The new Wake Forest logo
Today we held a forum for students about the Visual Identity project, which was formed to review and update Wake Forest’s graphic identity – how we represent ourselves in words, photos, fonts, logos, etc. I am part of the Visual Identity committee.
Probably the most recognizable deliverable of this project was a redesigned Wake Forest logo. If you have not yet received an email from the University about the logo and the visual identity, you can check out the links below:

The process of the creation of the logo and related materials was a little like giving birth – it took a long time, we had some pains along the way, but at the end of the road, our committee was so pleased with the final result.
See what you think.
I will have more about the logo in the coming days - but just got back from a 2 day road trip. We breezed into Atlanta Monday afternoon to hold the “All Access Atlanta” event - which was a ton of fun - and left this morning so I could get back for the meeting to reveal the logo. I did not even get to see my friends from Atlanta - since I knew i would be there for about 18 hours and would be working most of it.
So tonight I am tired. More blogging once I am over my car trip-lag.
Now if you’ll just update the web site. I don’t think it’s changed since at least 2000. Starting to look dowdy and out-of-date. Hire some web development professionals!
