Puget Sound’s reputation and visibility are strengthened when we communicate about the college in a clear and consistent way. Our visual identity system ensures that all of our communications help advance Puget Sound’s story and look professional (and like they are coming from the same college!). The key elements are a logo, typography, and color. See Our Story: The Puget Sound Brand Guide or contact Creative Services for more details.
The primary graphic representation of Puget Sound includes our full name, founding date, and the mountain, to provide consistency with our historic seal and reflect the pioneering spirit and enduring values of Puget Sound.
Please always size the logo proportionately by holding “shift” when you drag the corner of the logo, or click “keep aspect ratio.”
To download a logo, please contact the Office of Communications at communications@pugetsound.edu.

In order to advance the visibility and reputation of Puget Sound, it is important that all departments and programs use the college logo. The logo can be used in conjunction with a department name in a “lockup.” Logo lockups should be requested from Creative Services.
This is the most common lockup used for most Puget Sound departments.
There may be instances when one- or two-word department names can appear below the logo, set in all caps in Adobe Garamond Pro Semibold in a size that matches the width of the logo.
For use only when it is not possible to use the primary version. Type should be set in Adobe Garamond Pro except for logos requiring embroidery, in which case Univers 55 (shown) may be used.
