At City of Melbourne our brand reflects our passion for Melbourne; to help and inspire the people who live, work, study, visit and do business here.
Our brand recognises that our customers can experience a number of our organisation’s services, information, experiences, work programs, regulations and so on.
City of Melbourne (CoM) has a master brand mark for all its activities and communication - the CoM logo.
The following pages contain guidelines and examples of how the CoM logo should be applied across sponsorship or partner applications.
All logo placements require approval before publication.
TOP TIPS FOR LOGO APPROVALS
Please ensure you review this list prior to submitting your artwork for logo approval:
Adherance to the minimum size and clear space - please provide the artwork size and actual logo size when requesting approval of any printed material. Refer to page 10 (print) and page 13 (digital) for minimum sizes.
At least two business days must be allowed for approval.
Our approval is limited to the logo itself, and not the actual artwork content.
Your CoM contract manager will provide any required feedback or approval of artwork content. The final version of the artwork should always be submitted.
Your City of Melbourne grant/sponsor contact must be copied on any correspondence to the logo approval team.
MORE INFORMATION
For logo approvals, please email [email protected] For further information regarding the use of CoM logo, please contact the Marketing team on 9658 9658.

APPLICATION OF OUR MASTER BRAND MARK
SECONDARY LOGO A
PRIMARY LOGOAll City of Melbourne activities are represented by our master brand mark: the CoM logo. There are no other sub-brands or logos for any of our businesses, services, experiences, venues, regulations, initiatives or programs.
The CoM logo is made up of two components: the M Symbol and the logotype. They must always appear together.
The CoM logo must appear on all communications generated from all areas of City of Melbourne, and on any communications which we sponsor or are partners for.
COM LOGO CONFIGURATIONS
The CoM logo can be used externally in two different configurations:
PRIMARY LOGO
This logo format is required for all branding unless there are particular spacing or layout issues.
SECONDARY LOGO A
In some instances it may be necessary to use the secondary logo, such as when the logo appears in a panel with other partner logos (refer to page 8). The minimum sizes should still be adhered to.
All other versions of the logo are no longer to be used.
City of Melbourne Sponsor/Partner Guidelines | September 2017 Page 3
CITY OF MELBOURNE LOGO
The CoM logo only exists in three versions: full colour, black and white.
FULL COLOUR
The full colour version is the preferred option, and should be used over white or light backgrounds only.
BLACK
The black version may be used in situations where the colour version clashes with the design of a communication, or when colour reproduction is not possible. It is suitable to be used over white or pale backgrounds.
WHITE
The white version may be used where the legibility of the colour or black logo is compromised, for example over dark backgrounds or overlay on design and photos.
Please note: where City of Melbourne is a sponsor and the entire event artwork is only in one colour, then the CoM logo may be reproduced in that colour.

LOGO CLEAR SPACE
CLEAR SPACE GUIDE
There must also be a defined clear space around the CoM logo. This clearance space rule should be applied to all applications of the logo. This area must also remain free of other graphic elements, type and logos.
The recommended clearance space distance of the primary and secondary logo is measured by the width of the descending leg of the ‘M’ symbol, as indicated by ‘x’ in the examples shown.
City of Melbourne Sponsor/Partner Guidelines | September 2017 Page 6
INCORRECT USE OF THE COM LOGO
To maintain brand equity and consistency of application, it is essential that the CoM logo is never altered in any way. Here are a few examples of what not to do.
It is essential that the CoM logo is always reproduced from the master artwork and never recreated or cut and pasted from secondary sources. Never change the colour or
distort the CoM logo.Never change the
arrangement of the M Shape and logotype.
Never use the logotype without the M Shape.
Never alter the physical appearance of the CoM logo
in any way.
Never apply any effects such as drop shadows or glows to
the CoM logo.
Never use the CoM logo on dark colours or colours that
cause it to lose legibility.
Never use a different font for the logotype, or attempt to
recreate any part of the CoM logo.
Never use other variations of the CoM logo.
Never use the M symbol without the logotype
Never place the CoM logo over background detail which interferes with the legibility.
Never rotate the logotype Do not place the CoM logo within a shape on a coloured
background

LOGOLOGO
WHEN CITY OF MELBOURNE IS A ‘SPONSOR’
The CoM logo requirements should be included in any agreements made with an external party. The format of the CoM logo can be determined by the overall orientation of logos within a logo farm. Refer to the visual guide as shown below.
Where possible (dependent upon space and size of collateral) the CoM logo should be introduced with supporting terminology (above the logo), for example: ‘Supported by’ or ‘Sponsored by’ or ‘Public Partner’ etc. Please seek advice from your City of Melbourne contract manager regarding appropriate wording.
