Variations

The Basin United logos are some of our most important assets. As such, care should be taken to ensure they are presented in their optimal forms.

Reversed out
For use on darker backgrounds the logo can be produced in solid white with C21 M17 Y17 K0 to add depth to the symbol.

Single color black
For monochrome applications the keyline logo should be produced in 85% black.

Single color white
Where production only allows for a single color on a dark background the keyline logo should be produced in white.


Clear Space

Care should be taken to ensure the Basin United logo is not cluttered by other visual elements such as typography, graphics or busier areas of photographs.

An exclusion zone equal to the width of the mast symbol should be clear of visual distraction around all sides (see illustration below).

Minimum Size
To protect the legibility of the Basin United logo, a minimum size has been established.


Logo Application

The Basin United logos should always be presented using the version which gives the greatest stand-out against background image/color.
