CALM LOGO.This section is all about our logo and how you use it. We like it when we see it strong and proud. This will keep you on the straight and narrow and warn you away from mistakes you could innocently make.
The logo is the most visible element of our identity. It is vitally important that when people cast their eyes on our logo, they recognise it.
Apply it consistently, please.

COLOUR PALETTE.The colour palette is a key element to the visual identity. The colours we use and the way we use them will be key for our audience to build some familiarity and recognition.
Yes, we want fame and notoriety and colours are a great way of building this.

CONTRASTING COLOURS. The logo is flexible, but clarity is always maintained through the use of contrasting colours.
These guidelines will help you ensure it is loud, proud and visually sound.

PLACING THE LOGO ON A BACKGROUND. There will be occasions when you will need to place our logo on a supporting image. This is fine, we just don’t like to fight, so please make sure that it is legible.
We’re not afraid of being different. For darker background images use our logo in white. For the lighter background images you have the option to use one of our core blues or black.
