Branding Tips
To maintain consistency with the program’s colours and the faculty’s brand, please use only the colours currently featured in the templates.
Using the brand fonts:
Our main fonts are Polaris Condensed and Replica. Polaris is used for headings, calls to action, and highlighting content such as quotes, stats, callouts, and important info, while Replica is used for body copy.
To use a font in Figma, you need to 1) Install the fonts on your computer and 2) Ensure you are working desktop version of Figma
Please avoid recreating these files using other software. We want to ensure that we don't create extra work for anyone, and having everything in Figma allows us to make any changes or suggestions more streamlined.
