Logo clear space and minimum size

Summary

A construction spec page that defines the protective clear space around the Microsoft Bing logo and its minimum reproduction size in both pixels and physical measurements.

Visual description

White background with a short left-column note that the Microsoft Bing logo is the preferred mark for marketing. The right area is split into two stacked diagram blocks. The top block, labeled "Minimum clear space," shows the full color horizontal logo surrounded by gray two-by-two square placeholder modules at each corner and edge, with dashed boundary lines indicating the exclusion zone (the colored four-square mark used as the spacing unit). The bottom block, labeled "Minimum size," shows two small logo lockups side by side: one captioned "By height" (symbol never smaller than 20 pixels tall on screen, .22 inch / 5.5 mm in print) and one captioned "By width" (logo never smaller than 72 pixels wide on screen, 1 inch / 25.4 mm in print), each with a thin measurement bracket. A footer with page number "5" sits bottom-left.

Key takeaway

Using the brand's own four-square mark as the clear-space measuring unit, drawn as gray placeholder modules, makes the exclusion zone self-documenting and tied to the logo itself. Splitting minimum size into separate "by height" and "by width" cases with both screen and print values is a thorough, copy-ready pattern.

Reuse notes

A standard, reusable template for the clear-space and minimum-size rules every logo guideline needs. The gray-module exclusion-zone diagram works for any mark with a repeatable geometric unit. Giving both pixel and physical minimums covers digital and print teams in one page. Keep it monochrome and diagrammatic so the focus stays on spacing, not color.
