1.1
introduction The Qantas story is inextricably linked with the development of civil aviation in Australia. It begins with fragile biplanes carrying one or two passengers in open cockpits and progresses to the new Airbus A380s flying some 450 people half way around the world in a day. But, it is a story of human endeavor, not just machines. A few determined individuals overcame formidable obstacles to establish the Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services Ltd (QANTAS). Supported by committed staff and loyal customers, the airline persevered through war and peace to serve the nation and build an enterprise. The Qantas story is about the people who have created its exciting and productive history - its staff, its customers and the excellence of its business partners and key suppliers... Today, Qantas is widely regarded as the world's leading long distance airline and one of the strongest brands in Australia. Qantas continues to provide outstanding service to its customers and is at the forefront of the international civil aviation industry. The future holds many challenges for Qantas maintaining safe operations and world class product standards while building a viable and competitive position long term for the airline.

-Paul Rand Paul Rand designed a group of logos for important American institutions. These adhered to principles of simplicity, ease of recognition, and absolute appropriateness to their subject matter. Many of them, though decades old, are still in use. These include logos for Westinghouse, UPS, ABC, NextComputer, Yale University, Cummins Engine, and the ubiquitous IBM
Qantas has a simple purpose. We transport passengers from point A to B in the most efficient, affordable, and comfortable way possible. We want our customers to be able to say they flew effortlessly with no hassle, and let our service speak for itself. But even when it does, our airline has an invaluable asset speaking for it as well: the Qantas brand. This guide details the visual elements that support the Qantas brand. It also explains how, when used correctly and consistently, these elements speak for Qantas in an articulate and compelling way. Please note: the design of Qantas’ brand elements was not arbitrary. And their collective impact is not subjective. The Qantas logo, typefaces, color palette, and usage requirements reflect and reinforce the very essence of Qantas. By following this guide, you help define Qantas for our customers, partners, and our industry at large. Equally important, you help them recognize, differentiate, and remember us. In some cases, this guide provides explicit rules on how to use—and how not to use—various elements. But overall, it offers a framework for making and evaluating creative decisions. If you have questions about how to use any brand elements, or need additional information, contact: Tyler Fleider Director of Corporate Communications 770) 826.5237 t.fleider@hotmail.com
The Brand
“Design, good or bad, is a vehicle of memory. Good design adds value.”
The brand
1.3
The logo
The Qantas logo is the cornerstone of the Qantas Brand. It is an abstract conceptualization of a boomerang in flight. The boomerang symbolizes not only the home nationality of the airline, but also our promise to transport passengers to their destination and back without fail. Its simple, rhythmic shape reflects how easy it is for customers to board and start their own adventures. The sleek wave design promotes quality and gives the feeling of class to its onlookers.

Color has meaning, and we understand that. Qantas uses specific colors to promote its nationality and heritage. Australian “green and gold” are used as the logo’s driving colors, with the clay red and olive green being secondary. We used green and gold to reference Australia’s national colors while the clay red represents aboriginal culture, and the olive green symbolizes the vast outback’s wildlife and flora.
