In this section, you’ll find important information on how to effectively use our logo and maintain our visual identity.

Please take the time to review the guidelines thoroughly. After doing so, you may proceed to download the assets you require.

Primary Palette

At least one color from the Clerc Center’s primary palette must be included in every composition. This is key for communicating the Clerc Center brand. The navy and buff are nods to the Clerc Center’s partner, Gallaudet University.

Colors must be used consistently in key applications, including, but not limited to: flyers, publications, advertising, multimedia, business forms, and signage.

Secondary Palette

The secondary colors provide complements to the Clerc Center’s primary palette and can be used as accents throughout its marketing. These colors are often used as backgrounds and textures on social media. They do not replace the primary palette and cannot be changed, lightened, or tinted.

The red is a nod to the Model Secondary School for the Deaf’s colorway. With its significant contrast, the orange is intended primarily for calls to action buttons and text where extra attention is needed.

The email signature must follow the approved Clerc Center branding template with no alterations. Logos, fonts, and colors are set for consistency. Personal logos or quotes should not be added within the design but may be used outside the template to maintain brand integrity.

Branding Kit

The Clerc Center Branding Kit provides logos, color schemes, fonts, and design guidelines to ensure a consistent and cohesive visual identity across all materials, enhancing recognition and communication. The full branding kit will be available in 2025, but the logo and signature are ready for immediate use.
