People


Dark imagery


When our dark photography is used with a gradient in a curve frame it should be paired with our bright gradients to ensure there’s enough contrast to see the edges of the curve frame.

Our dark photography is focused on people in vivid color and conveys a sense of cinematic illumination. The imagery can be infused with the vivid Micron colors, adding richness and bringing all of our brand’s visual elements together.

Abstract


Material abstract


The vivid colors of our silicon wafers inspired our entire brand palette. We use macro photography of our semiconductors to highlight and showcase the beauty and precision of our products.

Macro photography and video are great ways to highlight innovation and illustrate abstract technological concepts. When selecting imagery, use color to your advantage by choosing pieces that complement your design and storytelling needs. Always use images with a purpose — whether as a visual metaphor or simply to help emphasize a key point or takeaway.

Things to avoid


People imagery

Don’t overuse dark imagery.

Don’t use cliched subject matter.

Don’t use imagery decoratively. Showcase engaging pictures that speak to the copy.

Don’t use busy product imagery.

Don’t apply color to an image in an artificial way.

Don’t use busy photos where too many distractions take away from the main subject.

Don’t show subjects who are not engaged or in focus.

Don’t use copy over a busy image.


Liquiform and abstract imagery

Don’t use multiple liquiform images side by side.

Do use liquiform as a background for the most important messaging and our grays to divide secondary information.

Don’t let our material abstract imagery obstruct readability of the message and overwhelm the layout.

Do use our material abstract images to add energy and visual impact to the message.

Don’t let copy extend over the busy area of the liquiform image.

Do break copy so it stays in the dark area of the image where it is readable.

Don’t pair our bright and colorful material abstract imagery with our bright gradients.

Do pair our material abstract imagery with our black background to emphasize the image.
