Brand & Logo Usage Guide

It is essential to maintain consistency across all platforms and mediums to ensure brand integrity. This guide outlines the do’s and don’ts of using our logo and brand.

Primary Logo: The GSF logo in colour is our primary logo and should be used in most applications.

Secondary Logos: Any variations, such as monochrome versions, should only be used if the colour version does not fit.

Clear Space
Maintain a clear space around the logo. This space should be at least the height of the ‘F’ in “FORUM” to ensure the logo’s visibility and impact.

Minimum Size
To ensure legibility, the logo should never be reduced to a width smaller than 1.5 inches for print or 150px for digital use.

Don’ts

  • Don’t alter, rotate, or modify the logo in any way.
  • Don’t use the logo as a pattern or background.
  • Don’t add shadows, embossing, or any other effects to the logo.
  • Don’t stretch or compress the logo; always scale proportionally.

Background Usage

  • The logo should primarily be used on light backgrounds to ensure visibility.
  • If the logo is placed on a coloured background or image, ensure it remains clear and legible. Consider using a monochrome version if needed.
