NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH OF GOD, DERBY STYLE GUIDELogo Guidelines

The logomark works as a stand alone graphical element, however, in most situations the logomark and the wordmark should be used together (lockup). The wordmark should always be used in combination with the logomark.

Many various color combinations (within the brand color palette) can be used, dependant on the background and context.

Textures of any kind should never be used on the logo. It should be kept simple and clean at all times. Never crowd or layer images and/or text on top of the logo.

Please be conscious to not crowd the logo leave plenty of breathing space for him!

NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH OF GOD, DERBY STYLE GUIDETypography Guidelines

For all important videos, prints and publications, Sansation Bold & Regular should be used. Sansation Bold is used in headline or title situations, and Aller Regular is used in secondary titles and/or body copy.

Lora Regular and Bold may be used as supporting typefaces, but rather sparily. It is best used utilized when attempting to convey an ‘old-time vibe or for legibility reasons (ie quotes or long passages of Scripture)

There are, however, certain times, such as minor fl yers, posters and other collateral that various typefaces may be used if approved by the Creative team.

Please, however, refrain from using fonts that Ed Hardy or a nursery would use. Above all, copy should be readable

Keep it legible.

6.0RECOMMEDATIONS

THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS ARE MORE GUIDELINES THAN RULES – HERE TO HELP YOU ON YOUR DESIGN JOURNEY

NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH OF GOD, DERBY STYLE GUIDEImagery Recommendations

• Images should be rooted in authenticity. We are who we are and should not look like an advertisement.

• Always use high quality images. Don’t use 72 DPI images for print or stretched images because it’s “all we have.” Find an alternative. Remember excellence fi rst!

• Use images that are not over or under processed in photoshop.

• Background textures can and should be used. Generally, these should be strong images (i.e. wood, leather, concrete). Please be sure type is legible on them.

NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH OF GOD, DERBY STYLE GUIDEStock Imagery Recommendations

• Use stock imagery only when you absolutely need to, but remember some images may already be linked to unsuitable brands and products.

• Pictures of overly happy people are scary

• Just because you can “download it now” doesn’t mean you should.
