If Tolles were a person, they would:
Handle situations gracefully, stay updated on industry trends, have insights about neighborhoods and communities, communicate plainly and purposefully, be well-traveled and well-read, exude warmth, intelligence, stability, and empathy.
The Tolles logo is the most prominent visual representation of the organization in all instances and should be presented consistently and accurately to build recognition of the brand and effectively reflect the company’s image and identity.
In the included folder you will find sub folders containing .eps/.ai/.pdf files .jpg and .png files. If a vendor requests vector art/Illustrator/high resolution files, supply the .eps/.ai/.pdf files. If they request raster art, .jpg, or .png, supply them with the .jpg and .png files.
Tolles™ secondary logo represents management, but can still be used for development depending on the application. While the secondary/ management logo share the same safe space and sizing as development, they are differentiated by color, creating a distinct visual identity.
The Tolles™ icon features a downward-facing triangle, embedded with a capital ‘T’ inside. This distinctive design serves as an additional visual representation of
our brand.
The Tolles™ drak grey icon should always be placed on the top of “Thoughtful Development”.
Safe Space
The Tolles™ logo must have a safe space around the entire logo. All other graphics and text must be kept outside of the safe area to ensure legibility. To define this area, use the width and height of the O in Tolles™ in the corners to create a margin around the logo.
