University of Nottingham brand guidelines
The University of Nottingham brand guidelines offer comprehensive visual, editorial, and partnership guidance with assets hosted via SharePoint.
Freedam's take — I like how pragmatic the University of Nottingham brand guidelines feel. The visual identity section covers everything from the traditional coat of arms to specific rules for video, charts, and illustrations. What caught my eye is the level of detail given to partnerships, outlining how to balance marks when the university is the lead partner versus sharing equal billing. Providing clear advice on accessibility contrasts alongside direct links out to asset libraries on SharePoint makes this a very functional everyday reference for their team.
