The University of Texas at Austin brand guidelines
The University of Texas at Austin provides brand guidelines covering core marks, colors, typography, and downloadable campus templates.
Freedam's take — I spent time browsing through The University of Texas at Austin brand center, and I appreciate how practical the structure is. Everything anchors around core marks, from primary wordmarks down to supporting iconography like the Tower and Hook ’em hand. Instead of hiding practical tools away, the site provides direct links to swatches, class logos, and slide decks hosted in Box. The clear breakdown between serif and sans-serif typography, alongside dedicated template guidance for campus tools like Canva, makes it straightforward for university staff to produce consistent work.
