Final Logo

Logo & usage Threeblue’s logo usage: Threeblue’s lettering, the tagline and the logo icon. These elements should never be changed. Position, size, and color, along with the spatial and proportional relationships of Threeblue’s logo elements, are predetermined and should not be altered.

Our primary colors are a combination of

Our unique color pallete allows

PANTONE P 106-8 C and PANTONE P 104-10 C .

the same colors to be used on darker backgrounds and images.

It is intended to be used on lighter backgrounds and images in order to maintain legibility.

20

Black & grayscale Sometimes, often due to production costs, only one color of ink is available and so the Logo must be reproduced using only one color. In this scenario, the logo must be used following the convention of using a light color type on a dark background or in a dark color type on a light background. The logotype and the symbol must be clearly distinguishable from the background color.

You must honor the Threeblue’s Logo palette when possible, using black or white if necessary.

Combination of 90% and 70% Grey Tones Combination of 100% White and 20% Grey

21

Construction & clearspace Threeblue’s logo requires serperation from the other elements around it. The space required on all sides is roughly eqivalent to the letter width of the logo type.

1/2 x

It never should be less than that. The logo must always fit into the clearspace area and can not be intervened by other graphical elements which could hinder legibility of the brand.

Please note that text or pictorial figures, which have strong impact or impression, should not be placed near the logo, even though you keep the isolation area blank.

Size is the simplest way to create contrast between different typographic elements in your design. With 5 levels of typography, the font size generally starts out largest on top (level one; your most important information) and decreases in size as you move down the page.

Layout, for both print and screen, is one of the most important aspects of graphic design.

This fonts should be used in all creative minds communications to project a consistent visual identity. This includes promotional materials, advertising, digital assets, and printed materials.

The font Lato is available in 10 weights. We use 3 of them. The regular, italic and bold versions.

Our color system is made up of carefully selected colors that showcase what Threeblue stands for,

Mobile Web Design General Branding on the web is about function as well as style. That is why consistency is essential throughout the pages of a website, with navigation bars, headers and footers, and color schemes all serving to orient the visitor.

In this way, the graphics enable the visitor to find information quickly and easily.

Fonts The fonts SF Compact and Lato can also be used on the web. The Compact font is always used for the big headlines, Lato for the basic text and smaller headlines.

36

Social Media

Facebook and Instagram story Our Social media applications are an important way to tell our

brand story to internal and external stakeholders. The following is a small sample of ways to execute our new brand identity.

The size of Facebook banners should always be 851 x 315 px and the size of the Instagram story should be 1080 x 1920 px.
