Pitt Shield Pattern
The Pitt Shield Pattern is derived from the grid at the heart of the Pitt shield and serves as a versatile design element. Use only the provided files of the Pitt Shield Pattern to ensure consistency; do not attempt to recreate or modify the pattern in any way.
This pattern can be used as an edge element to anchor layouts, adding structure and visual interest. Additionally, it can function as a tab to anchor specific pieces of content, such as a logo, ensuring consistency and cohesion across various applications. By integrating the Pitt Shield Pattern thoughtfully, we reinforce our brand identity and create unified, engaging designs.
