Technische Hochschule Augsburg
Finding a new identity & corporate design
Brand transformation
of a university
More than ever, the university needs to see itself as a brand - in the competition for students, for research projects and funding and as a partner to industry. After 50 years as Augsburg University, it was renamed Augsburg University of Technology in 2023 and thus transformed into a futuristic, interdisciplinary technical university. A new identity had to be developed along with a cross-faculty sense of unity that reflects the future and image of the university that everyone stands behind.
The strong message: Together we shape the world
In order to filter out THA's identity, more than 80 widely diverse university members were involved in the branding process in extensive transformation workshops and surveys. Remarkable: Despite the broad participation and the demanding committee work, the brand process was implemented in a quick sprint of 6 months.
The unique
connects
Augsburg Technical University is a place where interdisciplinary work is combined with meaningful concepts in teaching and research. A place where people have a central role and where personal development is seen as its social mission. This unique connection, symbolized as a ribbon, becomes the heart of the new visual design. Derived from the logo, it runs through all design elements as a key visual and design language.
The full range
of design
The new visual identity is as versatile as the university itself. A new identity with values, a mission and a vision has been developed and a radically new, bold corporate design that is strikingly individual and offers a great deal of flexibility for different university-specific requirements. A design that covers the spectrum from unconventional and striking to minimalist. In addition to the expressive illustrations, the brand type developed by Nolan Paparelli as part of the corporate design with variable glyphs ensures a high recognition value.
