Bold brands born here

This document contains the rules for your visual communication system. Follow these rules strictly to maintain brand consistency.

This includes all of the elements you may need—logos, typefaces, colors, and more—to create a consistent tone, look, and feel for

The Peppered Periwinkle materials. We invite you to absorb this information and reference it often to become an informed keeper of the brand.

Logo

Primary logo

The Peppered Periwinkle primary logo is fun and whimsical. The combination mark is a representation of a periwinkle with a beer keg for a shell.

The Primary logo should be used at all time ensuring brand consistency across all communications. It is essential to the success of the brand that the logo always be applied with care and respect in every application according to these guidelines.

MINIMUM SIZE

MASTER

For readability, scale needs to have special considerations. Do not reduce these elements below these designated pixel values.

Web 120 pixels Print 1.25"

Web 54 pixels Print .75"

Secondary logo

When limited by printing constraint, use the secondary logo.

Alternative logo color usage

The color usage for The Peppered Periwinkle logo is minimal. The full color, primary logo is the preferred version and should be used whenever possible. If using as a overlay on a dark photo or background, use the white version or the rainbow version. When absence of color use is requested, choose the single color version. Only black or white should be used.

Logo mark

This logo mark can be used when the full primary logo is not necessary or in cases where the brand name is already displayed. For example, the mark could be used as a profile picture on Instagram since the username will be adjacent to it in plain text.

LOGO

Whitespace

To preserve the The Peppered Periwinkle’s logo integrity, always maintain minimum space around the logo. The importance of whitespace around brand elements and throughout all layouts cannot be overstated. It adds confidence and clarity to the visual messaging. The more white space, the better. These visuals are used to define minimums. The minimum whitespace around the mark and logo is equivalent to the 'P' in the word PEPPERED. A margin of clear space equivalent to this height is drawn around the logo to create the invisible boundary of the area of isolation.

Unacceptable logo use

These guidelines help avoid things like altering the logo in any way, causing it to lose its integrity by stretching or presenting it in a way that is not harmonious with the rest of the brand.

To make sure the logo appears as consistent as possible throughout communications, we've identified a number of ways it should never be used.

Examples to follow

List of don'ts

A. Do not squeeze or stretch.

B. Do not rearrange or resize the logo elements individually.

C. Do not add shadows or filters to the logo.

D. Do not contain the logo in box when placed on a background image or color.

E. Do not alter the logo colors.

F. Do not replace logo font.

G. Do not add other elements within the clear space allotment.

H. Do not rotate.

I. Do not place borders around logo.

Logo usage

The Peppered Periwinkle logo should be the highlight when used on promo materials. We want the bold brand to speak for itself.

Less is more.

Color palette

Color is foundational to the visual identity of a brand in all its expressions and executions–logos, packaging, products, environments and all forms of marketing communications.

The PRIMARY PALETTE helps consumers to quickly identify a brand. These are the core colors of the brand.

The SECONDARY PALETTE is used to highlight and complement the primary colors. Use these secondary colors to complement primary colors and break up white space. The brand palette will cover the majority of your needs. It’s intentionally small in variety so as to not dilute the brand visuals, which adds confusion.
