Our literature style


the key to successful communication

Only by carefully following these guidelines can we ensure that our communications are distinctive, instantly recognisable, consistent and memorable. Our brand identity consists of several integral elements: Our logotype Our typefaces Our literature style The way these elements are applied and their relationship to each other are critical in building the Broneirion brand.


our logotype Our logotype is the single most important element of our visual identity. It represents our name and what we stand for.


Our Brand Guidelines V#1 02.2012 Page 5

Our Logotype

Which file format? .ai & .eps Illustrator ai’s & eps are a vector file formats and as such are infinitely scaleable without loss of quality. These should be used wherever possible and should always be supplied to designers and printers.

.tif Tif is a pixel based file format so will suffer loss of quality if it is enlarged. It should be used at the size it is supplied or smaller. This file format is useful for PC users.

.jpg Jpeg is also pixel based but is designed to use on screen. Use on PCs for powerpoint presentations and websites etc. Jpeg should not be used for printed materials.


Our Brand Guidelines V#1 02.2012 Page 6

The no-go zone

The no-go zone An exclusion zone ensures a logotype stands out clearly wherever it is used. It is defined as the height of the typography element of the logotype (x) and represents a minimum area of exclusion, within which there should be no other typography or graphic element. However, wherever possible, additional space around the logotype will increase the legibility and impact of the mark.

Minimum size To ensure legibility of the typography and clarity of the mark, the logotype should never be reproduced at less than 18mm wide. This is an absolute minimum rather than a preferred size and should only be used when limited space dictates.

20mm


Our Brand Guidelines V#1 02.2012 Page 7

Keep it Simple

Poor use of the logotype, however slight, will reduce the overall impact of Brobeirion’s visual identity. Here we have shown some examples of how not to use the logotype. Only the master artworks provided should be used.

Some things to avoid: 1. Never change the colour of the mark or its icon 2. Never recreate the typography using alternate typefaces 3. Only use colours from the approved palette. 4. Never use a drop shadow with the logotype.

Brand variants

The Master Brand logotype should be used at all times where possible as it represents our name and what we stand for in it’s purest form. However, there will be times when it cannot be reproduced in it purest form. Monotone: Positive and Negative versions have been created for use when only one colour is available. ie: News Print or when colour is beyond your control.

Make it legible

Imagery When the logotype is placed over a photograph, the typography must be clearly legible. Changing the positioning of the image may be necessary.

Use the master brand on a white Use the master brand logotype on background for maxium impact & clarity. darker images, only where contrast is sufficient to support the brand

Placing the logotype over areas of high contrast or heavy pattern should always be avoided.

Use the negative mono logotype on darker images where contrast is not sufficient to support the brand


it’s a typeface, not a font Some basic guidelines • When using text over blocks of colour, ensure the background colour is of sufficient contrast for the text to be legible. • When using text over photographs, apply only to areas of solid colour and where the contrast is sufficient to ensure the text is legible. • Never set large blocks of text in italics or capitals. These should be used sparingly to create emphasis where appropriate. • In most cases, text should be left aligned. For large blocks of body copy, text should always be left aligned. However, common sense should be applied when placing small areas of text such headings or captions.

Logo Typeface

Our Logotype brand mark has been created, using Trajan Pro.

It should be used sparingly and only when literature is commissioned from a creative professional.

To avoid confusion, the above corporate colour, Pantone 327 should never be used in GirlGuiding literature.

- Use CMYK values for printing when Pantone速 numbers cannot be specified. RGB values should be used for Screen based work (Web, TV and broadcast applications etc). Html is for website and new media use. - Matching colours across different media is not an exact science so a visual check should be always be made to ensure consistency.

our literature style

We have developed two separate styles which have a common tone of voice for communicating to our corporate customers and for our girlguiding activities. Consistency in the way they are reproduced is vital to the success of building our brand. Be it a conference, meeting or corporate event, Bronierion is a unique venue, set in the heart of mid Wales.

The following pages show how our style can be applied in a way that is consitent and flexible. Please use these examples as a benchmark for your own designs.
