Digital style guide

The VCU identity represents us at the most basic and critical levels. It is a signature, a stamp of quality and a symbol of pride. Our visual style offers a clean, modern aesthetic that meets high standards of visual accessibility while promoting credibility, trust and warmth in the design.
