Redesigning the Tornado Brand
Building a Brand- Why?
A BRAND IS MORE THAN A LOGO
• It’s a visual and recognizable
representation of an organization.
• It’s the promise behind the product you
deliver.
• It should be memorable.

A brand is a visible representation of an organization and it should embody the
ideal of the organization. The way we make our ideas tangible is through our “brand
identity”. If our brand is the sum of all the impressions a person has
about Concordia University Texas, our brand identity is comprised of
the sum of all the things we create to carry our messages to the
community – like our brochures, magazines, flyers and our web site. In this context,
community refers to all audiences we communicate with – potential students, current
students, parents, donors, churches and many others. If we want to cultivate a clear,
consistent, memorable impression of Concordia University Texas, it is
important that the ways we communicate and support the idea
behind our brand are equally clear, consistent and memorable.

Note the shadow added to the wordmark to add
depth. Here in CTX Purple at 25%. This works well
with embroidered images as well.
The color of the shadow in the wordmark
mirrors the lines of motion in the shield logo
– also in 25% of CTX Purple.

Uses official Serpentine
font. Its square shape was
desirable for certain
placement. It also further
signifies our modified
acronym: CTX.
Here, it’s used on the
baseball field. An outline
was added to add depth and
to stand out against another
dark background color,
green.

We took the Serpentine letters from the interlocking CTX logo and applied them to
the earlier assets shown including the angled background, Tornado with shield,
shadow on text and multiple outlines.

‚When you think of the blur of all the brands that are out there, the ones you believe in and the ones you remember ... they are the ones that stand for something.‛
Ralph Laurenfashion designer
A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well… If you do build a great experience, customers tell each other about that. Word of mouth is very powerful.
