Usage tips

Do:

  • Use different typefaces together to create emphasis and a visual hierarchy that assists the reader with navigating your text.
  • Use fonts, weights, color and point size to tell a story.
  • Use plenty of surrounding white space.
  • Keep punctuation to a minimum. Visit our writing style section for more tips.

Do not:

  • Use all capitals in blocks of type of three lines or more.
  • Condense or expand typefaces.
  • Add spacing between characters.
  • Overuse emphases. Too much emphasis can have the opposite effect. If everything is emphasised, nothing stands out.
  • Substitute any variation other than those listed above.

Note: Brighton Grammar’s is designed in all capitals. When written in text, the name should appear in uppercase and lowercase letters.
