A family of guidelines were produced to cover multiple categories relating to brand rollout and to ensure correct guardianship use throughout the business.
A new icon system
The new brand hadn’t covered how the brand icon suite shoudl look. So a new visual approach was produced and applied across a vast selection of iconography topics.
The icon family was developed to include own-able features fro the Unite Students brand. such as gap breaks in stokes and soft rounded ends which match back to the underline within the Unite Students logo.
The icons were created on 32px x 32px grids to ensure they have optimum performance on digital platforms.
