The Oh Hi brand
How Oh Hi looks, sounds and behaves, from the website to the name card on the table. Everything here is free to use for writing about us or partnering with us.
An evening that feels like being introduced
Oh Hi is speed dating for people who are tired of apps. The brand borrows from good manners: a host who introduces you, a name card, a gentle bell, an envelope in the morning. Calm, organised and warm, like a good restaurant rather than a nightclub.
Why Oh hi!
It's the first thing you say when someone catches your eye across a room: a little surprised, a little pleased. Friendly before it's clever. Next to the search phrase it reads as Oh Hi | Speed Dating Sydney.
Write it Oh Hi in sentences. The wordmark sets hi! in italic, with the exclamation mark. Never all capitals in body copy.

The seal
Our stamp of approval, like the wax seal on an invitation. Use it on name cards, envelopes, stickers, the back of the match card and as a sign-off on social posts.
Meet Wick
Wick is a small candle who hosts the room. A little shy, very kind, always the first to say hello. Wick is the warm light on the table that makes a stranger feel like a guest.
- Use Wick for friendly moments: how it works, reminders, the thank-you after booking, the 404 page, stickers.
- Don't use Wick on serious things: refunds, safety, the code of conduct.
- Wick never speaks in speech bubbles. A handwritten aside nearby is enough.
Paper, ink and a little blush
Paper and ink do most of the work. Lime is the one loud colour: it marks the next action and nothing else. Click a swatch to copy its hex code.
Like a good host: warm, clear, never pushy

Small things that make it ours
No invented guests or reviews
No testimonials, quotes or ratings until they're real and we have permission.
Real seat counts only
The numbers on an evening are the real numbers. No fake scarcity.
Women's comfort first
When a decision is unclear, choose what makes a woman arriving alone feel safest.
Lime means “do this”
One lime action per screen. If everything is lime, nothing is.
