logo misuse; background do’s + don’ts
it is important that collective tattoo + gallery’s logo is a consistent
mark at all times. the following examples are what not to do with the
logo when placing the logo onto a variety of materials + backgrounds.
designers are expected to keep the logotype consistent. please refer
to the contact page if any questions should arise about the usage of
the logo when placed on a particular background.
the logotype should not be placed upon a background that has similar
tonal values +/or hue of that particular logo. if the logo is similar in
tone to the background +/or if the logo is placed upon a busy, overly
contrasted background, the logo will not be readable and therefore,
will fail. please review the misused variations, shown at left, for exam-
ples of how not to use the vertical logotype on busy background +/or
incorrect color combinations.
do not use the logotype over a busy pattern that will make it unreadable
do not use the logotype over a busy or overly contrasted image
do not use the logotype on a back-ground color that is similar to the colors in the logo
do use the white version of the logotype instead of pre-vious example above
brand components + logo usage + color + typefaces
315
color
the primary logo should print with pantone black c along with another
plate run of 100 k (black) over top to give it a rich black appearance, if
the background requires the logo to be reversed white on black, use
the single color white version as shown. pantone #877 c is used when
the logo is being printed on a lighter surface.

the main typeface for collective tattoo + gallery’s body copy is museo
sans 500. body copy should be set in 10pt over 14/leading. the usage
of approved typefaces must be appropriate to layout. museo sans 500
must be used as the body copy typeface in each piece for a consistent
brand presence, however for creative purposes, one can also use
optimus princeps + infrared typefaces if appropriate + approved.
when using optimus princeps +/or infrared, you must use the typeface
sparingly + only in short runs of body + headline copy that consist of no
more than 40 words per body copy + 10–15 words for headlines.
all lowercase or uppercase are accepted. be conscious of readability
of information + hierarchy. make sure the message can be communi-
cated clearly to customers.
museo sans 500 10pt / 14
museo sans 500 is the primary
typeface that is used for headings +
most body copy.
