Logo

Do NOT's

The BlackBull logo should always be positioned upright and not tilted or inverted from its intended orientation. Rotating or flipping the logo can distort the iconic bullhorn B shape and reduce instant recognizability.

 

When applying the BlackBull logo on any materials, it is crucial to consider the viewing angle and ensure the logo is upright from that perspective.

 

To maintain consistency and brand equity, the BlackBull logo should only be reproduced in its upright forward-facing position, never altered or rotated. Keeping the logo properly oriented preserves its iconic shape and ensures optimal recognition and alignment with the BlackBull brand.

Photography

Do's​

The Photo Element is an important part of the BlackBull brand graphic system, ensuring consistent photography integration in our layouts. Derived from the unique bull horn shape, it offers three shapes – angled, rounded, and curved – for seamless photo integration. These shapes can be designed on black or white backgrounds, adding sophistication and visual appeal to our brand materials. By incorporating the Photo Element, we create a cohesive and professional look that reinforces our brand identity and enhances our visual storytelling.

 

When applying the logo to photography, choose from two primary styles: the Standalone Logo and the Framed Logo.


 

  1. Standalone Logo: This can be positioned in any photo corner. When placing, remember to maintain a clear space around it to ensure visibility and distinction.
  2. Framed Logo: This is exclusively designed for the bottom right corner, offering a unique branded touch.
  3. Color Schemes:
    • Standalone: Always in white, ensuring it complements a variety of backgrounds.
    • Framed: Available in three combinations – white on blue, black on white, and white on black.

Do NOT's

To maintain the integrity of our brand, avoid the following missteps when placing the logo on photographs:

 

  1. Disrupting Visual Focus: Never overlay the logo on a person’s face. Always respect the context and subject matter of the photograph.
  2. Ignoring Clear Space: It’s imperative to adhere to logo clear space requirements. This space ensures the logo stands out without feeling cramped or overshadowed.
  3. Suboptimal Sizing: Avoid shrinking the logo to a size where its details become indistinguishable. Ensure it’s proportionate and visible, regardless of the canvas size.
  4. Contrast Issues: Placing a white logo on bright or light backdrops can reduce visibility. Always ensure there’s enough contrast for the logo to be easily discernible.
