Use of the logotype The precise position and proportion of all the logotype elements is fixed and must always be reproduced in the set relationship shown here. The elements must never be re-drawn or modified in any way.
Printing the logotype The use of the Lai Lai logotype in any printed material must be in CMYK or Pantonne mode. 6

Reproducing the Logotype in Colour In comparisson with the Geocell logo, Lai Lai logo should never be used without the cell on any background. When reproducing the logotype for print on colored background, care must be taken to ensure that the area surrounding the logotype is tonally even and either sufficiently light or sufficiently dark to ensure the logotype is legible.
Where possible, the Lai Lai logotype should be displayed on a flat white background (example 1). The logotype can also be displayed on any color background that is not tonally similar to Lai Lai logo color. (example 2,3). When used on the photographic backround, care must be taken that baground color is not tonally similar to the logo color. (example 4) Do not use the background that is tonally close to the logotype. (example 5) Do not use the photography that is tonally close to the logotype (example 6)

Graphic Device Review
The graphic device is very dominant element in the layout system, it is always aligned with the Geocell brandmark, and makes a visual link between Primary and subbrand products.
The device provides flexibility to solve any communication needs in print applications. These guidelines provide some examples for correct usage.
A unique graphic device helps to create a distinguished and flexible appearance.

Graphic Device Shape System Horizontal
The horizontal graphic device reflects the shape, radius and size of the Cell. It is built on the layout grid, the height of the graphic device is equal to the height of the Cell. 1.The minimum width of the graphic device is 2 columns of the grid, its height is equal to the cell height. 2.The gap between the Cell and the graphic device is determined by creating an offset path
from the Cell in width of the column gutter. 3.The radius at the opposite corner of the graphic device is equal to the radius of the Cell. 4.If the brandmark is placed at the top edge or in the opposite corner of the format, the same principle applies.

The radius between the Cell and the graphic device is determined by creating an offset path from the Cell in
width of the column gutter. 3. The radius at the opposite corner of the graphic device is equal to the radius of the Cell. 4. If the brandmark is placed at the top edge or in the opposite corner of the format, the same principle applies. 5.The Black line is the only exception when shape is not fully repeating the shape of Lai Lai logotype cell, it does not have the proportional circle at the corners. the distance between shape and cell is the same as it is with another cell.
