About this template
Built for high-stakes professional environments
This template captures the specific visual identity of Utrecht University, moving beyond generic academic slides.
The cover immediately establishes place and prestige using a high-contrast diagonal split, featuring a warm-toned photograph of the historic Dom Tower framed by yellow spring blooms.
Its color palette is anchored by a vibrant #F8CB21 yellow, used as a structural sidebar on the title slide and as a bold floods in the workflow diagrams.
Typography choices include a robust serif for headlines, ensuring readability for complex research titles, paired with a clean sans-serif for body text and data points.
The deck progression flows from a broad institutional introduction to specific process workflows, making it ideal for researchers presenting to grant committees or international peers who need to see a strong affiliation with the institution.
Design DNA
Typography, color, layout — decisions that define it
The design system relies on a 'Solar Yellow' accent that defines the Utrecht brand.
Layouts use a consistent horizontal rule in yellow to separate headers from content, creating a stable visual anchor.
The typography utilizes a classic serif for main headings ('AI for a Better Tomorrow') to evoke academic tradition, while secondary headings use bold sans-serif for clarity.
A distinctive feature is the iconography style: thin-line black icons encased in solid yellow circles, providing a modern, accessible feel to technical descriptions.
Grid structures vary between a 50/50 split for image-heavy slides and a clean left-aligned text layout for data, using subtle thin vertical lines as separators for statistics like student and staff counts.
