Logo System

MPH utilizes a streamlined logo system:

  • Primary Logo (Wordmark)
    Used across all external communications to clearly establish the school’s identity
  • Secondary Logo (Monogram)
    May be used in supporting contexts when the full school name is already present or clearly implied

This structure ensures both brand clarity and flexibility across platforms.


Logo Usage Guidelines

To maintain consistency:

  • Minimum size (print): 2” x 1”
  • Minimum size (digital): 90px wide
  • Always scale proportionally (no distortion)
  • Maintain a minimum clear space of 0.25” around all sides
  • Do not place any text, imagery, or graphic elements within the clear space

Color System

MPH’s core color palette includes:

  • Pebble Hill Red #a8302d / PMS 1805 C
  • Manlius Green #167a56 / PMS 3425 C
  • Syracuse Sand #908465 / PMS 7531 C
  • Warm Grey #414042/ PMS Cool Gray 11 C
  • Black #000000 / PMS Black C
  • White #ffffff

The primary logo should always appear in MPH Red when possible. Supporting materials should match this color standard or be as close as possible.
