INTRODUCTION This guideline offers graphic standards and resources for University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System marketing and communication projects—printed materials, websites, news and promotional text and more. These standards will establish and help maintain a strong brand identity for the Health System. A few things to remember. Consistency is critical to a strong identity. UI Health System is the new name for the system that includes the University of Illinois hospital and outpatient center, the clinical research and patient care activities of the Health Sciences Colleges, Mile Square and other community access points like University Village and The O’Hare Clinic as well as specialty clinics in Peoria and Quad Cities. Your consistent usage of UI Health according to these guidelines is an important part of overcoming confusion with other campus brands such UIC and individual department and program identities as well as external brands that may sound similar. By branding up to the UI Health name and graphics, each entity will enjoy brand reinforcement every time UI Health is seen or heard--whether it is used to refer to the entire organization or a single department or program. Consistency and synergy across entities is the way strong brand identities are built. The guidelines presented here ensure a basic level of coordination and consistency across Health System communications. At the same time, they provide departments and programs the latitude to develop projects that meet their specific needs.

BRAND GRAPHICS Background / Border

Color

All branding materials us a combination of border and background color as the base of the design. For color applications, a white border is used with a tan background. For grayscale applications, a grey border around a white background.

Greyscale

The size of the border is dependent on the size of the design, but it should be only about 1-2% the size of the longest side. For example, a 5.5" wide by 8.5" high ad would have a border that is .125" or approximately 1.5% of 8.5".

B-3


BRAND GRAPHICS

Image Grid / Headline

The image grid is comprised of 3 or more images that help to establish or support the message of the ad.

• The gap between images should remain consistent throughout the layout including between images and copy or other elements.

• The overall appearance of the image group should be organic yet anchored off an internal grid structure. It should be asymmetric yet still balanced.

• Images should bleed off the sides of vertical formatted layouts and off the top/bottom of horizontal formatted layouts.

• One of the images (usually the largest) should contain a suitable background that is simple and dark enough to reverse a headline out of.
