05 – Brand Elements
Signature Elements
These recurring elements create visual consistency across the template. They should be used as designed – do not modify their colours, sizes or positions.
Copper Accent Bar
A narrow vertical copper bar sits to the left of every content slide title. It anchors the header and creates consistency across all layouts.
Copper Chevrons
Used as bullet point markers in the Chevron Bullet Points layout (Slide 6). The copper arrow images should not be replaced or recoloured.
Copper Accent Lines
Horizontal copper lines are used as section dividers and column headers throughout multi-column layouts.
Volta Logo
The VOLTA wordmark in blue sits in the bottom-right corner of every slide. Do not resize, recolour or reposition it. It is built into the slide master.
06 – Guidelines
Do's & Don'ts
Follow these rules to keep presentations on-brand and professional.
Do
Use only the Volta colour palette – copper, blue and grey families
Keep the Volta logo in its fixed bottom-right position
Use Arial for all text throughout
Maintain the title/subtitle hierarchy on every content slide
Use the copper accent bar consistently across all white-background pages
Use data centre imagery for Title, End Page and Thank You slides
Keep body text concise – these are presentation slides, not documents
Use the copper chevron icons as bullet points where available
Don't
Add colours outside the brand palette (no reds, greens or purples)
Move, resize or recolour the Volta logo
Use fonts other than Arial
Place dark text on the blue/dark background slides – always use white
Remove or recolour the copper accent bar from content slides
Use clip art, stock icons or emoji in place of the brand icon set
Add borders, shadows or 3D effects to shapes
Overcrowd slides – use multiple slides rather than squeezing content
