SONY Logo Usage Guideline

The Sony logo (“Logo”) must always stand-alone. An isolation zone equal to the height and width of the “O” in the SONY logo must surround the Logo.

Do not use the Logo in a sentence, caption or headline.

Do not alter the Logo in any manner. It may not be stretched, condensed, italicized, shaded, or used in outline form. The logo should not be used vertically, diagonally, in a circular fashion or otherwise distorted.

The Logo should never be combined with or placed in close proximity to trademarks or trade names of other companies.

Do not display the Logo against a background that reduces its clarity.

Do not use patterns or designs that will weaken the impact of the Logo.

Do not use the Logo as a background pattern.

The Logo should only be reproduced in one of the following colors:
• Sony Blue (Blue 90)
• Black
• White
• Dark Gray
• Light Gray

This Guide should not be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right of use of the Sony logo without the written permission of Sony. This guide should also not be construed as granting approval for proper use of the Sony logo. All use of the Sony logo must be reviewed and approved by Sony.
