8. Iconography

Simple icons. Built for clarity.

Uniform stroke weight, simple shapes, and a neutral style ensure clarity at any size.

  • Use a single, consistent stroke weight

  • Prefer simple outlines over filled or detailed shapes

  • Avoid shadows, gradients, textures, or decorative effects

  • Icons should remain clear at small sizes

  • Use icons to support content, not replace it

9. Image & Video Style

Real people.
Real neighborhoods.

Style Tips:

  • Use natural light, urban backdrops

  • Show everyday joy, helpfulness, connection

  • Avoid overly staged or stocky looks

10. Sample Use Cases

How ivault is meant to look.

ivault Design Principles

Clarity before cleverness

If a message isn’t immediately understood, it doesn’t work.
We explain unfamiliar concepts simply and explicitly, especially peer-to-peer renting and local sharing.

Design with restraint

We avoid visual noise.
Whitespace, calm layouts, and simple compositions create confidence and trust.
Rounded corners on most of the elements feel soft and calm.

Typography leads

Type is a primary design element, not decoration.
Large, legible headlines and clear hierarchy do most of the work.

Color has a job

Color is used deliberately to frame content, guide attention, and establish hierarchy, never just to decorate.

The object is the hero

Products are shown clearly, honestly, and without distraction.
No clutter. No unnecessary props. The item speaks for itself.

Be explicit

We say “rent,” we say “local,” and we show real outcomes.
We don’t assume prior knowledge, and we don’t hide meaning behind metaphors.

Design for scale

Everything must work across ads, product screens, and investor decks.
If it doesn’t scale cleanly, it doesn’t belong in the system.

Confidence over urgency

We don’t shout, exaggerate, or push. ivault communicates with calm authority and lets clarity build trust.
