Clear space, or negative space, is the area that surrounds the mark that is completely clear of any other graphical element. Clear space helps the mark stand out from the other elements around it and ensures legibility, even at small sizes.

As a general rule, the more clear or negative space around the mark, the better.

At a minimum, there should be clear space equal to the height of the "h" on all four sides of the mark. Using an element from the mark as a unit of measurement ensures enough clear space as the logo changes in size.
