THE BRAND

Bright, Dynamic, Systematic, Fun

 It was important as an organisation that the brand would be adaptable, communicate the student centre's values, represent the different services and affiliations under the organisation, as well as target our younger audience group. Starting out with designing simple and minimal shapes that symoblizes the different elements and areas within the organisation, we soon discovered we were able to create a visual system by exploring different colour combinations and creating patterns. Through these elements, we were able to develop a more cohesive visual brand system.
