Otis College Logos

  • Primary Stack Logo

    Characteristics: vertical configuration, formal usage
    When to use: The stacked logo should be used whenever possible as the primary identifier for Otis College of Art and Design. The primary stacked logo consists of the college icon built within a vertical configuration of the wordmark. Combined in this manner, these elements create a distinct logo for Otis, which should never be recreated or replicated. Always use approved artwork, which can be downloaded below.

    Primary Stack Logo Black
    Primary Stack Logo White
  • Secondary Block Logo

    Characteristics: square configuration, informal usage
    When to use: The block logo should only be used when space is limited or when an abbreviated expression of the brand is understood due to the proximity of the full name of the College being spelled out in headline messaging or displayed by another brand element (such as the wordmark). The secondary block logo consists of an abbreviated configuration of the college icon and wordmark. Combined in this manner, these elements create a distinct logo for Otis, which should never be recreated or replicated. Always use approved artwork, which can be downloaded below.
