LOCK-UP Combination of icon and type. f) primary logo. g) without tagline.
V A R I AT I O N S Vizkaia’s logo variations consist of 3 icon options, 2 type options, and 2 different lock-ups. These can be used in replace of the primary logo (but should never be used directly next to the primary logo in the same design). The type options ca be used in cases where the primary lock-up would be too bulky. The icons can be used alone when the name is not necessary to include. The icons should only be used in selected cases where the name is already displayed in plain text. For example, an icon could be used as a profile picture on social media, since the username will likely be adjacent to it in plain text. Again, these should never be used directly next to the primary logo; it looks repetitive and is not a good use of the bran elements.

C L E A R S PAC E To ensure legibility, always keep a minimum clear space around the logo. This space isolates the logo from any competing graphic elements, such as: logos, body copy, photography, or background patterns that might conflict with Vizkaia’s logo and lessen the impact of the brand. The minimum clear space is defined by the width of the letter “k” from the logo’s brand name shape. This minimum space should be maintained as the logo is proportionaly enlarged or reduced in size.
25
ADVERTISING
26
ADVERTISEMENT Photograph advertisements are to be simplistic, with a large photo to catch the attention and a simple tagline, and the logo (either complete or just the icon). There are a couple of ways the logo can be used on photographic backgrounds, but each option should be exercised with care, making sure the logo and type aren’t obstructed by the image or viceversa.
