Logo Design & Visual Brand Identity

Project details

What we need
  • Consultation regarding the Organization's current branding and desired branding objectives
  • Visual branding guidelines / style guide that include specific colors, fonts, and other graphic design elements to use in print and digital communications materials
  • High-resolution logo delivered electronically (in formats for digital and print use)
Additional details

Our logo needs to evolve to be more iconic and we lack: guidelines on the use of our logo, variations on the logo for various uses, recommended fonts, organisational colours, graphic elements etc.

Over the 18 years of the organisation's history, the African Centre of Biodiversity has developed a visual style that relies predominantly on using artist's illustrations and some infographics and we would like this to form the inspiration for developing a stronger visual identity.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a logo, an organisational pamphlet and a theory of change, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a website and images of previous publications, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,817 , allowing us to spend more money on our research, advocacy and lobbying activities, which includes a catalysing role of bringing farmer organisations together to discuss how to lobby at policy level.

A more coherent and striking visual identity will assist us to interact more effectively on a broader range of platforms. A more impactful brand presence could lead to attracting new audiences and streamline our communication activities, freeing up time for us to do more.
