Overview

What is corporate design?

It is the manner in which an organisation presents itself visually to the public.

What is its main purpose?

  1. To facilitate identification of the organisation
  2. To differentiate it from other institutes
  3. To define a coherent design system across all channels

There are four core elements to the EMBL design as it is expressed visually:

  1. EMBL logo
  2. Typeface
  3. Colours
  4. Graphical elements

In addition we offer guidelines on:

  • Basic design principles to help you apply the core elements in an informed and effective way
  • Web guidelines for the development of micro-sites and group pages
