I appreciate how direct Aalborg University is with its core visual assets. Rather than hiding identity tools behind a login, the overview presents essential downloads right away, from InDesign swatch files to their distinct wave pattern graphics. The typography pairings are immediately clear, pointing straight to Barlow on Google Fonts alongside Arial for everyday use. On the logo page, they break down assets logically by context, offering dedicated packages for web, print, campus variations, and social media icons alongside clear sizing rules for standard paper formats.
