About ScienceBank

ScienceBank is a researcher-governed open-science publishing platform. Research communities run their own peer review and publish open access, reviewers are compensated for their work, and the Society behind the platform is governed by the researchers it serves.

Brand kit

The official ScienceBank marks as scalable SVG files. Use them as supplied — the variants below cover light, dark, and monochrome contexts.

Usage guidance

  • The ScienceBank orange is exactly #FA4616 — use the supplied files rather than recolouring.
  • Pick the variant for your context: the primary wordmark on light backgrounds, the white-text wordmark on dark, monochrome only for single-colour print.
  • Leave clear space around the marks: the brandmark height on all sides of the wordmark, about a quarter of the mark edge around the standalone brandmark.
  • Do not render the wordmark below 24px tall or the brandmark below 16px square — they stop being legible.
  • Never stretch, rotate, recolour, outline, or add effects to the marks, and keep them off busy backgrounds.
