Peace, love and
good vibes
Viber asked us to create a new brand identity, to propel their international mobile business and set them apart from other feature-led messaging platforms.
We created a system that’s rooted in a fun, friendly positioning. Retaining the original logo and brand colours, we devised a comprehensive new global toolkit, featuring positive imagery, a new multi-language typeface and Viber’s own set of emojis – placing the new identity at the heart of audience conversations.
The result is a global brand with local flavour. There’s enough flex for local marketing teams to support their social channels and the international brand to push global campaigns – driving user growth at all times.
Since the rebrand launched in August 2014,
Viber’s global audience has
grown by nearly 300%,
from 300 million
to over 800 million
A complete system
We developed a wide-ranging brand system: messaging, a bespoke typeface, photography, illustration, textures and emojis. It’s a system that’s all about people’s lives and how they express themselves.

Upfront and open
Viber is a fun, flirty and ‘living’ brand that sparks conversation. Combining bold language, expressive doodles and fun emojis, we’ve developed a persona that’s positive in outlook and confident in its own skin.

A brand for every touchpoint
This is a brand designed to work internationally and mobile-first. To give Viber its own voice, we created a bespoke headline typeface across 20 languages, complimented by textures, emojis and illustrations. The result is an agile, youth-focused brand with the rigour of something more grown-up.

Real users, real life
The image treatment style and detailed guidelines we set allow each territory to create its own version of the photography, giving the brand a local flavour. Different markets pick up on events, moods and fashions unique to their audiences, so Viber always feels relevant and natural, wherever it is in the world.
