Imagery

1. General

Clean, simple, aspirational, natural and people are the key themes for imagery and photographs used by Gydeline.  Where captions and text are used these need to be clear, simple black and white – simple asides and overlays.

Many of the illustrations used on the Gydeline website are from Freepik Storyset. We are very grateful to be able to use this fantastic resource.

2. Lines & Borders

Our preference is to not use lines and borders. When they are required they should be in simple, muted brand colours and appropriate to the context. A border radius is also required, 10px as standard but dependent on size of image.

3. Backgrounds

Backgrounds are not common with preference being for white. On the occasion that emphasis is needed for an element a light grey or teal background can be used.
