External

The HOMELINK brand tagline is a reference to both our mission and our commitment to providing the best in integrated patient care. Period. It may be set in different ways as appropriate based on the objective of the overall communication. It may be set in Utile Black (either all one color or a combination of colors or weights to accent the word “good”) as a signoff at the bottom of a document or as a design element (set in an ALL CAPS combination of Utile Light and Utile Black here) to complement a larger, more branded communication.

Humanize. Simplify. Raise the bar.

Internal

This tagline serves as both a mission and a rallying cry for our internal team. It captures the essence of the service we strive to provide to our patients, clients, and partners every day.

Humanize: We lead with empathy, treating every interaction with care, respect, and a deep understanding of the human experience behind every case.

Simplify: We remove complexity and confusion, delivering clear, streamlined solutions that make life easier for those we serve. Raise the bar: We set new standards of excellence, continuously pushing ourselves to deliver better outcomes, better experiences, and better results.

It’s more than a tagline — it’s a daily commitment to how we show up, support one another, and improve the lives of those we serve.

Taglines

Our brand uses two distinct taglines to ensure we connect meaningfully with both internal and external audiences. Each tagline plays a critical role in reinforcing our brand promise — externally to the market and internally to our people.

Our core values define how we work, how we lead, and how we hold ourselves accountable.

Core Values

Improving the lives of everyone we serve.

Mission Statement

Persistently and unwaveringly committed to seeing things through.

Willing

Being ready and enthusiastic to take on challenges and meet needs.

Who We Are and How We Show Up

Integrity

Operating with honesty, transparency, and accountability in every action.

Balance

Thriving in all roles, both at work and in personal life.

LOGO & IDENTITY

The HOMELINK Logo

The logo may be used in two different configurations, with the icon and word mark arranged horizontally or vertically. When possible, use the horizontal configuration. Use the vertical configuration sparingly, when the layout lends itself to a centered orientation or horizontal space is limited.

The HOMELINK wordmark now includes a service mark (SM), which will transition to a registered trademark symbol (®) once registration is complete.

Logo Clear Space

Clear space is the area surrounding the logo that must be kept free of other graphic elements. For the horizontal and vertical logo orientations, maintain a clear space that is equal to the width of the icon. Minimum width of the logos should be 1”.

Light & Dark Versions

The primary usage of the logo should be the full-color version. On dark-themed background fills, use the white/green version when possible.

Single-Color Options

In situations where a background does not allow the full-color mark to have adequate contrast, the one-color version of the logo may be used. For example, a one-color logo may be appropriate when placed over a solid fill color (as above), a gradient, photograph or texture, or other special circumstances.

Always choose a logo that makes the word mark have adequate contrast and legibility. If the logo is placed on a photo, make sure that it is an uncluttered image so that the mark is legible. Place the logo in a space of the photo that won’t be in competition with the content, color, or composition of the image.

Watermark Logo Option

Transparency: Use a 10%-30% transparency so the watermark supports the content instead of competing with it.

Placement: Place in a consistent location (commonly bottom-right or centered). Do not obscure key text or imagery.

Size: Scale proportionally to the canvas — clearly visible but unobtrusive.

Color: Use approved single-color logos only (white, black, blue, or teal). Ensure sufficient contrast without drawing attention.

Consistency: Apply the same watermark treatment across all pages or screens within a single asset (e.g., slide decks, videos).

Do not stretch the logo horizontally or vertically.

Do not use the word mark or icon by itself.

Do not rotate the word mark or icon.

Do not alter the color of the logo outside of the approved color versions.

Logo Misuse

Do not add effects to the logo.

This is a quick guide to common mistakes to avoid when using the logo. Avoiding these misuses ensures brand integrity and consistency in creative execution.

Do not manipulate the logo to be a stroke.

Do not place the logo on color fills that don’t have sufficient contrast (Example 1)

Do not place the full-color logo over a clashing photo or texture.

Logo Color Misuse

Do not place the logo on color fills that don’t have sufficient contrast (Example 2)

Do not place the one-color logo in white over a light photo or texture.

This is a quick guide to common mistakes to avoid when using the full-color logo on background fills, or the one color version of the logo.

Always choose the version of the logo and its color combination that enables the mark to have contrast and legibility from the background it is placed on.

Do not use the one-color logo when the full-color version is possible.

Do not place the one-color logo in black over a dark photo or texture.

HOMELIN K PREMIUM CARE

HOMELIN

K PREMIUM CARE

HOMELINK Premium Care

HOMELINK Premium Care is the approach we take that differentiates us from our competitors. When referenced in literature, it may be complemented by this icon, which incorporates the brand pattern in a small, rounded-corner bug.

This icon is intended to support messaging that highlights our premium level of service. It should not be used on its own or in place of the HOMELINK logo, as it is not a standalone brand mark.

HOMELINK PPO Logo

The HOMELINK PPO logo is the preferred mark to use when referencing or promoting the HOMELINK PPO network. It should be used in contexts where the PPO offering is the primary focus of the content.

This logo follows the same usage guidelines as the primary HOMELINK logo, including clear space. It should not be altered or re-configured. There is an option for a light or dark background.

Color Palette

The HOMELINK color palette consists of a primary blue palette, a supporting teal palette, and additional accent and neutral colors.

Accent colors should be used sparingly to add energy and draw attention to key elements within a layout.

Neutral colors complement the primary blue and teal palettes and can be used throughout designs. White can be used both as a background and text color, while black is approved primarily for text.

Primary and secondary swatches can be used to create gradients to add depth and energy, explained on a later page.

Accessible Color Pairings

HOMELINK is committed to using accessible color combinations when pairing text with background colors. Our color pairings are designed to meet WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) contrast standards, helping ensure content is readable for as many people as possible, including those with visual impairments.

To support consistent and accessible design, this guide identifies which colors can be layered on top of each color swatch to achieve optimal readability.

This commitment reflects our company values — prioritizing clarity, inclusivity, and respect for the diverse audiences who interact with our brand.

Typeface

The font at the heart of the HOMELINK brand is Utile, used for the majority of brand touchpoints. The Utile font family is a modern, sans-serif typeface known for its clean lines and geometric shapes. It features a minimalist design that makes it highly legible and versatile for various applications, from web design to print.

The font has a slightly condensed structure, which allows for efficient use of space while maintaining a contemporary feel. Its straightforward aesthetic makes it suitable for both headings and body text for a polished and professional look. Overall, Utile combines functionality with a touch of personality.

Headlines and Titles:

Utile Black or Bold

Responsive support from referral to resolution

Subheadlines: Utile Semibold

Engaged, tech-enabled service that accelerates return to work.

Body Text: Utile Book or Regular

At HOMELINK, timely communication and turnaround are deeply embedded in our DNA. This includes our people, processes, and technology. We believe in maintaining constant communication to ensure responsible recovery and expedite the path to healing. Every new referral follows our proven processes and gets the same personal touch.

Utile Hierarchy

When creating layouts using Utile, clear hierarchy can be established by varying the weights and scale appropriately. We recognize there may be times where flexibility is needed. For example, in a subhead, we may use Bold and not Semibold.

WEIGHTS:

• Utile Black or Bold is used for display headlines or titles. Consider the scale and length of the headline, and use Bold for short/large-scale messages.

• Utile Semibold or Book can be used for subheadlines.

• Utile Book or Regular is used for body text.

Stylized Titles

Styling text creates a dynamic visual hierarchy that emphasizes key messages. Variations in type weight and scale draw the reader’s attention and create visual interest.

Headlines may be styled in a staggered or cascading layout to introduce energy and movement, guiding the reader’s eye and helping present complex information in a clear, engaging way.

Although HOMELINK headlines are typically set in title case, stylized text blocks should use sentence case for all words that aren't proper nouns. When using two shades of blue within a title, choose colors with strong visual contrast — Electric Blue and Navy are too similar in value, while Electric Blue paired with Midnight Blue or Bright Blue provides clearer distinction.

Under OpenType Features / Stylistic Sets, the following should be selected. This has also been updated in the HOMELINK CC Library.

To get your fonts to work in Figma, open Adobe CC. Click on the "fonts" button in the upper right:

Select the fonts you need and click the install icon to install for non-Adobe apps.

Figma & CSS

Under "Type Settings / Details," the following should be selected. This has also been updated in the HOMELINK CC Library.

Glyphs

Utile Text Glyphs

We’ve updated our character style guidance for glyph usage. Alternate glyphs for the letters a and G are no longer used. The default Utile font also correctly renders the lowercase g, so no alternates are needed — just be sure it appears rounded and not looptail (e.g., g).

This change aligns our print and digital typography. Because CSS applies a single font set rather than individual character glyphs, our print styles now follow the same approach for consistency. The examples above show the correct glyph treatment in Adobe and Figma.

Ensure you are using the appropriate Utile alternative j glyph. Use Character Styles in our Adobe Library, or highlight the letter and select the correct glyph.

Utile Black

Be cautious when using Utile Black in large-scale activations. At certain sizes/weights, the text can appear too playful or comical.

Important Note:

• Always use Utile when possible.

• Do not use Arial on the HOMELINK website or in externally designed marketing materials.

• Arial is only intended for functional use in internal documents or environments where custom fonts cannot be embedded.

Arial: Our System Fallback Font

Our primary brand typeface is Utile, and it should be used in all branded materials whenever possible. However, we recognize that Utile is not universally available as a system-installed font, which may lead to display or compatibility issues in certain environments. To ensure consistent and professional communication in these situations, Arial has been designated as our approved fallback font.

Arial should only be used when Utile is not available or practical — such as in system-generated emails, Microsoft Office documents, and PowerPoint presentations. This approach helps maintain visual consistency while allowing flexibility where needed.

Arial

Headlines and Titles: Arial Black or Bold

We believe in maintaining constant communication to ensure responsible recovery and expedite the path to healing. Every new referral follows our proven processes and gets the same personal touch.

Arial Hierarchy

In emails and other technical circumstances where it is not possible to use Utile, we have a simple sans serif fallback to lean on. Do not use Arial on professionally designed materials such as the website, brand campaign advertisements, social media graphics, or any other external-facing communications. This nononsense, sans serif font is available to nearly all users and will provide the most consistent look across these digital platforms.

DESIGN ELEMENTS

Pattern | Photography

HOMELINK

Unique. Energetic. Organic. Human. pattern

We start with real, authentic imagery. Often, these images are sourced from stock photography and feature models in staged or clinical environments that can feel sterile or impersonal. To bring warmth and energy to these visuals, we use the pattern as a transformative layer. By embedding the pattern into the image itself, we reshape the visual narrative. A once-generic physical therapy office becomes dynamic — more human, more organic. The result is imagery that reflects our brand’s warmth and humanity, while remaining grounded in the real, everyday experiences of patients.

The pattern is not merely decorative; it is a tool to add meaning, depth, and authenticity. It also transforms stock imagery into something ownable and distinctly ours. For this reason, the pattern should only be used in relation to people — never as a standalone design element.

Additional guidance:

• The pattern should never draw attention to itself. Its role is to support and emphasize the people in the foreground.

• Pattern elements (“leaves”) should be largely obscured by the person or people in front of them. Avoid having many unobstructed leaves hanging out the sides of the image.

Do not scale the “leaves” to different sizes, or place them into a floral arrangement.

Do not use the pattern on its own. Do not use the pattern as a stroke.

Do not use a solid fill on the pattern.

Pattern Misuse

The pattern should be used sparingly to enhance an image. Do not use it in a way that distracts from the main subject of the imagery. Avoid overusing the pattern, applying it too heavily, or using color outside of the approved pattern gradients.

The pattern should never obscure key subjects, compete with text, or feel purely decorative without purpose.

Photography

When original photography is not available, stock photography will often be used to help communicate the HOMELINK message in marketing materials. Stock photos selected should have an interesting composition. Photo subjects should be age-appropriate for the service being portrayed. For example, Workers’ Compensation subjects should appear to be of working age, not children or adults over age 65.

Photos of patients in recovery or receiving treatment should portray them with more realistic expressions, rather than overly happy as is all too common in stock photography. We want to be sensitive to the end customer and their situation. Photos representing those giving care or treatment or providing service may, but are not required to, include more smiles.

Stock photos should always be properly licensed through a service such as Getty Images or AdobeStock.

DO:

• Use high saturation and warm, rich grading. Photography should feel warm and authentic while staying true to the HOMELINK brand.

• Choose natural, candid selects.

• Choose unique points of view/angles.

Photography Best Practice Examples

This is a quick guide of common mistakes to avoid when sourcing photography. Avoiding these misuses helps to ensure consistent use of brand imagery.

DON’T:

• Choose images that feel staged, awkward, and inauthentic.

• Choose patients that seem overly happy about their injuries.

• Use imagery of individuals that don’t seem of working age in Workers’ Compensation materials.

XNote:

• Use brand-compliant colors like blue, teal, green, yellow, and neutrals for clothing and key elements. Adjust hues in Photoshop if needed.

• Avoid tight or busy patterns that distract from the subject.

• Use post-production to enhance warmth and ensure brand consistency.

Iconography

HOMELINK’s icons are versatile tools used to highlight services and simplify complex concepts. They are intended to be displayed at a small size.

Our icon library is made up primarily of Google’s Material Icons, which use simple, geometric, and consistent shapes to represent concepts clearly. This approach supports a clean, modern visual language aligned with the HOMELINK brand.

Additional, custom icons have been developed where needed to ensure all service lines are represented. The full library is available to designers in our Figma Brand Library

Pictograms are used to represent broader or more abstract concepts, rather than specific services. They help simplify complex ideas through visual storytelling. Use pictograms sparingly — for example, one per section on a webpage or up to four on a slide — to highlight key themes.
