For every child, a fair chance
A Quarto starter aligned with the UNICEF Brand Book 4.0
A publication-first website starter
This sample homepage shows how the UNICEF Quarto design variant can shape a light, readable, and strongly branded website for reports, storytelling, guidance, and advocacy content.
What This Demo Includes
Publication rhythm
Large, calm headings, generous line spacing, and narrow reading measures suited to reports, briefs, and story pages.
Structured content
Callouts, tables, code blocks, and footer areas styled to feel like part of the same UNICEF editorial system.
Design Principles
- Keep the site light-first and content-led.
- Use UNICEF Blue as the strongest brand signal, not as decoration on every element.
- Favor readability over novelty.
- Let photography lead major landing and campaign moments, while analytical pages stay quieter.
- Preserve a credible, global-public-interest tone.
