Typography
Consistent use of typography across different media helps to reinforce our visual personality.
The University logo typeface is Frutiger. This typeface is used in the University Logo only.
Three typefaces have been chosen to represent Lancaster’s visual personality. These typefaces are for use by professional designers; if you are working with a design agency to produce any materials then please contact the Marketing Services team for full details.
These professional fonts are not avaliable on all computers and so a number of Microsoft equivalents to these typefaces can be used internally.
- Typefaces for use internally within the University
- Typefaces for use within digital media
