Fonts

Helvetica Neue has been chosen for its simplicity, readability and availability. It is also easy to use with different fonts when designing other communications with specific messages.

Big, bold and simple are the key elements to Greenpeace’s typography.

  • Titles and headlines should be big and bold.
  • Paragraphs should be left-aligned and rag-right (the default setting for most left-to-right written languages) and use Helvetica Neue Light or Regular.
  • We have a licence to use Helvetica Neue for Greenpeace campaigns. If you are making campaign content and would like a copy of Helvetica Neue please get in touch.
  • Inter is the open source alternative we can use in both print and digital applications and is a beautiful alternative to Helvetica Neue.
  • Greenpeace’s written voice is clear and plain-spoken, and our typography reinforces that. When you’re styling text, make it simple and straightforward — don’t overthink it.
