Formal VS Informal Communication

What is a 'House Style'?
A house style is a set of rules which state how all documents and written communication from a business should be formatted.It will govern things such as- the colours to be used- the font style and size- where the logo should appear- whether text should be right, centre or fully justified- how the address and contact details should
be presented

House styles are needed:
- To ensure consistency across all documents
- To support brand recognition (people know the documents belong to a particular organisation)
-To reduce the amount of time staff spend setting up and formatting documents
- To reduce the risk of mistakes e.g. address being mispelt, logo being omitted
