FloridaQuantum brand guidelines

The wordmark, colors, and type for partners, press, and anyone representing FloridaQuantum.

Wordmark

Black on light. White on dark.

The wordmark is custom lettering, so always use these files. Pick the version with the stronger contrast against whatever sits behind it.

Clear space and size

Give it room to read.

Clear space: an empty margin equal to the height of the capital F, marked X, on every side of the wordmark.

Misuse

Use it as supplied.

Each of these changes weakens the mark, even the ones that look like an improvement.

  • Don't stretch, squash, or skew it.

  • Don't recolor it. Black or white only.

  • Don't add shadows, outlines, or other effects.

  • Don't rotate it.

  • Don't place it where it lacks contrast.

  • Don't retype it. The wordmark is artwork, not a font.
