Brand guidelines
How to use the Kislap name, logo and colours. Listed businesses, press and community groups are welcome to use them to point people to Kislap.
Logo
A kiwi under a rising sun. Kislap began in New Zealand, and kislap means “sparkle” in Filipino. The kiwi is drawn only from circles and straight lines: its back, head, beak and belly are arcs, and every corner is a smaller circle that meets both edges exactly. The sun’s lower edge follows the kiwi’s back at an even distance.
The wordmark is set in Geist Bold. The dot on the “i” is a true circle, like the kiwi’s eye. “Kis” is red and “lap” is blue.
Layouts
Use the logo as supplied. Choose the layout that suits the space; don’t combine the symbol and wordmark in a new arrangement.
Clear space and size
Keep a margin around the logo at least as tall as the “K” in Kislap. Nothing else should enter it: text, edges, other logos.
