01 · Logo
The wordmark and grid mark
Primary logo with clear space, plus the on-light and on-dark lockups. Design: Blake.
Clear space is the height of one grid cell on all sides. Do not place the logo on busy imagery or recolor the wordmark.
02 · Color
Palette
The full brand palette. Blue leads; sky, wheat, and crimson are accents that stay secondary to the partner logos beside them.
03 · Typography
Type faces & scale
Halyard Display for headings, Freight (serif) for body. Source Sans Pro is the free, open-source fallback if a web license isn't carried for Halyard.
Where research meets real-world learning
Practical tools for educators and families
Behavior interventions often begin with strong momentum. Schools dedicate time to professional development and early progress is encouraging.
Headings: Halyard Display (Adobe Fonts). Body: Freight / FreightText Pro (Adobe Fonts). Shown live with web fallbacks where the kit isn't loaded.
04 · Buttons
Button styles
Pill buttons with a colored dot. Solid for primary actions, outline for secondary, white on blue backgrounds.
Uppercase is applied with CSS (text-transform), so the underlying text stays normal-case and readable for screen readers.
05 · Tags & labels
Chips
Compact, rounded chips. Topic tags use wheat, audience uses blue, soft pale-blue is for status like Free. A card carries one topic chip plus, optionally, an audience chip.
Wheat = Topic · Blue = Audience · Pale = status/cost.
06 · Resource cards
With and without photos
Most resources have no featured image, so the default cards build their visual from topic color + a resource-type icon. A real photo drops into the same slot when one exists. The partner shows as its logo (a small square) when it has one, or as text when it doesn't (for example, IGDIs). Three treatments below.
