What does Lothian Buses' branding look like?
The Lothian identity centres on a bold, all-capital LOTHIAN wordmark paired with a circular crest-like emblem, often set against the operator’s deep red; its bus liveries and service identities extend that strong red-and-white recognition. Typography is clean and utilitarian, with clear sans-serif lettering, a palette anchored by dark red, navy and white, and direct transport imagery that favours buses, staff and passengers in familiar local settings; layouts use straightforward blocks and high-contrast information hierarchy.
What are Lothian Buses' brand colors?
The Lothian Buses color palette uses the hex codes #AE9962, #102B4D and #E8CD85.
