Holla Brand Guide

Brand Overview

This brand guide is designed to be a tool – a set of standards for creating and maintaining consistency across all facets of the Holla brand. It provides a foundation and specifications for logos, color palette, typography and applications to maintain the integrity of the brand. Every brand application, small or large, is important to the bigger picture; consistency is key.


Special Use Version

In addition to the primary logo, a special use logo is available under the Holla brand. The special use logo simplifies the logo into the Holla mark only, dropping the Addison Hollands” name. There are two potential situations that warrant this version: small use and internal audience application. 


When dropping below the minimum size (outlined later in this guide) the special use version is preferred for legibility and clarity. The other use, for the internal audience, is appropriate for the viewer that is already familiar with the Addison Hollands brand. It can allow for a more graphic look on materials or in context with the Addison Hollands name elsewhere on the piece.

Clear Space

It is very important the logo has proper clear space surrounding it – it should not be too close to any other graphic elements or the edge of a page. Be sure to refer to the diagram below when placing the logo into artwork.

Each follows a consistent structure that allows for variation while maintaining consistency. The current secondary logos are available for download below. It is important that the secondary logos follow the usage rules outlined above, as well. As the Holla brand grows, additional logos may be added.
