LOGO USAGE GUIDELINES

Please refer to these parameters when applying the logo to communication materials. It is important that the Riverside logo remain consistent and legible.

Keep a clear space around the logo so it feels prominent and does not become crowded. The space is measured as at least the height of one of the capital letters in the logo.

The graphic mark may be used on its own as a design accent, or as a light gray tint to act as a watermark.

The official name of the organization is Riverside Industries, Inc. pertaining to our legal status.

The Riverside mark is to be used without "Industries, Inc," when using for marketing and communications.

All uses of the logo must be approved by the Development & Communications Director.

To ensure the logo is legible, keep the logo size greater than the minimum width of 1.5 inches.

The Riverside word mark and tagline may be used on their own separately from the graphic mark if there is a specific need or space constraint.

The logo may be used centered or aligned, depending on the layout of the individual communication piece.
