The International logotype is one of our most important identity assets. The diamond shape has been a representation of the International brand since 1986. Combined with a customized wordmark, the optimized symbol creates a distinct and impactful logotype, with the center space of the symbol visualizing a road.

The logotype is our sign-off or endorsement. It’s always positioned in a way that telegraphs authority and trustworthiness — core tenets of the International brand.

Lockup

The International lockup is a combination of the symbol and wordmark. Together they become the strongest carrier of our brand. The lockup must never be altered, colored, or combined with any other names or elements.

The lockup is carefully constructed and visually balanced. Always use the provided lockup file.

Symbol

Our symbol acts as a representation of the International brand in its most reduced and simplified form. It can be used as an endorsing mark or as a sign-off but should only be used as a standalone element when the International context is already evident.

The symbol must never be altered, colored, or combined with any other names or elements. The symbol is carefully constructed and visually balanced. Always use the provided symbol file.

Clearspace

The clearspace of the International symbol and lockup provide adequate space to ensure visibility and establish a clear hierarchy in relationship to additional design elements.

The clearspace is equal to the height of the symbol, marked by 'X'. The defined clearspace is a minimum and should be increased wherever possible.

Placement

The logotype is primarily placed in alignment with the left-hand margin, at either the top, middle, or bottom, depending on the content of the application. In some instances, due to content and format restrictions, it can also be placed in the secondary position, aligning with the right-hand margin.

Occasionally a centered logotype is preferred, but the primary and secondary placements are the most commonly used.

Specific use cases

Sizing

Lockup

Ensure the lockup is scaled appropriately for clarity and visual balance. The recommended width is 20–60% of the format's shortest side. For portrait formats, this means the width; for landscape, it means the height.

If needed, adjust the lockup in 10% increments. Use practical judgment to avoid it becoming too dominant or compromising legibility/visibility.

App icons & avatars

In digital applications for avatars and profile pictures, we utilize the International symbol. The width of the symbol is equal to half of the width of the format.

The symbol is centered and optically adjusted vertically for optimal representation.
