1. The symbol – The sunny heart
Our symbol, the sunny heart, is the most important
part of our identity. A new brand and a new iden-
tity need time and space to grow into our customers
mind. Therefore we need to use our symbol with care
and precision.
On all our main communication areas across our
countries it is important to use our symbol in a con-
sistent way.

THE SUNNY HEART SYMBOL
MINIMUM SIZE
To maintain the logotype’s characteristics and read-
ability the sunny heart symbol should not be used
smaller than 10 mm in height.

THOMAS COOK CORE IDENTITY MANUAL 1.4 2013-09-05
In general, the heart should always be accompanied
by the wordmark. The symbol together with the
wordmark is our logotype, and it is the logotype that
should be the sender of all messages. An excep-
tion from this rule is if the customer have already
entered into ‘a Thomas Cook world’. It can be if you
are inside a store; at a resort, in an aircraft, on a bus
etc. The entrance/exit itself must always have a heart
accompanied by the wordmark, but INSIDE the world,
it is allowed to use the heart without the wordmark.

I a YOU
The sunny heart can be used as a relevant illustration if
the context describes for example the new identity.
Thesunnyheartsymbolisthecentralpartofouridentity.
With the heart we create a clear link between our
brands and our products. And we give our customers
a guide through their whole journey. Therefore
we need to be aware of how we use our symbol.
It should always be used with pride and never
as decoration.
1.3 The sunny heart – forbidden
Do not create new hearts.
Do not use the sunny heart as an
eye-catching illustration.
Do not use the sunny heart symbol as bullet points.

2. Logotype
LOGOTYPE VERSIONS
For the identity to work in all media and applications,
there is a need for flexible logotypes.
Two versions are available:
1. Symbol followed by wordmark
2. Symbol above wordmark
Where possible (in films, against imagery etc.) we use
the white version of the logotype (wordmark). Against
light backgrounds we use the grey wordmark.

2.3 Logotype – forbidden
A logotype is the most important part of a graphic
profile. To maintain the credibility and consistency
of our identity, our logotype should be handled
Never change the colour of the logotype.
Never add effects, such as shadowing
on the logotype.
Never use any other typeface for the logotype.
Never rotate or distort the logotype in any way.
Never create new constellations or new logos.
Exceptions to this rule are the product lines which will be used
during an interim period. Never create new product lines without

2.4 Logotype free zone
Avoid placing other graphics, text etc., close to the log-
otype. A good principle is to keep a free zone, equal to
the size of the logotype, around the logotype.

2.5 Logotype on background
To maintain the logotypes clarity and readability place
it primarily on calm, plain surfaces. Avoid placing it
against busy backgrounds.
It is recommended to place the logotype
on a sky background.
More vivid backgrounds work well if the logotype
stays clear and distinct.
Orange coloured backgrounds should
be avoided.
Water backgrounds give a good contrast
to the logotype.
Discreet shadows can be used on very vivid
backgrounds but only as long as they do not
distract the logotype.
The readability of the logotype should
always be good.
14. 14
THOMAS COOK CORE IDENTITY MANUAL 1.4 2013-09-05
2.6 Placement of logotype
The logotype should be placed in the top corners or
in the bottom right corner. The horizontal version is
primarily used in landscape formats (banners etc).
15. 15
THOMAS COOK CORE IDENTITY MANUAL 1.4 2013-09-05
2.6 Placement of logotype
When placing the logotype use the free zone as
minimum margins.
Do not place the logotype to close to borders.
Do not place the logotype to close to borders.

2.7 Digital formats
AI format (Adobe Illustrator Artwork), created
in Adobe Illustrator, for the files to be placed in
digital documents. Drawn with vector graphics.
Then it can be enlarged or reduced without los-
ing quality. The format can be used in digi-
tal production for web and print production.
Handled by most modern layout programs.
PNG is a format that works well in Microsoft Office pro-
grams; Word, PowerPoint, Excel, etc. Images saved in
this format do not lose their quality even though the
file is compressed. The format supports transparency
so that a logo saved in PNG can be placed against a
coloured background without a white panel behind
it. The logos for Word and PowerPoint are saved in the
PNG format.

3. Typography
As with the Thomas Cook symbol and logotype,
consistent use of our corporate typefaces re-
inforces and strengthens our core brand identity.
Typography can convey as much image and
emotion as other graphical elements.
We use two main typefaces, Thomas Headline for
headlines and FS Blake for body copy.

Thomas Headline is our headline typeface and has
been custom made for Thomas Cook on the basis that
it should compelement the shape of the Sunny Heart.

Avoid to much text within a graphic bubble.
Text within a graphic bubble should be short and di-

thing at once.

4. Colour palette
Colour is also a key element in our visual expression.
If used consistently, together with our logotype and
typography, our colour palette can create a powerful
visual expression. The Thomas Cook colours are chosen
todifferentiateusfromourcompetitors,toharmonize
with the sunny heart symbol and work well in different
communication units and backgrounds.
The Thomas Cook colours are divided into:
1. Main Colour Palette
2. Complementary Colour Palette
To accommodate different needs on different markets
the Complementary Colour Palette comes in two
alternative versions:
1. Distinct Palette
2. Flexible Palette
It is very important that each market only uses one or
the other of these alternative sets of the complemen-
tary colours. It is not allowed to mix colours between
the Distinct and Flexible Palette.
32. 32
THOMAS COOK CORE IDENTITY MANUAL 1.4 2013-09-05
4.1 Main Colour Palette
Thomas Cook uses the “sunny yellow”, blue, white,
black and grey in its main colour palette. They are all
central and integral part of our image and brand. The
sunny yellow is used for recognition, guidance and
navigation. Two shades of grey and white are our main
background colours on which we place our logotype.
Grey is also the colour of the wordmark in the Thom-
as Cook Group logotype. White gives openness and
creates balance in the identity. Blue should be used
sparsely, for example for headlines in communication.

4.2 Main Colour usage
Grey is used as background colour on for example
store signage and on airplanes. The grey could pref-
erably have a silvery/metallic finish, to emphasise
high tech and innovation.
White is often used as a background colour, for
example on signage at destination, where simplicity
and visibility are key.
The logotype should not be placed on plain
blue backgrounds, but is often placed on blue
images with motifs of seas, skies etc.

4.3 Complementary Colour Palette
In addition to the Main Colour Palette there is also a
Complementary Colour Palette. The purpose is to
support and enhance the main colours.
To accommodate different needs on different
markets there are two alternative sets of comple-
mentary colours: 1. Distinct Palette or 2. Flexible
Palette. It is very important that each market only
uses one or the other of these alternative sets of
the complementary colours. It is not allowed to mix
colours between the Distinct and Flexible Palette.
The complementary colours should not be seen
as an alternative to using the main colours, but as a
complement when you need additional colours, as
shown on the following pages.
ALT. 1 – DISTINCT PALETTE
ALT. 2 – FLEXIBLE PALETTE
For detailed guidelines about the
Distinct Palette see page 36–37.

MUTED COLORS
The previous brighter communication colours high-
lights a campaign message and makes it stand out
in a banner or in an advert. The muted colours help
separating information without highlighing each
message.
SEPARATING SEVERAL MESSAGES
The muted colours should be used in marketing
material where several messages (for example,
several hotel offers) needs to be presented and
separated.
ONLY FOR HEADLINES AND BUBBLES
The muted colours can only be used in headlines
and in bubbles. Never in markers.
On images preferably use a white bubble with
coloured text in one of the muted colours.
VISUAL JUDGEMENT!
A bubble with a muted colour can be combined with
a marker in one of the intense colours.

ment is required.

By usingcontrastingcoloursbetweenthemarker, the bubble andthe background, the message becomesmore
clear. And by letting the bubble and the headline have the same colour the overall impression becomes calmer.
Avoid using more than two colours (+ white) on one image.

4.8 About the colour system
PANTONE or PMS is an international system used to
select thousands of colours. It is widely used by de-
signers and printers. The colours are illustrated in cata-
logues together with a mixing recipe.
FOUR-COLOUR printing uses the four base
colours cyan (C), magenta (M), yellow (Y) and
black (K). These are mixed in various propor-
tions to achieve the required colour. Do not for-
get that there may be variations in the colours
depending on whether the paper is coated or un-
coated. Be very careful and choose the right blend of
colours for the paper selected.
NCS is a common system used mostly in Europe for
around 1,500 colours. The system is based on the
properties of colour that the human eye can readily
detect. Paint retailers often use this system.
RGB is a system consisting of the three base colours
red (R), green (G) and blue (B). These are mixed in vari-
ous proportions to achieve the re-quired colour on a
digital screen.

THOMAS COOK CORE IDENTITY MANUAL 1.4 2013-09-05
Every identity needs to have functionality. The sky
backgrounds enables quick and easy graphic produc-
tions with a high-level style which is especially useful in
at-destination productions.
With our Sunny Heart symbol we need a natural back-
ground. In advertising the symbol naturally becomes
the sun in the sky or the glowing heart at the ground.
In some applications it can be just the white paper but
in many below-the-line applications we need to pro-
vide backgrounds enhancing the idea of the Sunny
Heart or adding a high-level style and crafted appear-
ance.

All in-destination signage, Powerpoint presentations,

Skies cannot be used as primary execution, exceptions
are clear secondary or filler execution (e.g., back cover
of brochure, website background).

7.3 Tagline usage
The tagline can be placed together with the offering
(in the middle) or as an outro (lower left corner). The
tagline could also be placed as an ending to longer
body copy, for example on invitations. Do not place
the tagline as an intro (top left corner). On ads/posters
the recommendation is to place the tagline separated
from the logotype for maximum impact and visibility
of each element.
