Variation between visual and product brand

I think you will find that this is the case with a lot of identity and branding design especially in a large corporate environment. I have worked for a few both full time and freelance and have I found that if they have a strong brand identity then they usually have a very strong style guide. With this it includes these structured guidelines around what the environment should look like, where logos can go, what pantone colors they have to be, etc.

I would suggest looking into if they have a style guide. If they do not then it is the perfect opportunity to create on.
