calumetintro 1.0 date issued 30JUN06
Welcome to the new Calumet style guide. It has been put together to show the new corporate look for Calumet that has
been developed over the last few months. The objective of this new look is to project the Calumet brand in a compelling
and consistent way.
Why is this important? Because fundamentally a brand is made up of the perceptions that people have for it and if they
have a poor or inconsistent view of our brand, then we reduce its value to them and undermine our ability to meet our
commercial objectives. Equally, if we project our brand to our customers and potential customers in a way that is relevant,
engaging and aspirational then they will value us for our benefits, giving us their custom and their loyalty.
So what should the Calumet Brand be like? First of all we need to understand our intended customers. There are the
professionals of course. But now, with the relative reduced cost of high-end equipment and increased ease of use, there
is a growing overlap of advanced amateurs and professionals. Calumet is uniquely placed to cater for the more committed
advanced amateurs, a group we call ”PHOTOCRATS”.
We have established a focus for the Calumet brand which is encapsulated in the brand pyramid below. These are the
principles that act as the brief for the new design, and should be the principles upon which anything we do as Calumet is
based.

calumetintro 1.0 date issued 30JUN06
The vital and consistent expression of the Calumet brand will be fundamental to reaching our
goal of extending our position as the world’s leading top-end photographic retailer and joining
the club of world-class brands.
The guide itself includes items that you yourself will be able to take and adapt for your own
purposes in your own markets, e.g., the Calumet Focus sales flyer, stationery and black-and -
white product-press advertising. It also includes other items more for your information, e.g.,
packaging and brand advertising, to give you a better feel for the way Calumet intends to project
itself from now on.
What is important is that the guide is used to create consistency in our public face and across
all our operations, from a coffee mug to an exhibition stand, from the U.S. to Europe.

the rewards that our
customers seek.
the calumet brand pyramid exists for one reason:
to crystalize our identity.
calumetlogo 2.0 logo date issued 30JUN06
The logo has been very slightly redrawn to remove some inconsistencies, and kerned (the letters re-spaced) to achieve a
more elegant and balanced corporate symbol. The word ‘photographic’ has also been reduced in weight to prevent the
counters, that is the spaces inside the letters, from filling in when used at smaller sizes. It has also been kerned and
resized to achieve better visual alignment with the brand name.

calumetlogo 2.2 tagline date issued 30JUN06
Our new tagline is ‘IT’S WHERE THE PROS GO’. This replaces ‘THE PHOTO EXPERTS’ as our strategic positioning
statement, and is designed to reflect our position as the pre-eminent supplier of photographic equipment to the best
photographers in the world. It should always be used in the form shown here. It rarely appears without the Calumet logo,
and permission should be sought to do so. The tagline should be used on all advertising and promotional material, but not
on corporate/internal material.
The logo must be displayed in a field of black, with a minimum space of twice the width of the letterform “C” equally spaced
around the logo . When used in four-color process printing, a rich black (40c 30m 30y 100K) is highly recommended.

calumetfonts 3.0 font usage date issued 30JUN06
We have chosen two new fonts to be used in all communications, corporate literature and packaging.
They are DIN, which is used for main headlines and in some cases body copy, and Helvetica condensed, which is used as
an alternative body copy font where space is at a premium, e.g., within the Calumet Focus sales flyer.

calumetcolours 4.0 color usage date issued 30JUN06
Apart from Calumet red, black and of course white, we have introduced a new colour, a blue grey to complement them and
to be used where a different accent is required. It can be used solid or in tints. There are various examples in this guide
where you can see its use.

calumetpackaging 5.0 samples date issued 30JUN06
The Calumet brand product range packaging has been redesigned. The objective is to modernise the look of our products
and to emphasize their premium nature as well as to introduce some conformity across the store. The examples here
demonstrate how the new look will be applied to a variety of product ranges.
Colours:
Always put the product name and description in the black area.
The grey is Pantone 5425, and the logo set at 85% tint of Pantone 5425.
Put all information copy on the back of packaging, white out of black.

The sales flyer has been redesigned borrowing a more editorial look. The intention is to give more of a feeling of dialogue
between Calumet and it’s customers. This will be achieved by the inclusion of articles featuring Calumet’s professional
customers, either discussing their work, techniques they use or the type of equipment featured.
Products can also be shown in use in an editorial style rather than just as a cut out image with a description and price.
Quark files will be provided for you to use to generate your own sales flyers, incorporating the cover design and the internal
spreads, in both three and four column grids.

WHEN STEVE ISN’T BUSY
SHOOTING IN HIS STUDIO,
YOU’LL FIND HIM SHOOTING
THE BREEZE AT OUR PLACE.
In his 12,000-square-foot Chicago studio, you can find Steve Grubman shooting everything from 5,000-
pound elephants to tiny, fluttering hummingbirds. And while Steve doesn’t just limit himself to animals, it’s his flexibility as a shooter that
allows him to capture the decisive moment with tough subjects. With flexibility like this, anything is possible — like making a Viper smile.
We spent some time with Steve, sharing some of his more memorable and challenging projects. You can enjoy the complete story, along
with a gallery of his images, on our website at www.calumetphoto.com/grubman. Steve
Grubman has been a Calumet customer for more than 20 years. Throughout this time he has
come to rely on us to provide him with his photographic equipment as well as our practical
advice to help him on his thrilling journeys — because it’s a jungle out there.

The brand advertising campaign is aimed at increasing Calumet’s customer base by targeting serious amateur
enthusiasts. To this end the campaign embodies the thought ‘IT’S WHERE THE PROS GO.’ Calumet’s credentials as the
place to go for superior advice is demonstrated using the example of our existing professional customers. The desired take
out is ‘If Calumet is where the pros come for equipment and advice, it must be the best place for me to go, too’. The beauty
of this campaign is that it can run globally, while using photographers local to each market.

  • 3. calumetintro 1.0 date issued 30JUN06 Welcome to the new Calumet style guide. It has been put together to show the new corporate look for Calumet that has been developed over the last few months. The objective of this new look is to project the Calumet brand in a compelling and consistent way. Why is this important? Because fundamentally a brand is made up of the perceptions that people have for it and if they have a poor or inconsistent view of our brand, then we reduce its value to them and undermine our ability to meet our commercial objectives. Equally, if we project our brand to our customers and potential customers in a way that is relevant, engaging and aspirational then they will value us for our benefits, giving us their custom and their loyalty. So what should the Calumet Brand be like? First of all we need to understand our intended customers. There are the professionals of course. But now, with the relative reduced cost of high-end equipment and increased ease of use, there is a growing overlap of advanced amateurs and professionals. Calumet is uniquely placed to cater for the more committed advanced amateurs, a group we call ”PHOTOCRATS”. We have established a focus for the Calumet brand which is encapsulated in the brand pyramid below. These are the principles that act as the brief for the new design, and should be the principles upon which anything we do as Calumet is based. the calumet target pros photocrats
  • 4. calumetintro 1.0 date issued 30JUN06 The vital and consistent expression of the Calumet brand will be fundamental to reaching our goal of extending our position as the world’s leading top-end photographic retailer and joining the club of world-class brands. The guide itself includes items that you yourself will be able to take and adapt for your own purposes in your own markets, e.g., the Calumet Focus sales flyer, stationery and black-and - white product-press advertising. It also includes other items more for your information, e.g., packaging and brand advertising, to give you a better feel for the way Calumet intends to project itself from now on. What is important is that the guide is used to create consistency in our public face and across all our operations, from a coffee mug to an exhibition stand, from the U.S. to Europe. Steve Sammons To empower the world of image makers. Edgy, Professional, Welcoming, Infectious Enthusiasm. Calumet is the one stop centre of excellence for all your photographic needs. Satisfied, Understood, Being part of the community, Inspired. Easy access through all sales channels, one-stop imaging resource, relevant edited selection, value for money, people who know. ESSENCE PERSONALITY PROPOSITION EMOTIONAL REWARDS FUNCTIONAL BENEFITS So everyone inside the company and out knows who we are and what we stand for. The personality of the brand are traits we share with our clients. This sets Calumet apart. It defines the Calumet offering, both online and in our stores. What the brand does for our consumers on an emotional level. How our products and services deliver the rewards that our customers seek. the calumet brand pyramid exists for one reason: to crystalize our identity.
  • 5. calumetlogo 2.0 logo date issued 30JUN06 The logo has been very slightly redrawn to remove some inconsistencies, and kerned (the letters re-spaced) to achieve a more elegant and balanced corporate symbol. The word ‘photographic’ has also been reduced in weight to prevent the counters, that is the spaces inside the letters, from filling in when used at smaller sizes. It has also been kerned and resized to achieve better visual alignment with the brand name. 2 Color 100% Pantone 185 100% Black 4 Color Process Calumet Red = 100m 100y Calumet Black = 40c 30m 30y 100k 1 Color 100% Black 2 Color 100% Pantone 185 100% Black 4 Color Process Calumet Red = 100m 100y Calumet Black = 40c 30m 30y 100k 1 Color 100% Black Use this version in all Calumet marketing material and advertisements This version is for use in all corporate and internal material. DO NOT use in any marketing material.

  • 7. calumetlogo 2.2 tagline date issued 30JUN06 Our new tagline is ‘IT’S WHERE THE PROS GO’. This replaces ‘THE PHOTO EXPERTS’ as our strategic positioning statement, and is designed to reflect our position as the pre-eminent supplier of photographic equipment to the best photographers in the world. It should always be used in the form shown here. It rarely appears without the Calumet logo, and permission should be sought to do so. The tagline should be used on all advertising and promotional material, but not on corporate/internal material. The logo must be displayed in a field of black, with a minimum space of twice the width of the letterform “C” equally spaced around the logo . When used in four-color process printing, a rich black (40c 30m 30y 100K) is highly recommended. IT’S WHERE THE PROS GO MINIMUM SIZE: 1” [25MM] WIDTH X X X X XX X X
  • 8. calumetlogo 2.3 Incorrect Usage date issued 30JUN06 Incorrect uses of the Calumet logo These are examples that illustrate common misuses of the Calumet logo. Always use the authorized electronic logo art provided by Calumet. DO NOT distort logo in any way. DO NOT add any other color than black behind the logo. DO NOT reverse out of any other color than black. DO NOT move tagline position. DO NOT try and recreate the Calumet logo using fonts. DO NOT crop the logo in any way. There is a designated amout of black spaced around the letterforms. (see 2.0 logo) DO NOT add a screened black to the logo DO NOT add an image behind logo. CALUMET PHOTOGRAPHIC
  • 9. calumetfonts 3.0 font usage date issued 30JUN06 We have chosen two new fonts to be used in all communications, corporate literature and packaging. They are DIN, which is used for main headlines and in some cases body copy, and Helvetica condensed, which is used as an alternative body copy font where space is at a premium, e.g., within the Calumet Focus sales flyer. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 1234567890 DIN-light abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 1234567890 DIN-regular abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 1234567890 DIN-medium abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 1234567890 DIN-bold abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 1234567890 DIN-black abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 1234567890 Helvetica Condensed
  • 10. calumetcolours 4.0 color usage date issued 30JUN06 Apart from Calumet red, black and of course white, we have introduced a new colour, a blue grey to complement them and to be used where a different accent is required. It can be used solid or in tints. There are various examples in this guide where you can see its use. Pantone: 5425 CMYK: 35/9/0/36 Pantone: 185 CMYK: 0/100/100/0 Black CMYK: 40/30/30/100
  • 11. calumetpackaging 5.0 samples date issued 30JUN06 The Calumet brand product range packaging has been redesigned. The objective is to modernise the look of our products and to emphasize their premium nature as well as to introduce some conformity across the store. The examples here demonstrate how the new look will be applied to a variety of product ranges. Colours: Always put the product name and description in the black area. The grey is Pantone 5425, and the logo set at 85% tint of Pantone 5425. Put all information copy on the back of packaging, white out of black. Font / Product Name: DIN Bold, all lower case Font / Product Description & size: DIN Regular, all lower case TOP LABEL SIDE LABEL label label

  • 13. calumetcollateral 6.0 seamless paper date issued 30JUN06 A similar design rationale will be applied to store product literature as has been applied to the packaging itself. This example shows how a simple line drawing style may also be used for product illustration purposes.

NOTE: When printing process four-colour, use a RICH BLACK (40c 30m 30y 100k). Large image on cover use same aspect ratio as image in brand advertisments. The sales flyer has been redesigned borrowing a more editorial look. The intention is to give more of a feeling of dialogue between Calumet and it’s customers. This will be achieved by the inclusion of articles featuring Calumet’s professional customers, either discussing their work, techniques they use or the type of equipment featured. Products can also be shown in use in an editorial style rather than just as a cut out image with a description and price. Quark files will be provided for you to use to generate your own sales flyers, incorporating the cover design and the internal spreads, in both three and four column grids.

  • 18. WHEN STEVE ISN’T BUSY SHOOTING IN HIS STUDIO, YOU’LL FIND HIM SHOOTING THE BREEZE AT OUR PLACE. In his 12,000-square-foot Chicago studio, you can find Steve Grubman shooting everything from 5,000- pound elephants to tiny, fluttering hummingbirds. And while Steve doesn’t just limit himself to animals, it’s his flexibility as a shooter that allows him to capture the decisive moment with tough subjects. With flexibility like this, anything is possible — like making a Viper smile. We spent some time with Steve, sharing some of his more memorable and challenging projects. You can enjoy the complete story, along with a gallery of his images, on our website at www.calumetphoto.com/grubman. Steve Grubman has been a Calumet customer for more than 20 years. Throughout this time he has come to rely on us to provide him with his photographic equipment as well as our practical advice to help him on his thrilling journeys — because it’s a jungle out there.
