Graphic Standards
To ensure we communicate one clear and unifying visual identity to our diverse audiences,
Marketing and Communications suggests the use of our visual assets (logo, fonts and
color palette) for official college communications.
This system includes the resources below, which reinforce a strong and definitive
impression of CCRI's quality, professionalism and commitment to academic excellence.
Please refer to our CCRI style guide for use of logo, fonts and color palette.
Consistency in the way these elements are presented will strengthen all facets of
this institution by projecting one visual look to the public.
Publications by CCRI represent its most significant outreach and therefore are an
important component of the visual communications system. Publications include any
or all brochures, catalogs, flyers, posters, postcards, websites or other materials
representing the college or program within the college.
All college publications must use the official type fonts (Gill Sans MT and Times
Roman). They are kept purposely broad to encourage individual creative solutions.
At the same time, they provide in-house designers with a common template intended
to ensure consistency and standardization of materials representing the college.
Each publication produced for CCRI should display the official CCRI logo and/or CCRI
Signature.
To be successful in communicating our identity, it is essential that each project
adheres to the standards outlined. By doing so, you will help us project a clear,
unifying image for CCRI.
If you have questions about the proper use of the CCRI logo or signatures, please
contact the Department of Marketing and Communications.
Official CCRI Logo, Signature and Seal
The Community College of Rhode Island logo is the primary identifying element of the
graphic identity system. The logo or one of CCRI signatures must be used on all stationery,
publications, signage, websites and other communications, print or electronic, produced
by any college program or department.

Incorrect uses of the logo, signature and seal

the logo, signature or seal undermine a consistent presentation of material from the
College.
Distortion: The logo, logotype and seal should not be distorted by stretching, slanting,
twisting, curving, etc.
Improper color: The CCRI logo, logotype and seal should be presented only in the approved
colors.
Enclosure or framing: The logo, signature and seal should not be framed or contained
by other visual elements.
