• Use solid or lightly‑textured backgrounds so the logo stays legible.

Dos & Don’ts

A handful of quick rules to keep our mark looking its best.

• - Do keep the logo’s proportions locked – scale it up or down, never stretch.
• - Don’t stretch, squash, or skew the logo.
• - Do give the logo at least 20 px of clear space on all sides so it can breathe.
• - Don’t place the logo over noisy backgrounds where it loses legibility.
• - Do stick to our official brand colours whenever you display the logo.
• - Don’t recolour the logo or add shadows, filters, or other effects.
• - Do keep text at a respectful distance – the logo shouldn’t feel crowded.
• - Don’t alter the text placement or letter‑spacing within the logo.
