Logo


The logo is a single element. Smith Tower and the words "Garrett” and “Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary” should always appear together.  It is preferred that the tagline “Bold Leaders for the Church and the World” appear but pending one’s needs this is optional.

The size of the logo should not compromise the readability of the logo. The tower within the logo should be at least 1 and 1/4 inches in length.

Logo-Small


Enough space should be allowed around the logo. Text or images above the logo should be no closer than half the diameter of the tower. Text or images to the side or below the logo should be no closer then half the diameter of the tower.

Logo-with-Space


The logo should appear in one color only. If possible, use purple. If not, use the strongest color available. Do not use different colors for the different elements of the logo.

Logo-with-Two-Colors Logo-with-Two-Color-Tower


The full logo should always be shown. The logo should never be cropped or used as a design element.

Logo-Partial Logo-as-Watermark


The overall proportion of the logo should always be maintained. The logo should not be compressed or expanded.

Logo-Height Logo-Width


The logo should always be legible. The logo may overprint a solid background, but it should not appear over type, images, or gradient backgrounds. It should not be used as a decorative background element.
