OSE Branding

Basics

• This page goes over OSE (and other sub-groups (see OBI Aesthetic ) ) 's "Brand" / "Branding"
• Mainly in an effort to asses it's current status, then determine potential improvements

Colors/Coloring

Context

• If you look at a "John Deer" device, or a "Ryboi" device, the color scheme makes it easily recognisable
• Thus if all (at least more "official" than a fork) OSE Devices have a similar color scheme in their outer layers/finish, this may help OSE's Branding
  • IE people look at an Open Source Hand Drill at a jobsite and go "Oh, that's that "OSE" one right?" etc thus facilitating some Peer to Peer Marketing

Overall Design

• The way things look, such as a "regular" pickup truck, or Tesla's "Cybertruck"
• Typically angular vs smooth corners
• I think Gridbeam will constitute this for most OSE vehicles
• For 3D Printed Hand Tools etc This Sill is Undetermined

Sound Design

Context

• This is more subtle that visual etc, but it does exist
• Examples Are:
  • The Sound of Various ICEs (A "Harley Davison Motorcycle" etc)
  • Software sounds (Such as stock ringtones or message alerts on Iphones etc, or the ALO "You Got Mail")
    • These are subtle, but due to repition become meaningful. Hence why things like "Glitch-Hop" and "Vaporwave" exist.
