Euramax brandbook

Een eenduidige huisstijl draagt bij aan een zichtbaar en herkenbaar Euramax. Binnen de huisstijl zijn er diverse eigenschappen die het gezicht bepalen. Deze handleiding laat zien wat de bouwstenen zijn waarmee een ontwerper aan de slag kan om naar eigen inzicht middelen te creëeren.

Logo

Our logo stands for clarity. Clarity is found in the solid nature of our wordmark, symbolising the strong fundament of our company. Connection is found in the ‘ligature’ between the ‘u’ and the ‘r’ in the wordmark. This symbolises the combination of quality and service and the interaction between us and our customers.

Our divisions are identified by their own descriptor.

Our General Brand:  The Cladding Material Company

A minimum margin is recommended for optimal communication purposes. The margin is based on the brand icon (which is based on the way the letters u + r of ‘Euramax’ are connected).

Do’s

Use logo only in the right brand colours.

If colour is not an option, only use a black or white version.

An inverted version of the logo is only used on a black background or a colour from the brand palette.

The logo can only be placed on an image if it achieves enough contrast. Make an informed decision whether to use the black or white version of the logo, depending on the type of image.

Don’ts

Never change, ad or use colors other then our colour palette.

Never change, ad or use other typefaces.

Never use outlines or other filters for the logo.

Never alter, skew or distort the logo.

Typography

As our primary typeface we use Roc Grotesk. A sans serif grotesk inspired by the craftsmanship for creating American wood type from the end of the 19th century. It comes in a number of weights in order to cover a wide scope of applications.

For our communication requirements we use the Roc Grotesk Normal and Wide. Which gives consistency as well as flexibility.

Its Bold counterpart is spaced in such a way that the width of the text column will be similar to the text set in Regular.

  • For the logo we customized a Roc Grotesk Wide Bold.
  • For the logo descriptors we used the Roc Grotesk Wide Medium in ALL CAPS.

The Roc Grotesk font family is via Adobe Fonts

Roc Grotesk Wide

For use in headlines and highlighted text. Preferably normal written, with lower-case letters starting with a capital letter. Occasionally lines of an all-caps text can be used to emphasize text. Because no uppercase letter descends below the baseline, the lines of an all-caps text can be packed tightly on a poster or a headline for example.

Roc Grotesk

The Regular style is somewhat generously spaced, as it is most likely to be used for setting longer passages of text.

Colors

Green is the colour of nature and health. It represents growth, connection and safety. Green is a relaxing colour that is easy on the eye. We picked a premium green, which stands for craft and service.
