GCC Brand

Updated

A guide to the Grace Community Church Visual Brand.

Simple” forms the basis of our values, and the visual brand aims to be a reflection of this. It’s made of a series of simple shapes, friendly colours and clear typography. Simplicity means it’s also more accessible. Our hope is our material – whether on a screen or in print – speaks with clarity and encourages engagement.

The GCC logo has two elements: a simple square at 45° (the Gem) and a Work Sans-based wordmark. These can live separately or together. The square forms the basis for all of our department logos, often adorned with a simple thick, rounded-stroke line-drawing. The square can appear filled or hollow (with a thick stroke).

Do not add effects to the logo.
Do not stretch or skew it.
Do allow space for the logo to breathe.
