Kenyon

Welcome to Gambier, Ohio. A small town a bit off the beaten path, the place Kenyon calls home. Lucky us, getting the chance to craft a far-reaching brand strategy and admissions campaign for this unique place.

Building on legacy

The brand is anchored by an updated Kenyon logotype. We dropped “College” from the name and worked closely with Nick Sherman to redraw the former Kenyon logotype adding personality and making the mark more usable—particularly at small scales.

Building brand guidelines that work

Working side by side with Kenyon’s communications team, we developed brand guidelines that balance brand aspirations with practical pragmatism.

A social strategy for the many faces of Kenyon

A critical component of the brand strategy was solving how to express the Kenyon identity through its many social channels. We crafted a thoughtful approach that allows brand extensions to flex while maintaining consistency across all of the College’s affiliates.
