# Fox Sports — Brand Spec

## 01 Brand Overview
FOX Sports is the digital home for live scores, video, betting and storytelling across America's biggest leagues. The identity is bold, broadcast-grade and unapologetically loud — a black-and-white editorial spine punctuated by decisive primary-blue and broadcast-red accents. It positions itself as fast, authoritative and fan-first: "Follow your favorite teams, players, shows and more."

### Aesthetic

### Tone of Voice

## 05 Layout posture
- Dense, magazine-style multi-column grid: a sticky score bar up top, a slim left utility rail, a wide content column and a right sidebar of headlines/videos.
- League sections are introduced with full-width solid-color banners (blue NFL, teal CFB) carrying a mono league logo and condensed caps label.
- Hairline rules separate stacked headlines; card imagery uses baked-in FOX/league bug overlays.
- Emphasis via scale contrast — oversized condensed headlines against small gray metadata ("2 HOURS AGO • FOX SPORTS").

## 06 Anti-defaults
- No soft pastels or gradient-heavy hero cards — color arrives as flat, saturated broadcast blocks.
- No large corner radii; the system stays near-square (5px cards, small chip radii), never pill-rounded everywhere.
- Never center long-form body copy — content is left-aligned and information-dense.
- Avoids thin/light display weights; headlines are always heavy condensed caps (inferred from the FOX wordmark's block-cut letterforms).
- No decorative serif type — the brand is exclusively industrial sans.

## 07 Logo
- Wordmark-only mark: "FOX" set in ultra-bold condensed caps with the signature perfectly circular "O", above a narrower "SPORTS" bar with clipped, chamfered corners — geometric, muscular, broadcast-derived.
- Provide white-on-dark (primary) and black-on-light variants; the mark is monochrome by design and reproduces cleanly at small sizes.
- Clear-space: at least the height of the "O" on all sides; minimum legible width ~64px for the stacked lockup.
- Never recolor the mark off its black/white monochrome, never condense or slant it further, and never separate "FOX" from "SPORTS" in the primary lockup.

## 08 Imagery
- Editorial sports photography: athletes mid-action, close-cropped portraits, sideline/press-conference candids, high contrast and saturated.
- Thumbnails carry baked-in branded overlays — FOX/league bugs, condensed-caps show titles ("FOLLOW THE MONEY", "TOP 10 TUESDAY"), and score/matchup tags.
- Team-context pages lead with a solid team-color hero block and centered team logo.
- Video-first framing with play-button overlays and duration chips.
- Avoid soft-focus lifestyle stock, illustration, or muted desaturated treatments.
