The design system of STROOM, a fictional concept study.

Made with the system

Brief

Design question: How do you show speed when your product makes no sound?

STROOM is a fictional Dutch maker of light electric scooters. Its first model, the S1, does 45 km/h and charges in three hours. There was a name, a prototype and a launch date. No logo, no colours, no voice. And a market full of brands that all look the same: white, rounded and friendly.

Design thinking

Everything leans forward. An extremely wide, italic typeface that shoots past the edge of every surface. Large figures as the lead actors. Safety orange as the main colour, black as asphalt. And a system of speed lines that can replace photography: every piece feels fast, even without the product in shot.

Design principles

  1. Always forward

    Type, lines and arrows point right. Nothing stands still.

  2. Figures are the hero

    Speed, range and charge time are as large as the surface allows.

  3. Orange is attention

    Orange surfaces carry the message. Black and chalk white bring calm.

  4. Lines replace photos

    No product photo? Then the speed lines take over the image.

Applications

The same identity, each time with its own composition. Designed for:

  • Launch billboard
  • Product page
  • Ride app
  • Street poster
  • Instagram launch
  • Sticker sheet
  • Charging point
  • Spec sheet

A working digital application

The ride app shows what matters at a glance: your speed, your battery and how far you can still go. The same wide figures as on the billboard, but in your hand.

What we keep

  • The name STROOM
  • The model name S1

What we add

  • Logo and streak mark
  • Wide italic typeface and figure style
  • Speed lines as an image system
  • Campaign, app, stickers and charging point
  • Templates and instructions for AI tools

The system behind the work

Everything you see above is also in the library: with rules, variants and technical details. So a new maker, agency or agent can carry on straight away.

A new application, with the same rules

Brief: “Create an Instagram post for the S1 launch, with a long title and no product photo.”

  1. Pick the "launch post" recipe: orange surface, black type.
  2. Without a photo, the speed lines fill the top half.
  3. The title sits at the bottom in the wide italic, five lines at most.
  4. Logo bottom left, call to action bottom right. Always.
