An organization’s corporate identity is the most important element of its image. Because of its potential for credibility and influence, and the impression it has on its public, a corporate identity would be considered the foundation of all marketing and communications efforts. An effective identity – one that is easily recognized and visually appealing – is quite powerful. Above all, an organization’s corporate identity should demonstrate its commitment to quality, its staff, its public, and most importantly, to its own goals. It must make a memorable impression, one that clearly communicates the company’s basic mission and philosophy and reflects its significance. A single, consistent message, therefore is key.

Logos

This is the icon of the official logo.
This is the wordmark of the official logo.
All forms of the Port Houston logo must have a designated amount of clear space on all sides unoccupied by other elements. This is to ensure the logo’s visual clarity and effectiveness. This means the logo must never be cluttered by other elements such as text, photographs, illustrations, or background textures. “x“ equals 1/4”. The clear space is a 1x area around the entire Signature. This rule applies to all versions of the Port Houston logo on all mediums.
