The logo is the most visible element of our identity -a universal signature across all communications. It is a guarantee of quality that unites our offer.
Because the logo is such a recognisable and highly visible brand asset, it is vital that it is always applied consistently wherever it appears.
On occasions, due to space restrictions,you may find that the logo cannot be used in its normal configuration. On these occasions it is acceptable to use the ID icon.

Exclusion Zone.
To ensure the logo has maximum impact always keep the area around it clear. This space is called the exclusion zone. The exclusion zone protects the logo from other visual and graphics elements. The exclusion zone is derived from the height of the D as illustrated.
Minimum Size.
To maintain legibility, the DirectID logo should never be reproduced any smaller than width 25mm or 70px.
Our logo should always be applied in the clearest and most brand conscious light. Primarily, the DirectID marque should be set in light blue and either on white or dark blue backgrounds. For secondary applications,such as social posts and marketing materials, it can also be set in dark blue or white on backgrounds of any of our secondary palette.
Our logo is one of our most precious assets.As a result, it should only be displayed as defined in these guidelines, and should not be applied incorrectly. Examples of bad practice are shown in, but not limited to, the examples here.
