    Visual Identity

    Our visual identity system forms the foundation of Simio’s brand expression, creating immediate recognition and reinforcing our position as leaders in digital twin simulation technology.

    Simio Logo Brand Signature

    The Simio Logo Brand Signature is the cornerstone of our visual identity, embodying our bold, timeless, and technical approach. Consisting of our distinctive triangle mark, wordmark, and optional “Forward Thinking” tagline, this signature has been carefully crafted to reinforce Simio as a trusted developer of simulation software.

    Signature Components

    Triangle: This distinctive visual identifier anchors our brand signature. Its visual relationship to the wordmark is precisely designed and should never be altered or repositioned.

    Wordmark: The Simio wordmark features adjusted letterforms that cannot be replicated through typesetting. Always use the approved artwork files rather than attempting to recreate the wordmark.

    Tagline: Our “Forward Thinking” tagline may be omitted in certain circumstances where space is limited or when the signature appears at smaller sizes.

    Signature: Together the triangle mark, wordmark and tagline are known as the brand signature

    Signature Clear Space

    Clear space is the protected area around the signature that maximizes its impact. This space must be kept free of all other graphics and text, including other logos. It is also the minimum distance the signature can be from the edges of an electronic document or printed piece.

    To preserve the signature’s prominence, no additional iconography, marks or artwork may be used in conjunction with it or any secondary signature.

    Approved secondary identity elements may be used as supporting art, but they should always be clearly delineated from the signature.

    Defining Clear Space

    Clear space is defined using the triangle mark in the signature. The minimum clear space equals the width of the triangle mark and should be maintained on all sides of the signature. This ensures the signature remains visually distinct and its impact is not diminished by competing elements.

    Minimum Size

    To ensure legibility and brand integrity, the Simio signature must never appear smaller than:

    • Print applications: 1.20 inch (44.45 mm) in width
    • Digital applications: 115 pixels in width
    • When using the signature with tagline, maintain a minimum width of 1.20 inch (44.45 mm) for print and 115 pixels for digital applications

    For applications requiring a smaller brand presence, use signature without the tagline, which should never appear smaller than 0.25 inches (6.35mm) or 18 pixels.

    Signature Color Usage

    Consistent application of our signature colors is essential for maintaining brand integrity across all touchpoints. The Simio brand signatures are fixed pieces of art that represent our identity in its most distilled form. To preserve their impact and ensure consistent representation, never attempt to recreate a signature from scratch or alter the artwork in any way. Adding strokes, glows, shadows, or other design effects around or behind the signature compromises our brand integrity and is strictly prohibited. These guidelines ensure our brand maintains its professional appearance and instant recognition in all applications.

    Full Color Signature

    The full color signature is the recommended format version and should be used whenever possible. This version best represents our brand and creates the strongest visual impact.

    Limited Color Signature

    For instances when the full color signature is not appropriate, a 1-color solid black or white version has been created to ensure the brand signature reproduces at the highest quality. These versions should be used when technical limitations prevent the use of the full color signature or when placed on backgrounds that would compromise its visibility.

    Logo Do-Nots

    To protect the integrity of our brand, never:

    Add strokes, glows, shadows, or other effects to the signature

    Use the full color signature over dense photography or complicated backgrounds

    Attempt to recreate the signature using other fonts

    Distort, skew, or stretch the signature beyond its original proportions

    Create custom colorways not specified in these guidelines

    Separate the triangle mark from the wordmark unless using the approved standalone mark

    Color Palette

    The brand look is established using this set of signature brand colors. Our color palette is strategically designed to communicate Simio’s brand attributes while creating visual impact across all applications. The brand relies heavily upon the use of clean white space to balance the richness of imagery and the vibrancy of the color palette.

    • Ensure sufficient contrast for text legibility
    • Consider accessibility requirements

    The thoughtful application of gradients can enhance our visual identity while maintaining the clean, sophisticated aesthetic that defines the Simio brand.
