Buyingyacht Brand Guidelines

BRAND GUIDELINES

Brand Guidelines (also commonly referred to as “brand standards”, “style guide” or “brand book”) are a set of rules that explain how our brand works, they take its heart and soul and translate it into design by providing very specific instructions about how tangible elements of our brand should be used in all forms of communications.

We need these guidelines because they make it possible for our brand to move through the three primary steps of brand building: consistency, persistence, and restraint.

Wordmark: Buyingyacht.com Fonts: Montserrat Black Colors: Light blue: #5ddbdd Navy: #141d47

LOGO VARIATION

Lockups: • Stacked: as the primary lockup.

• Horizontal: as the secondary lockup.

Color sets: Primary Color Set: Light blue and navy.

Reversed Color Set: Light blue and white.

Monochromatic Color sets: - White.

- Grayscale (mainly used in black and white prints).

Most of the time, we will stick to our primary logo, but there will be times when it makes more sense to use secondary options for any variation of the ideal set of circumstances required by the primary logo to be displayed properly. These secondary logos still feel cohesive and at home with the rest of our identity, but are used on more of an as-needed basis.

To maintain art integrity, it must be reproduced from original files.

2.3

LOGO ICON

Due to the distinguishable appearance of our logo icon, we occasionally use it separately from the other elements in many applications, especially when we have a restricted space to use (favicon for example).

Color options: - Light blue.

- White.

- Gray.

LOGO BACKGROUNDS

The following represents the ideal logo-background matching. The main rule is that the logo must be clearely readable, and the primary color set should be used whenever possible, so the designer has the freedom of choice with respect to these rules. * This rule applies to all logo options of the same color set.

2.5

LOGO CLEAR SPACE

Whenever we use the logo, it should be surrounded with clear space to ensure its visibility and impact. No graphic elements of any kind should invade this zone.

The following is used as a scale to measure the space to always leave from all sides of the logo as shown in the scheme beside: - Stacked lockup: X= 1/3 the logo’s height.

- Horizontal lockup & icon: Y= the height of the logo. * This rule applies to all logo options of the same lockup.

2.6

LOGO MINIMUM SIZE

To make sure our logo is always visible we've determined a minimum display size for the digital usage (in pixels) and printed material (in millimeters and inches).

The minimum sizes described are applicable for displays of 72 DPI. If the display screens have higher DPI (retina display) minimum size should be adapted proportionally. * This rule applies to all logo options of the same lockup.
