Look‐and‐Feel – 9‐1‐1 Design Concept
Thelook‐and‐feelthatwillguidethedesignofallGNWT9‐1‐1productsisderivedfromthelook‐and‐feel that has been used so far, and would have been seen on variouspresentations. A set of symbols has been developed to enhance the look‐and‐feel. Allmaterials are GNWT Visual Identity Program (VIP) compliant. The look‐and‐feel is toprovide design guidelines for producing designed documents and can be adapteddependingontheproductbeingcreated.
An infographichasbeendeveloped thatoutlines “Whathappenswhen I call9‐1‐1 in theNWT?”.This infographicwill be reiterated acrossweb (html) andother communicationspiecessomayappearindifferentformats.Toseeanexampleoftheinfographicinoneofthecommunicationspieces,seetheMailersection.
