PRIMARY LOGO This is the main logo that will be placed across various platforms (including website, social media presence, ads, and other materials) to represent your brand. Using this design consistently will help audiences easily identify your work and services. Applying the logo with care and respect to these guidelines is essential to the professionalism of the brand.

This primary version of the logo is the horizontal wordmark, so it’s perfect to use when space is limited, and your brand name must be clearly displayed. For example, display this version of the logo on primary touchpoints - business cards, presentations, and printed materials.

SECONDARY LOGOS These logo variations, or secondary marks, are used to supplement the brand in various instances. Use these variations in place of the primary logo, and never directly next to the primary logo, as it is repetitive to the audience.

Proper use of these elements is important for displaying your brand properly and included is a breakdown of when to use these logos in place of your primary logo.

A . H O R I Z O N TA L (O R “ W O R D M A R K ”) L O G O : This is a wide form of the primary logo. Use this logo when vertical space is limited, and a more horizontal application is appropriate. For example, advertisements, website navigation, etc.

B . E M B L E M (O R “ B A D G E ”) : Use this when the primary logo is not necessary, but brand name should be displayed. Use this mark when viewers are familiar with the brand. For example, use this logo on the second page of printed materials, letterheads, presentations, or as a watermark on photos.

C. MARK: Use this design when the primary logo is not necessary, or if the brand name is already displayed in plain text. For example, in social media profiles, favicons, or icons on website.

ALTERNATIVE VARIATIONS When the primary and secondary logos are not used, these logo variations, or alternative logos, may be used to supplement the brand in a more informal setting. Use these variations in place of the primary logo, and never directly next to the primary logo, as it is repetitive to the audience. These designs may represent a subsidiary section of the brand, or they may used instead of the primary designs, as a more casual and fun approach on marketing materials.

A. MONOGRAM: Similar to the plain mark, use this design when the primary logo is not necessary, or if the brand name is already displayed in plain text. For example, in social media profiles, favicon or icons on website.

B . A LT E R N AT E B A D G E / M O N O G R A M : Use this when the primary logo is not necessary, but brand name should be displayed. Use this mark when viewers are familiar with the brand. For example, use this logo on the second page of printed materials or presentations, or as a watermark on photos.

C & D. A LT E R N AT E M A R K S / A C C E N T M A R K S Similar to the emblem/badge use this design when the primary logo is not necessary, or if the brand name is already displayed in plain text. Use this mark when viewers are familiar with the brand. For example, use this logo on the second page of printed materials, letterheads, presentations, or as a watermark on photos.

The primary logo should never be smaller than 0.50" tall when scaled down.

When placing logos with other content, always leave clear space around the logo for cleanliness. This space isolates the design without allowing other content to overcrowd, clash with, or diminish the integrity of the design.

BRANDED ASSETS Along with your logos, you’ll also receive a branded pattern file. To use as an accent piece in print materials, on your website, or in documents.

You will also receive a few social media profile photos to choose from. The social media profile photos and website has also been mocked up in this guide.

FINAL FILES

You’ve received several final files of your new logo assets. This allows for your logo to always look it’s best in a variety of uses.

The logos you receive are broken down into two categories, print vs. web, because the color profiles are slightly different for each application. When printing designs, a digital printer typically uses four process colors Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black (CMYK) to create the colors in the design.

When viewing your designs online or on a screen (video, website, TV, phone, tables, etc.), these devices use three colors, Red, Green, 26

and Blue (RGB) to create the colors in the design.When designing, I try to select solid coated Pantone colors from the Pantone Color Matching System (PMS). Pantone is a largely a standardized brand and color reproduction system that makes your color with one special ink formula. Printing Pantone colors is only available through specific professional printing methods, therefore, we translate the Pantone colors into process print (CMYK) and web (RGB) color values to recreate that color on a variety of applications.
