Imagery

Image overview

As an extension of the existing print guidelines, people, and their living and working conditions are the preferred subjects for photos. To these may be added related images of systems, such as public services or social dialogue mechanisms, and crowd scenes that convey concepts such as family life, intergenerational cooperation, volunteering or migration.

Images should generally be of people in the workplace, home or in public places. More abstract photos (a maze, a crossroads, Newton’s cradle) can also be used if they match the subject matter better than available photos of people.

Illustrations and schematic images are not completely deprecated, but should be used exceptionally.

All images should have an aspect ratio of 16:9.

The final 3 columns to the right-hand side of the image should contain 'Related content'.
