03 โ Logo
Logo Usage
Give the mark room. Preserve its embossed gold detail against dark surfaces. Never distort, recolor, or reset on low-contrast backgrounds.


Do
- Place the logo on solid black or deep onyx surfaces.
- Maintain minimum clear space equal to the height of the "R" on all sides.
- Use a minimum height of 40px on screen and 12mm in print.
- Pair with Playfair Display for supporting headlines.
Don't
- Recolor, outline, or add drop shadows to the mark.
- Stretch, rotate, or crop the wordmark.
- Place on busy photography or bright, low-contrast backgrounds.
- Reproduce below the minimum size โ legibility of "PHOENYX" must be preserved.
Approved display sizes. Below h-6 the wordmark loses fidelity โ use the RP monogram only in those contexts.
