offiCiaL CoLoursthe official colour for all devices is Pantone® 541. Black can be used for outdoor signage. rGB 0-51-102 is the closest web-safe equivalent to Pantone® 541. Wherever possible, devices should appear in these colours or cmyK equivalent.
Where material is being produced in one or two colours, devices may be printed in the predominant colour or black, provided this does not impact on the integrity of the device.
Where the background is a solid dark colour, devices may be reversed out.
if the devices are transparent, the area surrounding the southern cross stars and the text within the main block should reveal the underlying background colour and should not default to white on a coloured background. for reasons of clarity and impact, consideration should be given to the appropriate contrast between the background and the device.

the amount of clearspace to be allowed around each device is equal to the height of the letter ‘V’ in Victoria for all devices, regardless of format or version. this is a scalable measurement, so that clearspace increases with device size.

04 Victorian coat of armsthe Victorian coat of arms (hereafter referred to as the coat of arms) may be used on Victorian Government publications that are tabled in Parliament, such as annual reports.
usage
approval should be sought when the coat of arms is to appear alongside all other state and territory coats of arms.
the coat of arms is not to be used by any person or organisation other than the Victorian Government. unauthorised use is subject to penalty under the Unauthorised Documents Act 1958. approval for commercial use or advertising will not be given.
there is only one authorised image of the coat of arms. stylised versions or other artistic interpretations are not permitted.
the coat of arms should not appear more than once in a publication and should be on the cover rather than the title page.
the paramount position for the coat of arms is top left-hand corner, followed by the top centre. it may be placed in other positions provided that no wording or illustration appears above it. to do otherwise will detract from its dignity and will breach protocol.
if a department’s or authority’s logo also appears on the cover, it must be visually subordinate to the coat of arms. there must be no visual suggestion that a department or agency is of equal or greater rank than the state of Victoria.
under no circumstances may the coat of arms be used as a decorative device. approval is rarely given for use on memento, souvenir or collectors’ items and is not approved for use on any sporting apparel. the Victorian Government insignia maybe used when representing a sporting association.
for non-government use of the coat of arms, contact Protocol and special events, dPc on (03) 9651 5175 or [email protected]

06 community information BillBoardsthe community information billboard initiative is a common signage program for all Victorian Government departments and agencies. this initiative is one way to inform the community about taxpayer-funded public works that are occurring throughout the state.
the purpose of this style guide is to standardise the production of community information Billboards and make the billboards visually and structurally consistent.
usage
Government departments and agencies must erect community information billboards for all new budget-sector capital works which cost $10,000 or more. ministers are responsible for deciding whether projects should be excluded from displaying a community information billboard.
construction
community information billboards are to be erected at the front of a site three weeks before works commence and removed no later than three weeks after completing the project.
the community information billboard should be the only free standing sign on the site. However, it can be wall mounted if there is insufficient room on the premises. any contracts and construction company signage should be attached to the structure under construction.
more than one sign can be erected where the site has more than one entry point, for example with major roadwork projects.
siGn tYpesthere are four sign types available for use. the type and size of the sign is determined by the cost of the project.
