands in the world, their brand is very recognisable worldwide so I want to see what went in to making the brand as unique as it is.

Coca-Cola owns their unique shade of red, which is present on all Coke cans/bottles and merchandise. They use this particular colour of red to differentiate from other brands which makes the brand so recognisable to consumers.

The colour that they use is #F40009

The typeface that they use for the Coca-Cola wordmark is Spencerian Script which is one of the most recognised trademarked typeface worldwide, Bold and always recognised as Coca-Cola.

They use a different typeface for the rest of the marketing:
