PR
Research Presentation (Julie & Matt from Aubs & Mugg)
Lots of research conducted, some still ongoing related to faculty and students
Brand is a story, brand designers are translators of meaning and intent of the story
Comparative analysis - wide lens that covers consumer to academic
Consumer very colourful, visible, loud whereas academic are lighter, more muted,
The fonts move from sans serif (modern) to serif (Omni, ProQuest - more classic, traditional)
Google vs JSTOR
Presentation of academic focused websites , don’t have same appetite for enjoyable consumption of design
Focus on quality content - design should not distract from content
Wikipedia - “Intentionally undesigned” - relying on reputation as design is somewhat basic/aged
Netflix - house a lot of content that isn’t all Netflix, good example at creating neutral brand base
TPL - public library - balanced approach
Introduction to 3 brand principles - all equally important, an internal tool
