LiberArte / Logo usage guidelines

Crediting LiberArte

For grantees, partners, sponsors, press, and anyone who wants to use our logo. Please follow the rules below and download the official logo files at the bottom of this page.

02 / Clearspace

Clearspace

Each version of the logo needs space around it so it stays balanced and legible. Nothing else may sit in that space — no text, no graphics, no other logos — even if it doesn't overlap the logo.

Hummingbird alone

The space above and below the hummingbird equals half the hummingbird's height. The space to each side equals half its length.

Lettering (LIBER ARTE)

The space around the lettering is defined by the height and length of the letter A in the wordmark.

Full logo (lettering + hummingbird)

Same spacing as the lettering, plus the hummingbird sits to the right of the wordmark.

03 / Legibility

Legibility

The logo must always be easy to see and read. Keep it whole, upright, and evenly scaled.

Do

  • Use the full logo — the LIBER ARTE lettering with the hummingbird together.
  • Scale the logo up or down evenly so it stays legible and clear.
  • Keep the logo upright at all times.
  • Leave the clearspace empty around the logo.
  • On a colored background, switch to the black or white logo — whichever has the stronger contrast.

Don't

  • No other graphics or text inside the clearspace, even if they don't touch the logo.
  • Never stretch, squeeze, or warp the logo.
  • Never rotate, tilt, reflect, or otherwise transform the logo.
  • Never recolor the logo — no pink, blue, gradient, or multi-color versions.
  • Never split the colors: all parts of the logo (lettering and hummingbird) must be the same color.
  • Never place the logo on a background where it's hard to see.

04 / Credit line

Credit line

When acknowledging LiberArte's support, pair your own acknowledgment text with the logo. Keep the text outside the logo's clearspace — the logo itself is never changed to include other words or graphics.
