Branding 101: Consistency is key.
We started with a comprehensive branding audit, discerning the essentials from the expendable. Then, keeping the brand’s core elements intact (logo, fonts, colours), we enriched the visual identity with graphical elements.
With these building blocks in place, we created a clear and concise style guide – a roadmap to ensure consistency – and embarked on professional design for key assets, including:
- School signage
- Letterheads, invoices and email signatures
- Business plans and yearbooks
- A range of awards, from general accolades to the prestigious DUX Award.
Now, armed with their guidelines, key assets and a Brand Kit on Canva – full of editable templates – the school’s team can deliver a delightful and, crucially, consistent brand experience across every medium and channel.
“While a complete rebrand might seem enticing, it isn’t always necessary. Leinster exemplified the power of realignment and education. We didn’t just give them a design; we provided them with the tools, guidelines and knowledge to maintain and celebrate their brand.”
