Visual identity

[edit]

Logos

[edit]
Former logo of Trans TV, used from around 2002 until 15 December 2013.

From its founding until the logo change in 2013 (in which using the "Diamond A" logo that introduced in mid-2011), the Trans TV logo was originally a stylized rhombus (intended to be a diamond), with the inscription "TRANS" in the middle (in Optima typeface) and the letters T and V respectively in the top and bottom forming an isosceles right triangle.

The logo (above) became gray instead when used on-air, and it was the first Indonesian TV channel to use gray logos during commercial breaks. Until 2002, Trans TV placed its logo on the bottom-right corner and it was in color,[2] since then, their logos have been always placed on the top-right.

On 15 December 2013, in conjunction with the 12th anniversary of Trans Media, the logos of Trans TV (and Trans7) went into total overhaul. No longer featuring a symbol, this logo only consists of the inscription "TRɅNSTV" (in Gotham typeface) with stylized A, of which that letter is (also) interpreted as a diamond (the "A diamond" has been introduced since mid 2011).
