Favicons. Colours. Typefaces. Graphic devices. Photography. Illustration. Iconography. Used effectively a visual identity should express a brand’s unique personality. Even when the logo is covered up!
A visual identity should be coherent enough to be instantly recognisable but flexible enough to be easily applied across every brand presence from a coffee morning to a helicopter.
This Brand Breakfast celebrated the art of contemporary visual identity design.

About the Brand Breakfast
CharityComms’ Brand Breakfast is an informal forum where brand managers come together to discuss issues of mutual interest and share examples of good practice.
These events are a great opportunity to meet your peers, compare notes on workplace practices and share successes, ideas, challenges and inspiration. The group is designed to encourage networking and peer to peer support, sharing issues in a ‘safe’ environment.
If you’re interested in presenting at a future event or joining the steering group, please contact Vanessa Weddell.
