Color, Typography, Photography

Brand Colors

Color is an important part of MIT Sloan’s brand identity. Our colors show strength, evoke emotion, and help to build the brand when consistently applied. The MIT Sloan color palette consists of primary and secondary color sets as well as highlight or accent colors. Our recommended approach is to use only one highlight color per application.

Photography

Imagery is essential to communicating the spirit, personality, and character of MIT Sloan. Using photos of people rather than buildings shows that our work is about ideas and the people who make them matter. We recommend using original photography and illustration in materials. Are you looking for new photography? The MIT Sloan Office of Communications maintains a Photo Library for use by the MIT community, and includes a mix of community and editorial artwork.
