Design Elements<br />
Design elements can include shapes, lines and illustrations. <strong>The</strong>se<br />
elements provide a consistent way to organize communications<br />
materials. <strong>The</strong>y contribute to the overall feel of a piece, whether<br />
it is professional or casual, formal or family-friendly. Curves and<br />
soft lines used throughout our materials keep our layouts playful,<br />
with an element of spontaneity and softness.<br />
Note about clip art: Clip art detracts from the professional image<br />
the medical center wants to portray. <strong>The</strong>refore, when<br />
creating communications materials for <strong>Cincinnati</strong> Children’s,<br />
clip art should not be used as a design element. Photos are<br />
a more powerful element and can be downloaded from<br />

Grids<br />
<strong>The</strong> use of colorful grids in our communications materials<br />
combines our color palette with our photography to bring<br />
emphasis to the most important element in our photos: the<br />
patients we care for. Colors used in the grid complement the<br />
photography while providing space for captions, pull-quotes<br />
and sidebars.<br />
