Municipal Makeover: Digital Slant to Create New Brand, Logo for City of Logan
LOGAN, Utah, January 16, 2007 – The City of Logan is getting an updated look with the help of Logan-based branding and marketing agency Digital Slant. The City and Mayor Randy Watts have chosen Digital Slant to create a new logo system and brand for the City, as well as a new website and an educational brochure about the City and its departments. Preliminary designs are in progress for the new logo system, which will replace the current City seal and various departmental logos.
“Logan is a friendly, growing, vibrant community, and it deserves a visual representation that conveys those qualities,” said Cami Boehme, President of Digital Slant. “Beyond just the visual aspect, our goal is to create a progressive, recognizable identity that will unify the departments and communicate more clearly with Logan’s residents about the services the City provides. As a longtime Logan residents and businesspeople, our team is excited to work on a project that is so beneficial to the City and our fellow residents.”
The new logo will face a broad audience of Logan residents and visitors, Utah State University students, and Cache Valley residents. The range of possible messages for the logo is equally broad. Digital Slant is up to the task of finding the right focus; they will use their Core Branding process to decide what the primary message should be and filter other messages. In 2003, Digital Slant successfully redesigned the Cache Valley Tourist Council logo, a project with similar challenges.
Logan residents and others who are interested in the project can track its progress by visiting Digital Slant’s website at www.digitalslant.com and following the “Rebranding Logan City” link.
