Visual Style

Photos and design elements should help Oliver tell a story in line with our voice and tone.

Photography

Photos should capture a “moment” in everyday life that is natural and authentic. Photography should:

• Show an emotional connection that’s relatable, in realistic scenes that are not posed or too carefully styled

• Share something special (e.g. behind the scenes, celebratory)

• Portray subjects “surrounded” or enveloped by an experience or environment, a “natural state.”

14

Design Elements Treatments in support of the Oliver brand should show a refined but uncomplicated experience – no frills. Rather, smooth curves, white space, earthy tones convey our brand’s playful elegance. Use these elements as design tools to illustrate our brand and create cohesion.

1. Be selective and demanding about quality.This applies to curation of our landscape, creation of our products, and the customer experience.

» Did we pay attention to the details? » Is this the highest quality solution we can present?

2. Make choices that show the authenticity of the Oliver brand.

Think about this when selecting building materials, merchandise, and sponsorships or brand associations.

» Do the aesthetics fit? Are the textures and materials warm and inviting? » Does a product or brand affiliation align with our commitment to craft and quality? » Is the good made “of or from the earth” — metals, wood, cloth, glass, paper?

Brand Standards

In every choice we make, from maintenance to merchandise, we must consider the implications on the Oliver Winery brand. These four standards reflect our company values. Adhere to them with vigilance.

3. Put people first.

People are the heart of our business. Our services, events, and merchandise should enhance the lives of customers and our community.

» Would you share a product or experience with your own loved ones? » Is it the right thing to do?

4. Be consistent.

A brand is more than just a name or a logo. Adhere to the brand guide with vigilance.

» Are these colors, fonts, and materials consistent with the Oliver identity? » Am I speaking, writing, or representing Oliver in the appropriate voice and tone?

Branded Merchandise

Three logo versions are approved for use on merchandise or apparel. The following guidelines will help establish how and when to use each type.

Official Corporate Apparel Colors

Official Corporate Apparel Thread/Ink Guidelines• “Oliver” should always be represented in PMS 1215 or muted gold. NOTE: With Land’s End, thread color is “goldenrod.” At Bloomington Select Embroidery, brand-consistent thread colors are 1670 or 1305.

• If using the “O” logo, use two thread colors. Thread for the “O” should be the same color as the garment. For example, on a gray sweater “Oliver” is muted gold, “O” is gray. On black, “Oliver” is muted gold, “O” is black. See examples above.

Corporate Apparel

Even the color of an employee’s logowear can help Oliver Winery show a strong, consistent, and thoughtful brand presence. These styles were selected because of their consistency across vendors and their tie to the Oliver core color family.
