Brand Asset Naming Conventions
Consistency fails when people grab the wrong file. Naming conventions are boring—but they’re one of the fastest ways to reduce mistakes across a small team.
Simple rules
Rules
- One source of truth folder (don’t duplicate master assets across multiple places).
- Use consistent components in names: brand, asset type, variant, color, size, format, version.
- Avoid spaces and special characters; use hyphens.
- Include version numbers when assets change (v1, v2).
