Building the identity
0.1 THE ICON.
The tri-leaf logo is modern and simplistic. The icon had been designed and influenced to embrace New Walk Museums heritage and surroundings.
Building the identity
0.2 THE logo.
A new visual identity for the New Walk Museum, whose goal was to appeal to a broader audience and come across as more modern and friendly
Solution:Modern typography and a symbol that conveys both traditional and modernity
Result:Pride and ownership internally and increased attention externally
Building the identity
0.3 safety areas
When the symbol is used by itself, a safety area around the symbol will ensure visibility and impact. The minimum safety area measures 1/4 the width of the icon. No other graphic or text must come inside of the safety areas.
When the symbol and logo type are used together, the safety area measurements still strictly apply.

0.5 guidelines and restrictions
For visibility, impact and overall integrity, it is important to retain consistent use of the logo. The logo is fundamental to communication and should never be compromised.
Always reproduce the logo from original artwork. The acceptable colour treatments of the corporate logo are demonstrated below. No other treatment or colour ways are permitted
Building the identity
0.6 primary typeface (headings)
One of the key factors in the new identity is the use of a specified type family. Goca Logotype has been carefully selected to represent New Walk Museum, and to act as the primary communications.
Goca Logotype is suitable for large sizes and headings only. abcdefghijklmn

0.9 corporate stationery
The Museum will use the corporate stationery system. The standards design is printed in the preferred two colour treatment on bright white paper stock.
All letters, emails and corporate material MUST be headed with the company header.

10. advertisement
All banners for the New walk Museum should be printed on white vinyl using horizontal orientated headlines. Placement of the logo can vary as long as guidelines and restrictions are followed. All heading must use the Goca Logotype and all body text must utilise the Satellite family typeface.

11. corporate promotional items
These promotional items must be made with 100% recyclable raw materials and printed with vegetable based inks with low VOC's.
Promotional items are a huge part of the Museum's marketing strategy. Some items will be available for sale in the Museum shop and some will be free of charge.

12. livery
The Museum logo should appear on the side and on the back of New Walk Museum's vehicles. If required promotional content (ie, upcoming events) can be displayed on the rear doors.

13. signage
Museum signage should have a white or grey background and be produced using either vinyl lettering, paint or digital printing. All text should appear in colours specified to their area..This example demonstrates the basic principle in the design of signage. It is important that any signage produced is consistent in its appearance and design to maximise impact and accessibility.
