Twitch Brand Guidelines

Identity Guidelines (Speedrun Edition) V 2.0, 01.07.21 Twitch Identity Guidelines 1

Here’s the thing: Not everyone’s going to get it. Staring at a screen was fine for a while, but canned content had its day. We’re building something better, and we’re not alone. From everyone in chat, to the streamers making sure the show goes on. We’re a collective cast of millions going all-in to make moments together, directing the action as we watch it. We don’t always know what’s next, and we like it that way. Because multiplayer is everything—our how and our why. It’s powered by all of us. And for some reason, by Bob Ross too. This started as a place to stream. Together, we’re making it Twitch. Twitch Identity Guidelines 2

Logos Wordmark → Clearspace → Our most recognizable element, the new Twitch wordmark contains the DNA of our previous iteration to give a sense of nostalgia and evoke our roots in gaming. Wordmark: This is our representational mark. Primarily used internally on our owned channels, and in partnerships when locked up with other logos. Extruded Wordmark: Our primary logo, the extruded, dimensional logo is the core expression of Twitch and is used primarily in outbound comms when we want to be the most expressive. And let's not forget: Extruded Clearspace → Wordmark → Glitch: The quickest way of saying ‘Twitch’ without spelling it out, Glitch represents everything about us and our community through an ownable mascot. You can find a more detailed explanation on when and where to use each version of the logo to the right. Glitch → Clearspace → x x 1/2 x x x Twitch Identity Guidelines 5

Logo Lockups Internal lockup → Sometimes our logo likes to team up with other logos or copy. With the proper spacing, it’ll play nice with almost anything. Here are some guidelines for those instances. Cap Height X-Height Partnership lockup → Cap Height Center Twitch Identity Guidelines 6
