2.1 The Logo Usage Always use master artwork when reproducing any logo design. It should never be recreated under any circumstances. Always ensure you are using the correct artwork for the application. When reproducing any logo elements, only the original high resolution or vector graphic files shall be used - logos should not be taken from this document. 2.1 The Logo Usage Brand-identity Guidelines 6.

x Logotype Logomark x Exclusion Zone Make sure that text or other design elements do not encroach upon the logo. x x The marked space should always be given to let the logo breathe, free from distraction. Reproduction size x Logotype Logomark x In the primary logo format must be adhered to so that legibilty is retained. x x In exceptional circumstances where space restrictions are limited, adjustments may have to be made to balance the shape and visibility. The logo should be used in the first instance with the Strapline of Distributed Cryptography Company. 2.1 The Logo Usage Brand-identity Guidelines 7.

Wrong! The logo has become distorted from it s designed aspect ratio, therefore stretching or squshing the shape and text. If the space is restrictive, the scale of the logo (not the dimensions) must be adjusted to fit. Correct! The logo s shape is consistent with the initial design, retaining balance and legibility. 2.1 The Logo Usage Brand-identity Guidelines 8.

Wrong! The backdrop for the logo s placement is too similar to the primary colour - it lacks visibilty and contrast. To fix this problem, you can either select a contrasting base colour, or switch to one of the secondary colours assigned to the logo. Correct! The logo is clear and visible, set in primary colours onto a backdrop which shows contrast. Although the backdrop is not white, the colours have been adjusted accordingly to work with the design. 2.1 The Logo Usage Brand-identity Guidelines 9.
