Brand Guidelines Logo Variations
The brand has three versions of a logo. Blue, White, Black and Flat. To increase the weight and the visibility of RSM brand, whenever possible, the color version, or the white version should be applied. When it’s impossible to do it, there is the flat option. This one should only be applied when there are limitations in the use of color, or when the printing process demands it (like print on wood, metal, or vinyl), whilst preserving the best reading of the logo. The black version is for Black & White prints, only.
Brand Guidelines Safety Area
To preserve the good reading of the logo, a security area was defined around it. This area is defined by the area from the top of the eagles head, to the point of it’s beak. The minimum free space applies to all versions of the logo and is intended to protect the logo of any other element that is near and can prevent or influence their reading and visibility. Whenever possible, the margin should be increased. At some points, the security area in the horizontal version can be counted from the text block and not from the head. This, heavily depends on the amount of information on the background of where the logo will be applied.
Brand Guidelines Proportions
The logo was created with a proportion. The creation of those proportions and the measurement units used to do it, give it a sense of harmony. These are measurements to be respected. In the Vertical Version, the RSM Protection stays inside an imaginary box between the centre of the 3rd star and the 3rd feather. The space between the eagle and the text block is that of a doubled star (star at 200% ou star x 2). The space between RSM and Protection is that of an horizontal T. In the Horizontal Version, the text block is the same size as the shield/wing height. The distance between the eagle and the text block is the PR on Protection. The space between RSM and Protection is again, an horizontal T.

Whenever possible the RSM logo should be on a plain color.
Brand Guidelines Photographic Backgrounds
If the photography has no plain colors, the right thing to do would be the creation of a white/blue bar for the blue/white version of the logo, respectively, as exampled here.
