A helpful colleague in the department, not a sales rep. Warm, plain-spoken, and on the instructor's side. Specifics do the persuading.
The reader is an instructor. "Your course, your way." We are "we" — never "FlatWorld believes that…"

The direction below is what the brand already does. What is missing is the actual approved library — drop real photography in and these slots become the reference.
Where the approved library lives and who can pull from it · whether stock is permitted and from which source · crop ratios for web, slides and social · the rule for putting text over a photo · model release and attribution requirements.
Light outline icons, 2px stroke, rounded caps, drawn on a 24px box. The set on this site is Lucide, standing in until FlatWorld's production icon files are supplied.
2px, rounded caps and joins. Never filled, never two weights in one layout.
Navy for neutral, blue for interactive. Accent colours only inside a tinted container.
Emoji as icons. Not part of the brand voice anywhere.
The production icon files, and the six flat two-tone illustration icons used for the key-belief pillars on flatworld.com. Once those land, this section switches from a substitute set to the real one.
