Typography

Typography is like body language: a simple sign has a lot of hidden meaning. Typography is an identity by itself, and it should be treated delicately.

Primary font

FiraGO

FiraGO is the primary and only typography used for Sýslumenn's brand. It is a not too formal typography and accessible to everyone under the SIL Open Font License.

How to compose typography

Usually applications will have a header with the Goverment's logo. Use that area as reference to compose the text in the space, as exemplified here.

Always use "Medium" weight of the font for headers and text highlights.

Use the "Regular" weight for everything else.

When there is only one block of text, center it in the area available. If not, follow the composition rules explained above.

Covers follow special rules, always following the position of the logomark (Coat of Arms).

Always use "Medium" weight for titles.

Other examples on when to use "Medium" weight: text highlights (list in this example). But if the list is longer than 5 items, we recommend using "Regular" weight.

For the main brand use always primary blue color for text. For subcategories, use always the darkest tone.
