The BU Core Design employs graphical headings at the
top of content regions on all pages. This is a way to present content
headings with a more polished look than plain-text headings. Graphical
headings are appropriate for top-level, second-level, high-profile and high-traffic
pages.
Content Headings: The BU Core Design features two sizes of graphical content headings.
A primary content heading and a secondary content heading. Both graphical
headings use the same font, but at different sizes. This font only uses uppercase letterforms, so uppercase letters appear slightly
larger while lowercase letters still look like capital letters but
are actually a bit smaller in size.
Feature Heading: The BU Core Design also features graphical headings for featured page
regions. Feature headings are usually found on a site's home page,
and may include a set of links immediately to the right of the heading
that link to feature-related content.
Content Navigation Heading: Pages in the BU Core Design that utilize a content navigation menu in the column along the right side of the page also use graphical headings for the content navigation menu. This heading distinquishes the links as a navigational unit, and the heading graphic itself also serves as a link back to the home page for that specific category of pages.
