Icons

The icons in the University of Houston’s brand are single-colored. They are flat shapes used as support in larger illustrations or secondary visuals when used in conjunction with graphic elements. The idea behind the icons is to keep them simplistic and direct in order to make bold visual statements that support the copy. Icons could be used when a photo isn’t available; they are not purely decorative. Icons are not logos and should not be used to identify a department or college.

Graphic elements

The dimensional boxes show constant forward motion reflecting the aspirational aspect of the brand. Within the brand, directional arrows are used to show the progressive mentality. The constant borders in the design help to ground the content within, relating back to the practical UH, mindset in which enterprising ideas are rooted in the real world.
