Guidelines
Rett Syndrome Europe: brand guidelines
Rett Syndrome Europe (RSE) is the master brand. Other RSE brands, such as Rett Forum, extend it.
Colour
| Role | Token | Hex | Contrast on white |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary: dark blue (logo hands, wordmark) | --color-rse-blue |
#3042A0 |
8,7:1 |
| Accent: yellow (logo stars, "rse") | --color-rse-yellow |
#F9C815 |
1,6:1 |
| Secondary: light blue | --color-rse-light-blue |
#71B6F2 |
2,2:1 |
- Use dark blue for text, links, buttons and dark backgrounds.
- Yellow and light blue are for highlights, shapes and backgrounds only. Never use them for text on white. Yellow text on dark blue works (5,5:1).
- In UI code, use the semantic tokens (
--color-brand-primary,--color-text-default,--color-surface-*) rather than the palette, so the code works across brands.
Typography
- Segoe UI for everything, at 11 pt and justified in documents (from the original brand notes).
- Segoe UI is a Microsoft system font. It is not redistributable, so it is not shipped here. On the web, the token stack falls back to the platform's system UI font.
- TODO: confirm whether the RSE wordmark uses a different typeface, and whether a web font should replace Segoe UI for non-Windows readers.
Logo
| File | Use |
|---|---|
rse-horizontal-color |
Default. Symbol on the left, "rse" and tagline on the right. |
rse-horizontal-symbol-right-color |
Alternative lockup with the symbol on the right. |
rse-symbol-color |
Symbol only (hands and stars): avatars, favicons, small spaces. |
- Keep clear space around the logo of at least the height of one star.
- Do not recolour, stretch, rotate, add effects or place it on busy photography.
- TODO: export mono-dark and mono-light versions of each layout from Illustrator (
brands/rse/source/). Until then, use the colour logo on white or light backgrounds only.
Templates
