This is a branding standard that hearkens back to what we have used historically, while tying all colors to official Pantone Coated sRGB values and providing freely redistributable fonts for all typefaces.

The intended audience for this page is normal people and graphic artists who will be creating simple web pages, print ads, and other rendered art. If you are a CSS developer, you may find Moon Society 2019 Branding Font Stacks of interest. Do not use fonts from low in the stacks for "normal" branding work.

*General purpose serif and possibly logo/title: '''Palatino'''/'''Palladio''', with Tex Gyre Pagella as a FOSS and redistributable implementation.  It hearkens back to 1990s ASI and Artemis Project branding.
 
*Headings and Headlines: '''Spartan''', with Spartan MB as a FOSS redistributable implementation.  The League Spartan implementation has been used with MMM. This typeface hearkens back to Gizmo and should compliment it when we have a font.

*'''Palatino LT STD'''
 
−
*'''Palladio'''
 
−
*'''URW Palladio L'''
 
−
*'''Palatino Novo'''
 
−
*'''TeX Gyre Pagella'''
 
−
::A completely FOSS implementation that might be the basis for in-house custobmization.  Is often included with systems that include software that uses TeX as a dependency or just users and distros using the TeX Gyre fonts as a handy base.

−
*'''Book Antiqua'''

*'''FPL Neu'''
 
−
 
 
−

−
*'''Perpetua'''
 
−
:: This is another typeface that appears to have been used historically, including the ARTEMIS logo.  It's arguably close enough to Palatino/Palladio.
 
−
 
 
−
'''Better than Most Possibilities'''
 
−
*'''Libertine'''
 
−
*'''Linux Libertine'''
 
−
::Libertine/Linux Libertine is often bundled with Linux distros
 
−
*'''Tinos'''
 
−
::A variant of Libertine that is often found on Chromebooks
 
−
 
 
−
*'''Garamond'''
 
−
::A typeface with a lot of variants, some of which are closer to Palatino than others.  This is basically a Hail Mary pass before subjecting the visitor with whatever their serif default is.

=====Noto Sans Font Stack Notes=====
 
−
'''Typeface Implementation'''
 
−
*'''Noto Sans'''
 
−
::The brand reference font family.  While Droid Sans appears to be the same typeface, most Android devices will automatically substitute either Roboto 2012 or Roboto 2014, which are not desired at all.
 
−
 
 
−
'''Similar Typefaces'''
 
−
*'''Verdana'''
 
−
*'''Carlito'''
 
−
::This appears to actually be a variant of Noto Sans, but it crops the capital India, making it indistinguishable from lowercase Lima.  Not only does it lose an important a11y feature, it loses one of the more distinguishing features of Noto Sans and Verdana.  Carlito is mainly found on Chromebooks.
 
−
 
 
−
'''Better than Most Possibilities'''<BR />
 
−
At this level, a proper capital India is a lost cause, but the terminals of these are in the ballpark or at least less far off than we'll get with most users' default sans-serif typefaces.

'''Typeface Implementations'''
 
−
*'''Webfont-Spartan'''
 
−
::This is the @font-face name and could be named differently in an actual stylesheet.
 
−
*'''Spartan'''
 
−
*'''Spartan MB'''
 
−
::This is a FOSS implementation with seven different weights.
 
−
*'''League Spartan'''
 
−
::Only one weight is FOSS.  Fortunately, it's probably the weight we're wanting.  The other weights in this family are proprietary and very low probability.
 
−
 
 
−
'''Substantially Similar Geometrics'''
 
−
*'''Century Gothic'''
 
−
*'''CenturyGothic'''
 
−
:: Best hope for most MS Windows users
 
−
*'''Avenir'''
 
−
*'''AvenirNext'''
 
−
*'''Avenir Next'''
 
−
:: Best hope on Apple products
 
−

'''Futura/Twentieth Century'''<BR />

*'''Tex Gyre Adventor'''

'''Other Geometric Typefaces'''<BR />
 
−
There is no fallback to a default geometric typeface, so it's extra-important to try find any available match that is one.
 
−
*'''GT Walsheim'''
 
−
*'''Walsheim'''
 
−
*'''Harmonia Sans'''
 
−
*'''HarmoniaSans'''
 
−
*'''Circular'''
 
−
::lowercase Alpha is two-story
 
−
*'''Insignia'''
 
−
::Charlies look great, but capital Foxtrot is a problem
 
−
 
 
−
'''Desperate Approximations'''<BR />
 
−
Better than Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, DejaVu Sans, et c.  This part of the list needs expansion.  ''This'' is the last ditch.  The sans-serif fallback is accepting that the city is going to be ravaged.  Q: should we try fantasy instead and risk an even worse choice than sans serif?
 
−
*'''Plate Gothic'''
 
−
:: Almost looks like a geometric and the Charlies look about right; small caps instead of lowercase.

'''Removed'''

This is a branding standard that hearkens back to what we have used historically, while tying all colors to official Pantone Coated sRGB values and providing freely redistributable fonts for all typefaces.

The intended audience for this page is normal people and graphic artists who will be creating simple web pages, print ads, and other rendered art. If you are a CSS developer, you may find Moon Society 2019 Branding Font Stacks of interest. Do not use fonts from low in the stacks for "normal" branding work.

Typefaces

  • General purpose serif and possibly logo/title: Palatino/Palladio, with Tex Gyre Pagella as a FOSS and redistributable implementation. It hearkens back to 1990s ASI and Artemis Project branding.
  • Headings and Headlines: Spartan, with Spartan MB as a FOSS redistributable implementation. The League Spartan implementation has been used with MMM. This typeface hearkens back to Gizmo and should compliment it when we have a font.
  • MMM Headlines and decorative headlines: Gizmo. Will probably be only one font (Lunar Gizmo?), whose development is a pending action item. The proprietary original font appears to be impossible to legitimately acquire, unfortunately.
  • Body text and general purpose sans serif: Noto Sans, which hearkens to Verdana, which was used both on websites and in MMM.
  • Monospace: Inconsolata, which has two FOSS fonts and was used on our 2013-2018 website design (Coriolis).

Logos

TODO

  • Determine primary and secondary, and other specified colors from palette
  • Wordpress theme for MMM
  • Font repository (publicly accessible?)
  • Revise branding for wikis and other websites
  • Branding sheet
