What is logo clear space?

Clear space is the minimum empty area that must surround a logo, so other elements do not crowd it.

Why it matters

A logo pressed against text or the edge of a page loses impact and looks careless. Guidelines define the space with a unit taken from the logo itself.

Example

A guide sets the clear space as the height of the letter E in the wordmark, on all four sides.
