DESCRIPTION

Collective Tattoo and Gallery maintains and improves its overall goal of inspiring, innovating and captivating its clients and community while bringing appreciation and inspiration to the arts, including tattoo’s. We focused on updating their brand identity and making it more cohesive. The goal was to revise their existing brand identity to adhere with the target audience. Their studio will strengthen and continue to be an innovative and inspiring place where the general public has the opportunity to participate in the arts. The identity is still edgy, yet more modern in its approach to appeal to a wide variety of people.

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

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.

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.

print + digital business card specifications

as one of the components of standard communication, a business

card acts as a communicator of information as well as a symbol of

collective tattoo + gallery’s work. we have guidelines offered for busi-

ness cards + referral cards. both cards are available in a digital + print

version, which allows for versatility. referrals are one of the best forms

of advertising, because it is word of mouth + there is nothing better than

a happy client who is excited about the completion of a job well done. a

referral card allows for you to express your businesses commitment

while recognizing + maintaining solid business relationships.

the print + digital business cards correspond with one another with

the only difference being their format requirements, file size + size

of card. please see the listed specifications for proper print + digital
