Introduction

EnerBlü EnerBlü powers technology for the new energy world. EnerBlü is devoted to making sustainable energy more affordable and reliable – passionate towards powering a resourceful and clean future. We’re changing the way people think about environmental conservation. We redefine logistics in transportation of product and more imporantly - you and I.

EnerBlü Blü is perpetual forward-thinking for the innovative solutions of tomorrow. Blü is how we define our message and not to be confused with messag-ing.

EnerBlü Power Groups

Power Groups are the individual divisons of EnerBlü that work together in creating new capabilites that impact key industries in tomorrows world.

Tag Line

Forever Power

Font: Raleway ExtraLight Tracking: 60

Our tagline “Forever Power” embodies the underlying motif for forward-thinking and innovative solutions. The period is always left out resulting with an open-ended statement that extends the limitless possibilities of Forever Power and further more - EnerBlü. Tagline is used with our wordmark (12) and also seen in our head logo (18). Tracking is always set to 60 to better space each letter and appear weightless - allowing the tagline to float underneath our wordmark, creating contrast between positive and negative space and ultimately offering a comfortable presentation of the brand message.

eMark

eMark is more than a logo or icon. eMark is a visual que that symbolizes thinking Blü. Blü thought is for innovate solutions that stand proactive towards an industry revolution. eMark welcomes you to the energy of Blü - solutions of tomorrow. Depicted in the shape is 2 electrons traveling in circular motions on perpendicular planes. After their path’s cross – the interaction between forces creates a sphere-like shape where the electrons begin harnessing power. Described is an act similar to Power Groups or any given number of individuals uniting for a cause. The overall shape was crafted so it could read as a lower-case e and convey progression.

The eMark is used in EnerBlü’s Head Logo, Primary Logo, and Secondary Logo. The eMark is used as an individual element minimally [paired with a wordmark in a given logo option offers a stronger impact and better recognition]. Those times could include merchandising, apparel, stamps, EnerBlü App Icon, and in layouts where out wordmark is in-line with headline text.

Our wordmark - beyond mere text - the most common visual element in the brand experience and is therefor the most vital extension of our identity. Raleway was chosen as a font that could personify a rather digital user experience. The friendly sans serif has bold, humanistic and welcoming qualities that accentuate the brand. It can stand alone or be paired with our tagline. See page 17 for “in-line” use with page headers. A wordmark can be used on images but should not obstruct content. Our Fully Dressed wordmark is a stand alone element and used in the light of public relations. Blü is highlighted blue to emphasize the brand message meaning this variation would never be used when doing any type of promotion.

Whenever our wordmark may be used “In-line” with a header - that page/spread/layout/design would never use a Primary, Secondary or Head logo. Your only option would be use the eMark as a stand-alone element.

Think of our Head Logo as the Big Picture. By joining all iconic visual components - eMark, Wordmark, and Tagline - we’re able to see the brand at it’s most complete. Use of the head logo should parallel an opening presentation or first impression. With an exception of the business cards – our head logo is a stand alone element primarily used for banners, murals, video introductions, and so forth.

The Primary Logo is commonly used as a header or at the top of layouts. Generally, try to think larger spaces.

The horizontal distance in line weight of E becomes the distance between eMark and EnerBlü (marked in red). To achieve the appropriate size ratio between wordmark and eMark - proportionally scale eMark to be the height of E (distance from dotted lines). Next multiply height and width of eMark by 1.618. eMark and EnerBlü then align on vertical centers.

Pantone® 443 C and 5463 U are EnerBlü’s dark colors and should be thought of as black. Pantone® 656 C and 638 U are more purified and can be thought of as white alternatives.

Color Use in EnerBlü Primary Colors: 15% Secondary Colors: 85% Primary colors are used to draw the eye in – Buttons, Icons, decor elements. Due to their use in the eMark their use as background colors becomes obsolete.

Color Use in EnerBlü Power Groups Primary Colors: 60% Secondary Colors: 40% Power Groups are the embodiment of EnerBlü and therefor visualized with a higher saturation of our primary colors. That isn’t to say however, you can’t still use white.

Primary Font

Our Primary Font choices derive from the Raleway typeface - four fonts used only for headers and call-to-action. The fonts are Raleway Heavy, Bold, Medium and ExtraLight. Raleway does have a larger typeface family but we only use these 4. This set was chosen for the dynamic range in line weight and ability to create contrast. Raleway Heavy is never used in EnerBlü’s material – instead, only used in material relating to the Power Groups(s).

Secondary Font

Our choice of Secondary Fonts is the Crimson typeface. This set of fonts is used for body copy, captions, statistics, paragraphs, bullet points and anywhere heavily saturated with text. 6 fonts - regular and italic at 3 different weights - give you plenty of styling options. This very traditional serif offers a highly professional look.

Imagery.

What we’re presenting will dictate which pages to work from. EnerBlü and the Power Groups would use slightly different pages. Depending on the presentation, EnerBlü pages and Power Group pages could be combined into a single presentation. Pages 1 are our title pages and can contain logos. They allow the presentation to be broken up into sections and offer a good buffer, making the overall presentation easier to digest. Pages 2 and 3 are your content pages. Content pages may use images, graphs or charts. When we want heavy empahsis on a photo we use the imagery slides. Imagery slides can contain captions. We would only ever use one Opening Slide per presentation. Again, depending on what we’re presenting and who we’re presenting to, can dictate which opening slide to use.
