ICONOGRAPHY
We have a set of icons which are always used to highlight additional or special information within an item of publicity
OUR PRIMARY ICONS
Providing further information links is a key component to offering users, residents or visitors a choice of communications channels to get in touch, or find out more information. We’ve got them in a range of colour sets to match our brand palettes.
Here’s how they are used…
Information
When marking a source of information, eg The process and steps of submitting a survey.
The Cursor
To highlight web addresses
Exclamation
To highlight specific or important pieces of information, eg a key fact in a report.
Speech Bubble
To communicate a point of view, opinion or announcement, eg a direct quote.
Addition
Use this icon to identify information in addition to the content provided, eg partner websites.
JUST REMEMBER
Icons and the selected colours need to match
Whichever set of colours you choose for the supergraphic should also be used for any icons as long as the thicker line is the darkest of these and the thinnest line is the lightest.
Consultation Icons
We use two specific icons when publishing material for a public consultation. These must only appear in the formats shown.
Sizing
Whichever version of the corporate logo you are using, the “Have Your Say” or the “Your Views” icons should be twice this height, as shown on the right.
Position
“Have Your Say” icon or “Your Views” icon on the left.
Corporate logo should always be bottom right
It should then be aligned centrally vertically with the corporate logo.
