Typography
Consistent typography is a key element of the visual identity. Headings and titles are set in Cantarell. All the other text is set with Inter.
Header 1 | Cantarell Heavy, 24pt |
Header 2 | Cantarell Heavy, 22pt |
Header 3 | Cantarell Heavy, 18pt |
Header 4 | Cantarell Bold, 16pt |
Body Text | Inter, 12pt |
Color
Color is another important element of the visual identity, and is key to quick and easy brand recognition. Emphasis of the primary brand color is particularly important. Colors should be taken from the brand palette wherever possible.
To allow for reasonable contrast, it is suggested to darken the luminance of the colors for dark preference. One way is to use the HSL color mode and multiply the luminance value by 0.85
as it is done here.

Logo
The GNOME logo is the most important part of the brand identity. The general rule for the logo is to keep it in its original form, including the whitespace around it.
Other visual elements should not be placed close or connecting with the logo. As a rule, elements should be placed no closer than 20% of the width of the logo graphic.
