BCW Global

Corporate Identity
Project Overview
An updated brand aesthetic helps a global company to communicate the intangible concepts of being a thought-leader in moving people and ideas forward. BCW required a rebrand to elevate its aesthetic and reintroduce the brand as an innovative thought-leader. A key consideration focused on creating an internal brand for employees as well as a public-facing brand – with both existing in a complementary relationship.

The glowing light effect strengthens the idea that BCW is always ahead of the curve, just out of reach and always moving forward. The glowing lights are exactly the same for both the public-facing and internal brands, however they take on new life with the light and dark backgrounds that support them respectively. BCW's tagline "moving people" was the inspiration for these guiding lights, a way to visualize a concept that drives millions of people and brands each and every day.

The corporate identity system included an accessible color palette that would extend their current limitations, custom pattern development, updated typography, internal and external photography, employee on-boarding kits, email templates, social media templates, awareness ads, and corporate global PPT deck, all executed for both the external-facing bright identity and the internal dark identity.

For external communications, we aimed to convey a light-hearted and optimistic tone, utilizing sweeping bright whites and grays complemented by vibrant pop colors. These colors symbolized innovation, ideas, and that intangible force that propels individuals forward.
The perfect foil.
Internal Corporate Identity
2019-2020
The dark aesthetic is the perfect foil to the bright optimism that the public-facing brand identity portrays. The black background gives new life to the same bright pop colors that span the brand, but gives an additional sense of allure, mystery, and intrigue. Internal efforts, such as powerpoint decks, employee recruitment, and internal web portal easily slip into this darker skin to let employees know it's a message specifically for them.
Moving people.
External Corporate Identity
2019-2020
BCW aims to embody its internal mantra, "be people who are moving people," through a visual and functional representation. We introduced a dynamic moving icon that integrates the brand's guiding light. This icon visually reinforces the company's commitment to action and movement, demonstrating BCW's proactive approach. The in-motion icon is designed to be versatile, serving not only as a visual brand marker but also as a functional tool. It can be used as an email avatar, making messages more noticeable and engaging in users' inboxes. The dynamic moving icon effectively communicates BCW's core value of movement and engagement, distinguishing its communications in a crowded digital environment.
