Notes on Work Product from Alastair of Kainos

  • I recommend that you use a blue background wherever possible. Exceptions are where your logo is being used in another context (e.g. on another brand's website). In those situations you can use one of the 'exceptional' use case logos (see folder names).
  • The logos and line drawings are in PDF format - but can be opened with Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or used in any of the Microsoft Office programs.
  • Illustrations are in two formats - for on screen and for print. On screen files are lower resolution, smaller file size, and RGB format. Print files are higher resolution, larger file size, and CMYK (printer ink) format. For best results use the appropriate format for a task.
  • Fonts are supplied and can be used immediately. However you'll need to purchase a license for Rigid Square. You can get it here.
