Quiet luxury in black and bone

No menu bar and no photographs. The firm’s name is the headline, and a numbered index runs down the right edge.

Alera Group

Local teams, national depth

Employee benefits, property and casualty, and financial services, handled by a team near you and backed by specialists from across the country.

Talk to a local team

Many firms, one group

About this direction

What it is
One near-black page in warm bone type, the same by day and by night. Chapters open with ringed numerals, and the practices sit in a numbered index instead of a menu bar.
What it says about Alera Group
Three fine rings slide together and interlock: independent local firms, joined into one group. Further down the home page, six rings close into a single chain.
Who it suits
Business owners, families and plan sponsors who expect a private, considered service and want a firm that reads as settled and sure of itself.
How it feels
Quiet and unhurried. Hairline rules, small serif capitals and wide margins, with nothing competing for attention.
The live Employee Benefits page in black and bone: EMPLOYEE BENEFITS in large serif capitals beside the numbered index, with 03. Benefits marked as the current page, over the page’s short introduction.
The Employee Benefits page

An annual report, drawn in ink

A cream page set like a printed report, with pen-and-ink drawings that draw themselves as you read.

Local teams. National depth. A complete plan for each client.

Employee benefits, property and casualty insurance, and financial services.

Talk to a local team

About this direction

What it is
A calm, centered column on cream paper: a serif wordmark, a four-line headline in capitals and a fine drawing of a sunlit office atrium, with teal hairlines marking the structure.
What it says about Alera Group
Each drawing inks itself in order, structure first, the way a careful plan comes together around a client. The three practices share one row: one relationship.
Who it suits
HR and finance leaders, plan sponsors and risk managers who read closely and want each topic explained in plain terms.
How it feels
Warm, orderly and reassuring, like a well-made annual report, on the same cream page in light and dark mode.
The live Employee Benefits page on cream paper: the masthead, the EMPLOYEE BENEFITS heading and its introduction beside an ink drawing of a benefits office reception, and the page’s own index row: Solutions, By size, How we work, Compliance.

A survey map of local offices

A printed survey sheet that leads with the question many visitors arrive with: where is my local office?

About this direction

What it is
A sand-colored survey sheet: green contour lines, gray roads, towns drawn as clusters of small squares and a white search pill at the center. The navigation runs along the bottom edge, like a map’s key.
What it says about Alera Group
Many local places, joined by roads into one network. Red pins mark the two places this preview names: the Deerfield, Illinois headquarters and Atlanta, Georgia.
Who it suits
Employers, families and individuals who want a team nearby, and visitors who start by looking for the closest office.
How it feels
Practical and grounded, like a well-kept map. The search answers on the page with the firm’s own office details: in this preview, the Deerfield headquarters.
The live Employee Benefits page as a survey sheet: the white top bar, the title Employee Benefits and its introduction over faint contour lines, a green contour divider, and the charcoal navigation bar along the bottom.
