Primary Logo

The primary logo is used to illustrate the company. The Guillevin symbol alone may be used only when Guillevin is already established as the brand or it appears in proximity to the primary logo. The logos with descriptors are used to illustrate a specific branch. Multiple Guillevin logos with descriptors are not to be used next to each other. Instead, use the primary logo.

Color palette for print and digital

Use the print spot and CMYK specifications when printing on smooth coated paper (e.g., magazines) and for uncoated porous stock where inks tend to spread (e.g., newspapers). These spot color and CMYK inks are the best matches and were established by testing on coated and uncoated substrates. The RGB values are the closest on-screen depictions of the spot coated palette and should be used for digital applications. The Hex values represent the same RGB colors in the language used by web designers. Do not use software program defaults for colors. Always reference these color values to ensure precise print and digital reproduction and maintain consistency in all channels and media.

Typography

Typography is an important element of the Guillevin visual identity. Consistent application of typography across all communications adds visual distinctiveness to the Guillevin brand. Gilroy is our brand typeface. It’s a modern, updated sans serif typeface that excels in on– and off–screen readability at any size. Use Gilroy in all designed materials. Primary headlines should be set in Gilroy Bold, while body copy can use lighter weights such as Medium and Regular. Gilroy Extrabold must never be used, it is reserved for the logo exclusively. Alternatively, Arial and bold Arial are options when Gilroy is not available.

Gilroy Bold
Gilroy Medium
Gilroy Regular
Gilroy Bold Italic
Gilroy Medium Italic
Gilroy Regular Italic

Use Gilroy Bold for primary headlines. Use Gilroy Regular for text. When you have body copy or large areas of text, you can also use Gilroy Medium. You can also use Gilroy Bold for subheads, calling out a word, or when you need a bolder weight.

Typography usage

The way we use typography reflects our professionalism and quality. We can convey our messaging by varying type size and weight and using color from our brand palette. Sentence case should be used for messaging, with all caps reserved for short phrases, such as in a call to action or wayfinding sign. Keep compositions clean and readable by avoiding using too many typographic styles in the same piece. Colored type on white or colored backgrounds should be used when it can draw attention or add a friendly tone to what we say.

Typography colors on backgrounds

To maintain brand compliance, only the color combinations shown are approved for on-screen typography. For print applications, please treat color on a case-by-case basis to ensure sufficient legibility and contrast against backgrounds.
