Montverde Academy

LOGOS

The Montverde Academy circle logo is the most powerful visual representation of our institution. It embodies

our core values and unites the diverse voices within our community, making us stronger together than we

are individually. More than just a symbol, it is the face of Montverde Academy, and it should be consistently

represented across all platforms.

OFFICIAL COLOR INFORMATION

The color specifications for Montverde Academy’s brand identity are provided here. To ensure accurate color reproduction, always refer to the Pantone ®

Matching System number, as computer monitors and screens may display colors inconsistently due to varying calibration.

Black, gray, dark purple, and light gold are not primary colors for Montverde Academy and should only be used in specific one-color applications or as uniform

colors. Any use of black, light gold, or dark purple—whether in imprinting, embroidery, or as uniform colors—must be approved by the Marketing and

Communications Department before proceeding with an order.

CL001

MONTVERDE ACADEMY PRIMARY CIRCLE LOGO

The Circle Logo is our primary identity mark, designed to represent

Montverde Academy (MVA) to a wide audience. Its impact is most

powerful when used independently, without the presence of other

visual elements. It must not be altered or combined with other

logos. Whenever possible, the primary Circle Logo (CL001) should

be used in all print and media applications.

Montverde Academy

LOGOS

THE MARKETING LOCKUP (page 6) offers

a consistent and easily recognizable mark

for Montverde Academy, to be used across

all marketing materials, both digital and

print, featuring the secondary wordmark.

For design flexibility, the lockup is available

in both horizontal and vertical orientations,

with either purple or gold text, depending on

the background image or color. The most

important consideration is ensuring the

lockup remains distinguishable and legible.

MONTVERDE ACADEMY SECONDARY CIRCLE LOGO

The secondary circle logo should be used when the primary

logo does not work effectively with the background. Versions are

available in PMS 255c (MVA Purple) and PMS 122c (MVA Gold).

All MVA logos—whether institutional, campus, sports, or lockups—

must be used exactly as provided. They should never be edited,

recreated, or used in part.

Garamond Pro

MONTVERDE ACADEMY PRIMARY WORDMARKS

When using the Montverde Academy wordmark in either Garamond Pro or Nimbus,

always use an approved logo file (see left). Do not recreate the wordmark or logo.

The mark may be resized, but always maintain the correct proportions by locking the

aspect ratio, ensuring both height and width are scaled together.

PWM002

Nimbus

The Garamond Pro wordmark has a traditional look and should be used in more

formal and academic marketing materials. The Nimbus wordmark is modern,

professional, and more informal, making it suitable for casual or contemporary

contexts.

SECONDARY WORDMARK

The MVA acronym wordmark is represented by the letter MVA presented as a unit. This wordmark may be used

as a lockup for uniforms, apparel and promotional materials. DO NOT RECREATE THE WORDMARK. The mark

may be resized, but always constrain proportions by locking the aspect ratio, so the height and width are scaled

together. It can be used in conjunction with the Nimbus Montverde Academy wordmark, and is one of the view

instances that Montverde Academy may be stacked.

APPROVED SECONDARY WORDMARK LOCKUPS

The uniform lockup is one of the few instances

where the Montverde Academy wordmark may

be stacked. Any other use of this wordmark

in a stacked format must be approved by the

Marketing and Communications Department.

Photography on Brand

Montverde Academy

LOGOS

Montverde Academy’s 130-acre campus offers a visually rich backdrop that reflects our diverse, dynamic

community and holistic student experience. Our photography is a critical tool in expressing our brand—

capturing not only the scenic beauty of our environment but also the vibrant academic, artistic, and athletic

life that defines us.

We aim for photography that feels natural yet intentional, using a blend of expansive aerial imagery, candid

student life moments, and thoughtfully planned marketing shoots. Each image should authentically reflect

what it’s like to live and learn at Montverde Academy.

With a comprehensive photo library and an in-house Getty professional photographer and videographer, we

have the resources to uphold high standards. Let’s be mindful not to default to what’s convenient—investing

a few extra minutes to find or capture the right image ensures every visual supports a cohesive, powerful

message about who we are.

• Use of images not owned by MVA must be approved by the Marketing and Communications

Department.

• MVA Employees should submit marketing, communications, photography, and videography

requests via the portal located under mymva at montverde.org.

• Download images from our library for the highest quality. Do not drag from the site or Internet.

• Vendors please contact our department for requests (see page 2).
