Font & Signature
The exclusive writing style
for the Korean alphabet is used chiefly for the names of Daesung's
affiliate companies and for brand names. It has been specially developed
to harmonize with the logotype to achieve a uniform image.
In using characters, photoengraving production methods or slide-film-based
projection reproduction methods must be employed in principle. Characters
may, however, be designed and used according to the individual characters'
features for as long as they have the same composition principles
as the characters listed in this manual.
Space between characters may very depending on the
conditions and requirements of the medium to be used.
The arrangement intervals are classified into 1a, 1.5a, 2.5a and
4a, with the height of a whole character being 8a. Caution should
be taken not to damage the formative image or disturb the balance.
Daesung's English writing style is used
chiefly for English titles in visual media, and is specially designated
to harmonize with the English logotype as well as with the Korean
and Chinese logotypes so as to achieve greater image uniformity.
The signature is designed with the intention of systematically
and effectively combining the corporate identification system's basic
elements, i.e., the logo and the logotype, so as to form a more unified
and easily recognized image.
For accuracy, photoengraving reproduction methods using reproduction
meterials is preferred.
