Autonomy Capital

Brand identity and website for a global investment firm challenging the status quo

Autonomy Capital

Autonomy Capital is a global investment firm that invests in what challenges the status quo. In 2018, they partnered with Thackway McCord to develop a modern brand identity and digital presence that reflect their innovative investment philosophy.

As the design, web, and strategy lead, I facilitated brand definition workshops and collaborated closely with Autonomy's marketing team to guide the new direction. Our goal was to create a cohesive visual system and responsive website that communicate trust, clarity, and a forward-thinking approach.

The clean typography and restrained color palette emphasize the firm's commitment to transparency, while subtle motion graphics add a sense of momentum. We extended the brand into a suite of materials, including business cards, reports, and presentation decks, ensuring consistency across all touchpoints.

I authored comprehensive brand guidelines covering logo usage, typography, color palette, and application examples across various media, enabling Autonomy's team to maintain the new look consistently.
