THE FEDERATED BRAND
THE FEDERATED BRAND
Our updated brand and identity honors the Federated legacy, embraces the future and embodies our welcoming community. It is important for our brand to be:
CONSISTENT: By having rules and restrictions, it becomes possible to communicate a consistent brand identity. Consistency is important in making our brand recognizable and reliable. When a brand's identity is cohesive, it increases the brand's perceived value.
RECOGNIZABLE: Maintaining these brand guidelines allows Federated to be more immediately recognizable within our community and with our target audience. Building a recognizable brand can take time and patience, but can be streamlined by adhering to the brand guidelines.
STANDARDIZED: Our brand guidelines are composed of standards regarding use of visual elements and messaging. These rules include when to use a logo, how to space the logo, guidance on imagery, the hierarchy of color and typography and messaging.
Guidance, titles and templates are available for download below. For questions about anything related to the Federated brand or communication, please contact Brooke Strong at communications@fedchurch.org or 440.247.6490 x111.
BRAND
GUIDE:
A brand guide serves as a reference document and resource that communicates the parameters of the Federated brand.
LOGO
FILES:
There are the four iterations of our logo: stacked and horizontal with and without the tagline. The stacked configuration is the preferred logo and should be used foremost.
SUBBRAND LOGOS:
We have developed an extended brand architecture that allows for distinct but cohesive identification of each Federated program. Color distinguishes focus areas and typography establishes brand hierarchy.

Templates are available for the creation of presentations, brochures, letterhead and various other communications tactics. Please contact us to learn more.
