Primary Colours
The Listening Place logo
The TLP logo is central to our brand and is the most recognisable element of our visual identity.


Logo exclusion zones and minimum size
The logo should have enough space around it to keep it’s legibility. The exclusion zone is defined by the size of the ‘Brand mark’.
Our logos have been created for use at a minimum size of 30mm and 40mm. Online, the minimum size is 80 pixels. There are no maximum size rules.
Logo don’ts
Never alter our logotype. It weakens our visual identity appearance and confuses our overall message. Only use original artwork files.

Photography
The TLP hero photography should capture the essence of the TLP mission – To provide face-to-face support for people who feel life is no longer worth living. This can be expressed through visitor meeting images.
Visitors should be the focal point of the photographic composition with the listening volunteers back to the shot. The photography should be diverse, inclusive and represent both the TLP visitors and listening volunteers.
Building and location photography should capture the personality of the venue. Focus on architecture that is unique and compelling. Where possible capture any foliage and flowers in the shot, finally make sure the weather is sunny to maximise the lighting.
Volunteer and staff portraits should capture the uniqueness of the individual and be diverse, inclusive and representative.
