. . . and convenience. Our service is new to many people and it is vital that we build a brand that people trust.
We want our patients to understand who we are and how we can help them. To do that we’ve improved the way that we communicate.
It’s all about trust . . .
Brand Identity Design Guidelines 4Lloyds Online Doctor
Our brand – ContextWe live in a culture of consumer technology. Using the internet, we can manage our lives in an easier and more convenient way than ever before.
We shop, we socialise, we bank, we manage utilities and we access entertainment through online interfaces.
More and more people are comfortable connecting with brands and services online. As technologies and devices develop, this culture will grow.
Traditional face-to-face communication continues to merge with the world of online interaction. Healthcare will be a key part of this evolution.
Powered by leading healthcare professionals and bespoke technology, we can offer patients an experience that is more convenient than the traditional face-to-face alternative.
Our patients can decide when and where they get expert advice and order their treatments.

TypographyGood typography is vital to the way we connect with our patients.
It is important to adhereto some basic rules thatwill help to maintain a consistent use of our identity.
Throughout, we shouldalways speak with FSAlbert.
Ranged right
Our typography should always be ranged left. This ensures a
constant starting point to each line and makes reading more
efficient.
Too tight
We should always use a comfortable amount of line spacing (leading). If line spacing is too open or too tight, legibility is affected. As a rule leading should 3 points greater than the text size. So 20 point text would be set with 23 point leading.
Centred
Our typography should always be ranged left. This ensures a constant starting point to
each line and makes reading more efficient.
Too open
We should always use a comfortable
amount of line spacing (leading).
If line spacing is too open or too
tight, legibility is affected. As a rule
leading should 3 points greater than
the text size. So 20 point text would
be set with 23 point leading.
Justified
Our typography should always be ranged left. This ensures a constant starting point to each line and makes reading more efficient.

PictogramsOne very important aspectof our brand is our consultationand treatment process. It is a simple and discreet process that is central to our offer.
We have made it a key aspect of our visual identity by creating a distinctive set of pictograms to communicate the process.
The pictograms that represent our ordering process have been developed as an extension of the visual language in our logo.
They should be used in ourcommunications to supportmessaging and information.
1Complete our confidential medical questionnaire and pay for your consultation.
2Our registered doctors will post your prescription to you if medically appropriate.
3Take the prescription to your local pharmacy. That’s it!

Connecting lineOur logotype forms the cornerstoneof our visual language and isaccompanied by a connecting linethat helps to define and control our communications.
The line connects with the underline of our logotype and our pictograms to create a coherent visual device.
It can be flexible and configured in different ways to accommodate content and messaging. And it is permissible to create designswithout the connecting line.
The connecting line should haveradius corners that are visually consistent with the logo type underline.
Lloyds Online Doctor
Connecting lineBelow are examples of how the connecting line can be applied,with or without pictograms.
The connecting line can be usedto create areas for content.
The line can change direction horizontally but must always align to the margins vertically.

Dear Rick,
There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don’t look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn’t anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet.
It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.
With kind regards,Stephen
