Brand Guide
Over the past years, we have developed a strong Thought For Food™ (TFF) Brand which for us is a visualization of the global movement we’ve built and of our two most important values openness and collaboration.
As our movement spreads around the world we want to make sure that we keep the brand that we love and that it is used according to the brand guidelines. On this page, we will guide you through everything you need to know about the TFF Brand and easy steps for you to promote TFF in your regional and local community.
When using our brand, please respect our brand guidelines and any legal restrictions mentioned on this page. The TFF Brand is only to be used by the TFF Community and to support TFF’s positive mission to engage, empower and support the next generation to help create a more inclusive and sustainable global food system. The TFF Brand is officially trademarked and any misuse will be legally fined. Thank you for respecting our brand!

The Logomark
Explaining the Symbol
Thought For Food™ is the world’s leading movement to empower, educate and support the next generation to help solve food and agriculture’s biggest challenges.
Our programs have created a one-of-a-kind community of entrepreneurs, scientists, students, designers and more who are passionate about transforming the food and agriculture industry. We consider the TFF Community the core, heart and soul of what we do, which is why we have dedicated the logo to the TFF Community.
The TFF primary logo is a combination of the symbol explained above and a simple TFF word mark.
Color Variations
The TFF primary logo exists in a variety of colors, here’s how and when to use them.
The multicolor logo (pictured on the left) should always be your first choice. Make sure to only use it with a white background.
If you have to go for another background color, use one of the monochrome logos:
- The violet logo should be used on light colored backgrounds.
- The white logo should be used on dark colored backgrounds.
How to use it
If you want to use the TFF Brand where it has not been established yet, the secondary logo is the one to go for. The secondary logo has the full ‘Thought For Food’ name in it – everyone who sees it gets and remembers our organization’s full name.
- The violet logo should be used on light colored backgrounds.
- The white logo should be used on dark colored backgrounds.

The Typefaces
Museo Sans Rounded
We use two different fonts for our TFF Brand. Why? Because this creates the nuances which make our brand so unique and rich in detail.
Museo Sans Rounded is the font we use on all logos, supertitles and titles. We use the weights 900 (bold) and 500 (regular).
Nunito
For body text, Nunito is our default font. Other than Museo, this is an open source font which you can simply download from Google Fonts.
How to Use the Fonts
As explained above, we always use Museo Sans Rounded for supertitles (ST) and titles (T), and Nunito for all paragraphs (P). Have a look at the example below.
- ST (SuperTitle) – Museo Sans Rounded 900
- T (Title) – Museo Sans Rounded 900
- P (Paragraph) – Nunito Regular
