This image is the organization’s brand, the central, defining image or idea of what it is and does. And with the rapid growth that Lake County has seen in recent years, the need for a communicative brand has never been greater. Recognizing this, the Board of County Commissioners launched a program to develop the tools necessary to begin a branding program. This manual represents that initiative’s fruition. The foundation of a brand is its graphic identity, the logo and other visual elements that represent it. A cohesive graphic identity allows everything from business cards to dump truck doors to tell a brand’s story. By having a strong brand and graphic identity, Lake County will inspire its citizens and be equipped to share the area’s amenities with the world. This branding journey begins on the pages that follow with a new identity system and standards to protect it. But the final destina- tion will be determined by resourcefulness and good stewardship of every County employee. INTRO DUCTION ◆ 2 INTRODUCTION THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING STANDARDS Simply put, standards are what put the identity in graphic identity. They enable an organization to maintain its distinctive look and feel in any situation. And by using its graphic elements consistently and judiciously, Lake County can build a lasting image and distinguish itself from other areas and organizations. Graphic standards allow the many individual departments that make up the Lake County team to come together as a unified whole before the citizens we serve. Please employ the standards contained herein whenever using graphic elements— for use in every medium. This manual is our team’s visual playbook, providing the guidelines necessary to reach our goal of clear communication and an impactful brand image. LOGO ◆ 3 LOGO BRIEF OVERVIEW As the primary visual representation of Lake County, our logo is the most vital graphic component of our brand. It communicates at a glance the natural amenities that make the area a wonderful place to live and work. The great branding asset—and potential difficulty—of a logo is how readily it lends itself to a myriad of uses. By using the new logo widely, Lake County will have it constantly before the eyes of its citizens and quickly build recognition. However, the varying demands of diverse media (e.g., a black-and-white printed piece versus a Web image or a vehicle decal) increase the danger of producing inconsistent finished products, which would erode the very visual unity that the County wishes to achieve. That is why it is essential that all Lake County employees follow the standards set forth herein. Every conceivable graphic need falls within these guidelines, making it easy for projects across the County to stay in harmony. LOGO ◆ 4 LOGO USAGE The Lake County logo will be prominently displayed on all County assets (vehicles, signage, et al) public information and promotional material. This logo may not be graphically changed in any way. This includes its proportions, fonts and color applications as outlined in this guide. The Lake County logo may ONLY be used in one of four ways: 4-Color Process 2-Colors (PMS 280 and 369) 1-Color With Screen Tints (PMS 280, PMS 369, Black or White) 1-Color (PMS 280, PMS 369, Black or White) Digital files of the Lake County logo have been provided in several approved size, color and type configurations. These configurations are described on the following pages. COLOR STANDARDS The Lake County logo is a 4-color process graphic, and is the preferred version to be used whenever possible. The color usage and breakdowns for the major colors in the 4-color logo are as follows: 4-Color Process Usage DEEP BLUE PMS 280* C M Y K 100 65 0 30 R G B 0 70 133 LIGHT BLUE PMS 2925* C M Y K 72 27 0 0 R G B 53 152 212 GREEN PMS 369* C M Y K 65 0 100 8 R G B 90 174 65 *Indicates closest PMS match to the 4-color process colors. LOGO ◆ 5 LOGO LOGO ◆ 6 LOGO COLOR STANDARDS When 4-color process is not available or practical, the Lake County logo may be printed in the following approved Pantone colors, which provide the closest matches to the colors used in the 4-color logo: 2-Color Usage PANTONE 280 PANTONE 369 The 2-color logo may ONLY be printed in Pantone 280 (deep blue) and Pantone 369 (green) as shown. 1-Color Usage The 1-color logos may ONLY be printed with Pantone 280 (deep blue), Pantone 369 (green), black or white.PANTONE 280 PANTONE 369 BLACK WHITE LOGO ◆ 7 LOGO DISPLAY, SIZE AND PLACEMENT Each of the digital files for the Lake County logo has been created with two type treatments (for use in horizontal and vertical designs) and in three sizes (for large, medium and small usage). Each size has slight modifications to better accentuate the details of the logo when printed at that intended size. The following pages show the proper size limits of each of the logo files. The digital file names for each logo configuration have been included for reference. The preferred file format to use is .eps, which produces the cleanest reproduction quality.* Large Usage, 4-Color Process Logo HORIZONTAL TYPE TREATMENT FILE NAME: LAKE4colorH_lrg.eps May be used as large as needed.

LOGO ◆ 23 LOGO DISPLAY, SIZE AND PLACEMENT When using the Lake County logo with other design elements and images, there must be an area of dead space surrounding the logo. This space must be equal to or more than X, where X is equal to the height of the LAKE COUNTY type. The Lake County logo must not be placed close to distracting design elements and must not become part of a larger pattern or design element. Area of Isolation X X X DISPLAY, SIZE AND PLACEMENT The preferred usage for the Lake County logo is on a light-colored, unobtrusive background. However, the logo and nomenclature (to be discussed in the next section) may be used on dark backgrounds and in images where the background does not distrub the readability of the logo. When using the Lake County logo on a background color or photo, the following standards apply: Dark Background Usage On a dark background, the Lake County type and rule may be reversed (white ONLY), to make the type more legible. The background color must not be so dark that the deep blue border around the graphic is lost. LOGO ◆ 24 LOGO DISPLAY, SIZE AND PLACEMENT Light Photographic Background Usage The Lake County logo and nomenclature may be used on images with simple backgrounds that do not distract from the logo and type legibility. Where The Best Comes Into View. LOGO ◆ 25 LOGO DISPLAY, SIZE AND PLACEMENT Dark Photographic Background Usage The Lake County logotype and nomenclature can be reversed (white ONLY) on simple backgrounds that are dark, but not dark enough to obscure the deep blue border around the logo graphic. Where The Best Comes Into View. LOGO ◆ 26 LOGO NOMENCLATURE ◆ 27 NOMENCLATURE BRIEF OVERVIEW The two new elements that compose the County’s nomenclature system are descriptive copy and a tagline. Descriptive copy briefly conveys what an organization is (e.g., “Worldwide Delivery Company” for UPS), while a tagline expresses how it wants to be perceived (e.g., “Made From Sugar So It Tastes Like Sugar” for Splenda sweetener). Lake County’s descriptive copy—“Lakes. Hills. Horizons.”—relates the natural assets that make the area unique in Florida. The County’s tagline—“Where The Best Comes Into View.”— references the area’s vistas and other amenities while suggesting that the ideal is always in sight. The descriptive copy and tagline work together to favorably articulate the essence of Lake County. These elements will often be combined with the logo for even greater impact. However they are used, maintaining the standards that follow will ensure the most effective communications possible. NOMENCLATURE ◆ 28 NOMENCLATURE DESCRIPTIVE COPY AND TAGLINE USAGE The following examples show the proper usage of the descriptive copy and tagline when used with the Lake County logo. The tagline can be used with the logo separately. However, the descriptive copy should NOT be used without the tagline. LAKES. HILLS. HORIZONS. Where The Best Comes Into View.

DESCRIPTIVE COPY AND TAGLINE USAGE NOMENCLATURE ◆ 29 NOMENCLATURE type standards ◆ 30 TYPE STANDARDS BRIEF OVERVIEW The typeface and type size used with a passage can communicate as much to the reader as the words themselves. Type helps establish mood, attract attention and promote visual harmony. As such, consistency in type usage is as important to the County’s branding program as it is for any other graphic element. Lake County’s graphic identity system includes the Trajan, ITC Garamond and Helvetica type families, with specific typefaces within each family dedicated to specific uses. Rigorous adherence to type standards will help the County maintain a unified brand. TYPE STANDARDS ◆ 31 TYPE STANDARDS LAKE COUNTY BRANDING TYPE FAMILIES trajan Trajan bold is the primary font for the Lake County branding program. Trajan Bold is used in the Lake County logotype, descriptive copy and department designations. Trajan Regular is used in the County business papers. Regular abcdefghijklmnopqrxtuvwxyz Bold abcdefghijklmnopqrxtuvwxyz ITC GARAMOND ITC Garamond is the secondary font for the Lake County branding program. ITC Garamond Book Italic is used for the Lake County tagline, and the the following ITC Garamond type family fonts can be used for body copy purposes. (This manual is typeset in 12 pt. Garamond Book.)

Prime examples of this are the headlines in this manual, which are set in Helvetica Black and Helvetica Black Oblique. Although this font is NOT used in the Lake County logotype, it can be used in body copy situations, such as ads or brochures.
