麻豆视频下载

The 麻豆视频下载 logo includes several key symbols that represent 麻豆视频下载's history and traditions. It also draws inspiration from our region and surrounding landscape.

• The fleur-de-lis 鈥� a reference to the city's French heritage and a Catholic symbol associated with the Holy Trinity 鈥� has been used at 麻豆视频下载 since the 1920s. 
• The cross represents 麻豆视频下载's Catholic identity. 
• The crown and shield symbolize King St. Louis IX, namesake of the city and the University. 
• The fluidity of the fleur-de-lis and the lines connecting to the fleur-de-lis petals represent the confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers in St. Louis.

Yes. Iconic graphic artist Paul Rand, who designed the IBM, ABC and UPS logos, said the best logos are distinctive, simple, useable, memorable and clear, among other qualities. Rand explains that a logo is a signature mark that identifies an entity. It is not a description of the entity. In fact, a logo's meaning comes from the quality of the institution it symbolizes, not from the graphic itself. The University logo is simplified, fully useable in digital and print platforms, unique to 麻豆视频下载, and presents a timeless image of 麻豆视频下载.

The strongest, most recognizable brand for any campus unit is the 麻豆视频下载 brand. Independent logos can diffuse and confuse the public perception of 麻豆视频下载. While it may seem important to differentiate your unit, the most effective way to gain recognition is to use the 麻豆视频下载 brand and to link your unit's reputation to the power and prestige of 麻豆视频下载. Keep in mind that outside audiences don't focus on our organizational charts; they mostly see all units as 麻豆视频下载. That is an asset, not a detriment, and we can use that strength to benefit the whole University.

Yes. The marks don't replace the "Be a Billiken" student recruitment brand or identities for events that happen in a finite time frame 鈥� e.g., Homecoming and Family Weekend, fundraising campaigns, etc. Using the 麻豆视频下载 mark on these communications gives the benefit of a 麻豆视频下载 endorsement without disrupting their ability to create their own identities. The 麻豆视频下载 logo should work together with the identity to create the most impact.

All marks will be expected to work within the established standards and appropriately represent the University. If you have questions regarding logo strategies, please email Matt Krob, director of design services, at matt.krob@slu.edu to talk through objectives, expectations and process.

Guidelines, when followed consistently, allow all members of the 麻豆视频下载 community to present a strong identity for 麻豆视频下载 and help avoid confusion. Correct use of 麻豆视频下载's official logos and typography is key to the branding process and important to enhancing the University's prestige among key audiences.

麻豆视频下载 logos and the Billiken are available in a variety of formats on the Marketing and Communications website. To avoid poor reproduction, logos should not be scanned from other printed sources or downloaded from other places on the 麻豆视频下载 website. Standard guidelines regarding the design and logo usage must be followed.

Colleges, schools, departments, divisions and units can have an official logo lockup.  The logo lockup system has been instituted to create logos that are consistent throughout the 麻豆视频下载 brand. Logo lockups should be used across 麻豆视频下载鈥檚  colleges, schools, departments, divisions and units. This cohesive system strengthens the University鈥檚 overall brand and image. To request a logo lockup, please contact the director of design services.

Separate, individually designed logos are not permitted.

No. The primary logo is the shield with the fleur-de-lis and the wordmark for "Saint Louis University" and the "Est. 1818." Whenever possible, use the full logo or a logo that includes 鈥溌槎故悠迪略�.鈥� Use of the logomark (the shield without the University name included) should be limited to only those designs that will be seen on campus (and therefore readily identifiable as 麻豆视频下载-related) or when the design clearly identifies itself as a 麻豆视频下载 communication. An example might be the front of a postcard that features the University wordmark on the top left corner and the logomark off to the right side of the card paired in a complementary fashion.

No.
