04 Draft Branding StrategyDESERTDISCOVERYCENTER

BRANDINGSTRATEGYCONCEPTGRAPHICSANDVISUALS

Branding is an embodiment of an institutional culture; it is based on a holistic perspective of who an organization is and how they wish to be perceived. A successful organization proactively and deliberately shapes the perceptions of their institution. Thus, a branding strategy is a comprehensive plan that sets the tone for outreach and communication.

The Desert Discovery Center is in the process of refining their public perception and honing their messaging through development of a new brand identity. A collaborative effort will be required between Thinc and the Desert Discovery Center to enable Thinc to prepare concept level graphics in support of the Center’s branding efforts.

Initially we suggest that the Desert Discovery Center revisit and refine several aspects of their communication planning to articulate how the Center is perceived now, and how its wishes to be perceived. Many of these discussions can be accomplished with short conversations within the Center’s staff; others may require polling the larger Desert Discovery Center community.

a. Desert Discovery Center Core Values: (i.e. Sustainability, Desert Preservation) Starting with the mission and vision statements, reduce the core values to a simple, short list.

b. Target Audiences: (i.e. school children, vacationers, etc.). What are their attitudes, knowledge, interests, preferences or behaviors?

c. Current Perceptions of Organization: (i.e. advocates, green politicians) List positive and negative perceptions of the Desert Discovery Center. This will help highlight the opportunities to build on, or areas where we need to reverse perceptions.

d. Desired Personality and Voice: (i.e. upbeat, knowledgeable, neighborly) Once clearly defined, the personality and a voice can be manifested in the visual look and feel, as well as the tone of communications.

e. Market Position and Differentiation: What makes the Center different from the other organizations (i.e.: Desert Botanical Garden or Phoenix Science Museum). What experiences does the Desert Discovery Center provide that no one else can provide and/or match?

f. Naming and Messaging: If a new name is being contemplated for the institution, formal or informal studies should be conducted to test names under consideration, as well as any associated taglines and key messages.

g. Communication Channels: Identify the range of collateral materials for which a visual identity needs to be developed (i.e. newsletters, solicitations, etc.)

Once the materials listed above are in hand in the Schematic Design Phase, Thinc will develop up to three options for the required concept level visual identity elements. Thinc will meet with Center to present each approach in draft form and gather feedback. Based on the Center’s direction, Thinc will refine one approach. Thinc’s deliverables for Schematic Design will include the following:

• Logo • Color Palette • Typography Approach
