CASE STUDY OVERVIEW
To develop a brand with a dynamic visual system, reflecting the youthful energy of students, that will be implemented on variety of print and digital collateral.
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.
BRAND APPLICATION
Our adaptable and visual system implemented on print and digital collateral, signages, and social media.
