Our Brand Aesthetic
Our brand aesthetic is bright, clean, uncluttered, professional.
 We favor generous white space and simple layouts. Our logo is designed to stand prominently against bright white backgrounds. Large areas of Midnight or Logo Blue may be used when appropriate, but should never overpower or clutter the design. Black should be used sparingly for crisp typography and accents.




Logo System
Primary Logo
The full color horizontal logo is the preferred version and should be used whenever possible. The preferred background is bright white. Other acceptable backgrounds are very light solid blue/gray tones, and light areas of photographs with sufficient contrast. The logo must always remain fully legible and must not compete with background elements.

Reverse Logo
The reverse logo must be used when the primary color logo would lack sufficient contrast. Use the reverse logo over dark backgrounds, photography, navy or cobalt fields. Use only the official reverse logo file—do not convert the primary color logo to white manually.


Vertical Lockup
The full color horizontal logo is the preferred primary version and should be used for most applications. When a taller, symmetrical look is more practical or more aesthetically pleasing, the vertical lockup may be used.






One color Logos
When only one ink color is possible, the logo may be printed in one of the following colors only:
-
Midnight Blue
-
Logo Blue
-
Bright White
Black and white Logo
The following combinations may be used ONLY when the entire piece is printed in black & white and no other color is used throughout the piece:
-
Black logo over white background
-
White logo over black background
Clear Space
To preserve clarity and visual impact, a minimum clear space must surround the logo on all sides. The required clear space for the logo (gray area shown) is equal to the cap height of VE CAPITAL as shown in the Clear Space Indicator. When using the icon alone, the required clear space is equal to the cap height of the letter E as shown in the Clear Space Indicator. No text, graphics, or edges may enter the clear space.
