AnVa Consulting
Building credibility without the usual signals.
AnVa Consulting helps organisations navigate regulatory, legal and governance complexity. Trust, in their world, comes from precision rather than personality. We built a brand, visual identity and website that let expertise lead.

What we achieved
We delivered a cohesive visual system and a custom WordPress website that performs consistently across modern browsers and devices.
The Reality
High stakes, precise regulations, and an absolute focus on expertise.
This was a project about building a recognisable, credible brand without emotional storytelling or personal narratives, and without an existing visual foundation to build on.
AnVa Consulting came to us as a Croatian consultancy helping companies, associations and organisations navigate intellectual property, legal obligations, governance, ESG principles and digital transformation, combining legal expertise, business strategy and technology to help clients make informed decisions in complex environments.
When you operate within the legal profession, you play by strict rules. The code of conduct governing legal practice in Croatia restricts personal advertising, meaning the founders’ personal stories couldn’t be part of the brand. Given that constraint, we built a system where the firm’s expertise became the face of the brand.
We build brand and digital presence from the ground up: brand strategy, visual identity, and a custom WordPress website designed to communicate their expertise through clarity, structure and consistency.
| Constraint | Design response |
| No founder imagery allowed | Identity built on typography, colour and structure |
| No existing visual system | Complete brand built from scratch |
| Abstract, non-visual subject matter | Clarity becomes the visual language |
The Shift
Substance became the strategy.
AnVa’s early direction leaned towards bold, emotionally expressive references; the kind of visual language that works naturally in some industries. A firm working in environmental protection, for example, has it easy: people are instinctively drawn to nature and wildlife, and that emotional connection does half the design work on its own. Business consulting doesn’t have that advantage.
Governance, compliance and ESG strategy don’t come with ready-made visuals. There is nothing obvious to illustrate, nothing inherently picturesque to lean on.
So instead of forcing a visual metaphor, we focused on building a system that could communicate expertise on its own.
We let colour, typography, and structure take over the lead role. When you choose and apply them with discipline, they carry the entire narrative, clarity, and trust on their own.
The work begins where recognition stops being immediate.
The Build
Consistency became the statement.
01 | Brand
We developed the visual identity from scratch, including the logo, supporting graphic elements and branded social media assets, built entirely without founder imagery, in line with the constraints of legal advertising.
02 | Product
We designed the interface in Figma and developed a fully custom WordPress theme to structure complex consulting services into a clear, navigable experience. The information hierarchy helps users quickly understand AnVa’s expertise.
03 | Engineering
We implemented the approved designs as a custom WordPress build, testing across modern browsers and devices before deploying to the client’s server. The result is a consistent experience across desktop, tablet and mobile.
Impact
A compliant brand built for enterprise trust.
AnVa Consulting now has a cohesive brand and digital presence built around a single visual system.
The identity creates consistency across all touchpoints, while the website translates complex consulting services into a clearer, more navigable structure. Together, they enable the firm to communicate expertise with confidence while remaining fully aligned with the professional standards of their industry.
The Reality Check
True design value lives beneath the visual surface.
We hit a breakthrough when we stopped searching for visual metaphors and started extracting maximum value from what we actually had: typography, graphic elements, structure, AnVa’s deep regulatory expertise, and our own experience designing for complex, regulated industries.
Once we focused on the nature of the work itself, the design became clearer: a system built to make expertise easier to recognise instead of harder to explain.
Some values are invisible, but expensive to skip, the kind of hidden tax brands pay when design isn’t built with discipline.
If your expertise is difficult to visualise, that's exactly where design does its most important work.
