LOGO USAGE

When using the logo, always keep white space or breathing space around all sides of it to create a perfect distance. A good way to measure, is to take a square in the size of the letter ‘R+E’ from the logo. Keep at least that amount of space around all sides of word.

Logo Breathing Space & Minimum Size. Minimum 0.5″ in height.

The following are examples of ways to not use the logo:

…. a grey version of the logo
… change the angle or use the logo sideways
… compress the logo’s height or length
… stretch the logo’s height or length

LAYOUT

Please follow the recommended rules on size of the logo and where to place the logo as listed below:

such as web address, etc. Place the logo either on the bottom left or right corner (marked in Magenta).
