About UNESCO
A monochrome blue emblem depicting a simplified classical temple: a triangular pediment sits atop thin horizontal lines that act as an entablature. The wordmark "UNESCO" is rendered vertically in tall, condensed sans-serif letters that visually double as stylized columns, sitting above a stepped base of three horizontal lines.
The design is flat and linear with consistent stroke weight, using negative space between the letters to emphasize columnar separation. The overall look is formal and institutional, evoking architecture and cultural heritage.
What's in it: classical temple (pediment and columns) stylized columns (formed by letters)
Shapes: pediment (triangular roof) vertical column-like wordmark horizontal base lines thin horizontal entablature lines
