CLEAR SPACE Clear space is the area surrounding your logos and brand mark that must be kept free of any text or graphic elements. By leaving space around the logo, you make sure it stands out on all your communications. The minimum clear space is 50% of the height of the entire logo/mark. It is sometimes necessary to increase and decrease the logo depending on the print area. Always keep in proportion. Always ensure the text is legible.
