English	In this brand upgrade, we simplified the design, optimized the display effect of graphics in various scenes, and made the shape more full and capable. Use pictures to make the overall visual impression more lively and refreshing. In addition, NYGDESIGN used daily design drafts and notes as inspiration to create a special set of alphanumeric characters with handwritten structures. The design is integrated into the layout of the title words, allowing these characters to appear randomly in the title layout. This breaks the rules and makes no mistakes. The rhythm composed of serifs keeps NYGDESIGN’s design language fresh at all times.
Native	这次的品牌升级中，我们简化了牛油果中间的迷宫结构和牛油果的外形。优化了图形在各种场景的显示效果，并使造型更加饱满干练。此外，我们将 NYGDESIGN 本来的暗红色调换成了鲜艳利落的亮红，并增补了12款鲜艳的辅助色搭配主色调应用于文创延展内容，以图将整体的视觉印象打造得更加活泼清爽。此外，我们以平时的设计草稿和笔记为灵感，为 NYGDESIGN 特制了一套带有手写结构的特殊英数字符，一方面是在字体中融入平时我们的书写特色，同时也代表对常态的反思和挑战。我们以这套字体重新设计 NYGDESIGN 的品牌标准字，并贯穿到标题字的排版中，让这些字符在标题排版中随机出现，此打破常规无衬线体构成的节奏，让 NYGDESIGN 的设计语言时刻保持新鲜感。这套字符代表着 NYGDESIGN 不甘于常规、勇于质疑和挑战的态度，也是在提醒团队持续探索新的可能性。
