Color Usage

Color usage for the logo is simple and straightforward.

(A) The primary color is “Magenta” in the typeface, with

“Purple” and “Soft Blue” banding together to create the

apex of the “W”.

(B) If using the logo in grayscale, replace “Magenta” with

100% black, 85% black in place of “Purple” and 70% black

in place of “Soft Blue”.

(C) When reversing the logo, use white for the primary

color, 10% black in place of “Purple” and 15% black in

place of “Soft Blue”.

Clear Space

To ensure legibility, always keep a minimum

clear space around the logo. This space

isolates the mark from any competing

graphic elements like other logos,

headlines or body copy that might conflict

with or overcrowd the mark.

The minimum clear space is defined as the

height of the “e”. This space should be

maintained as the logo is proportionally resized.

Page 14: WB Brand Guidelines 080819 - Wellbeats

Logo Dont’s

A few rules are necessary for maintaining the integrity of

the brand. Don’t compromise the overall look of the logo by

rotating, skewing, or distorting in any way. Here are a few

examples of how NEVER to use the Wellbeats logo.

A. Don’t rotate the logo.

B. Don’t squash or stretch.

C. Don’t place elements in the clear space.

D. Don’t resize any specific parts of the logo.

E. Don’t rearrange parts or the composition of the logo.

F. Don’t use off-brand colors.

G. Don’t add dropshadows or text styles.

Color Palette

Color is a fundamental component of the Wellbeats brand

identity. Consistent use of the color palette will not only ensure a

cohesive brand, but will also aid in recognition and familiarity.

The palette is a blend of vibrant and active colors. The primary

color “Magenta” (PMS 213C) provides a fresh and energetic base

while “Purple” (PMS 7661C) and “Soft Blue” (PMS 297C)

coordinate to provide a cool yet complimentary accent.

Use of “Magenta” is intended primarily for headlines and

subheads. Callouts should utilize the “Purple” and “Soft Blue”

colors of the palette. Body copy should use “Gray” (Cool Gray 10).

It is recommended whenever possible to not use 100% black for

body copy to maintain a lighter, easy feeling.

PATTERNS & GRAPHICS

Page 21: WB Brand Guidelines 080819 - Wellbeats

20

The Banded W

The use of patterns and graphics is integral to the

personality of the brand. The “banded W” is a cornerstone

pattern in the visualization of the Wellbeats story. It

represents not only a progress bar, but also serves as a

metaphor for the paths users embark on throughout their

fitness journeys.

This design element is intended to enhance the brand story

and give focus to key elements, actions or subjects. It

highlights the ease of a moment, the joy in an activity or the

accomplishment of a goal. It quickly says, “This is

Wellbeats”, without saying a word.

(See uses throughout this guide for examples).

Page 22: WB Brand Guidelines 080819 - Wellbeats

Position & Orientation

The banded W should only be used horizontally or

vertically. It is preferred that both the start and end

begin outside of the image crop or bleed area -

although it is acceptable to allow the final ascender

to remain inside to convey a sense of progression.

When used over images, it is important to consider

the compositon and action of the photo when

choosing its orientation and position. Never position

the bands over faces or focal points.

Page 23: WB Brand Guidelines 080819 - Wellbeats

Transparencies

The bands should always have a transparency when

applied over imagery. A “multiply” blending option

(available in design software) is recommended to

achieve a consistent transparent effect. If not using

design software or blending options are unavailable,

transparency can be achieved through manual

adjustment but is dependent upon the overall density

of the image it is being placed over. It is important to

choose a transparency level that does not

compromise the hue or saturation of the brand

colors. A range between 65-85% is likely sufficient

for most situations.

PHOTOGRAPHY

Page 25: WB Brand Guidelines 080819 - Wellbeats

Using Photography

Photography should always portray real life.

Photos should have a candid view of people

as they experience Wellbeats. Photography

should convey ease-of-use, confidence and

optimism. Environments should always be

present to provide a sense of place and

context. Situations must feel authentic and

natural rather than posed and staged.

When possible, scenes should have a

dominance of natural light while a

mid-to-shallow depth of field is preferred

to enhance the focus. Avoid visual clichés,

including shots of people from above

eye level.

The primary photography objective is to

feel as if we’re a witness to the moment.

We the viewer are not front and center

and the subject(s) are not performing for

the camera.

Page 26: WB Brand Guidelines 080819 - Wellbeats

App Icons

The Wellbeats “banded W” is the

designated iconography for usage in

all app icons across all platforms.

When designing, it is important to

maintain maximum legibility for

brand recognition and impact.

BRAND GUIDELINES

Clear Space

Clear space is imparitive to maintaing the brand.

When designing or updating apps, always allow a clear

space inside the icon.
