Logos & Branding
The eXp Realty logo represents us at the very highest level and is vitally important to our brand. It acts as a signature, an identifier and a stamp of quality. It is, and should always be, the most consistent component in our communications. In order to maintain this consistency, a few simple guidelines should be followed.
COMPLIANCE NOTES:
The eXp Realty logo should never be recreated or typeset.
Only official logo files should be used in communications.
The eXp Realty as shown here will serve as the company’s primary logo and trademark.
You cannot recolor or modify the eXp logos. For example, you can't turn the white exp logo to pink to match your color scheme.

Beyond our logo, color is the most recognizable aspect of our brand identity. Our brand colors reflect our bold, diverse community. Using color appropriately is one of the easiest ways to make sure our materials reflect a cohesive eXp Realty brand.
Please use the following color guide:
- HEX colors should be used when designing for screens or desktop printing.
- CMYK color should be used when designing for 4-color printing (C=cyan, M=magenta, Y=yellow, K=black).
- RGB color is to be used on computer and television screens (R=red, G=green, B=blue).
- Pantone Uncoated is a single spot color created by Pantone formatted for matte finishes.
- Pantone Coated is a single spot color created by Pantone formatted for glossy finishes.
PRIMARY COLOR PALETTE
The primary color palette is a very important brand element as it helps to tie-in all the elements, assets and templates. All exp assets should feel part of the same identity and therefore must have a coherent color treatment.
Brand Blue - Clear and reassuring, this is our main color. It can be seen in the logo and in all eXp assets, and drives brand recognition and cohesion.
Brand Orange - Vibrant and dynamic, the new brand orange is our action color. It is meant to draw attention to the most important UI elements, such as buttons, as well as tasteful accents in the brand pattern.
Black - For optimum text legibility and contrast on white and light backgrounds we use Black.
White - In the same way, on full color or dark backgrounds we use white text.
Brand Blue - Hex #19469D
Brand Orange - Hex #f5821F
White - Hex #fffffff Black - Hex #000000
SECONDARY COLOR PALETTE
Expanding on the primary color palette, we added a few more options, Light Blue, Dark Blue, Light Grey and Dark Grey.
Light Blue - Hex #699abd
Dark Blue - Hex #1b1e2a
Light Grey - Hex #e2e3e4
Dark Grey - Hex #58595a
LOGO VARIATIONS
The logo can appear in Black only for black-and-white and gray-scale scenarios.
Our logo should never be too small to read. We’ve set a minimum size of 0.8 in or 60 pixels. Based on the standard range, the recommended sizes are shown here. There should be enough clear space at the top of the logo to allow for this in print or online applications. It is not recommended to use the logo at less than 0.8 in in width.
Take into account that the icon is not the brand logo and should never replace the main eXp logo. It works great for an app icon or website favicon.
There are no maximum size limit, but use discretion when sizing the logo. It should never be the most dominant element on the page, but instead should live comfortably and clearly as an identifying mark.
To ensure that clear space is maintained around the logo for legibility and prominence, photos, text and graphic elements must follow the guidelines illustrated here. Use the letter “x” as a measuring tool to help maintain clearance.
App Icon 32x32
INCORRECT USAGE

Disproportionately scale the logo.
Change the logo’s colors.

not previously specified.

BRAND PATTERN
The brand pattern is the mark of our brand, it has the sole purpose of making our assets and imagery more ownable, sophisticated and polished.
It is comprised of different sections of the “X” in the logo and is meant to convey growth, positivity and a forward-looking mindset by extending the upper right “arm”.
For flexibility, we have the choice of a “close view”, over to the right, as well as a “broad view” version, on the next page.
Usage:
Full color on print assets (ex. business cards), no transparency.
When using on web assets over imagery, always make sure to use at 10% transparency in order to allow the background to be seen through it.
Optionally, different blending modes can be used (Screen, Overlay, Multiply) depending on context. If in doubt please seek guidance from our creative team.
"X Close View"
"X Broad View"
BRAND TYPOGRAPHY
Typography is an essential tool in the development of a brand identity and is a key element to create a distinct and cohesive look across all communications. Our chosen font, Roboto, is clean, modern and well-suited to a wide range of applications, particularly digital.
IMAGERY & LOGO PLACEMENT
Care must be taken to create well-balanced and considered compositions.
When placing the logo over photography, choose a light- or solid-colored area to ensure the logo does not get lost in the background.
