WeltBrand proposal for a study-abroad consultancy

A proposed identity for a study-abroad brand, in which one letter, the T, carries the whole journey: plane, book and graduate.

A brand proposal: a creative direction we presented, not a launched brand.

The brief, as read from the proposal

What Welt needed

This is a proposal: a creative direction, not a launched brand. It has no written brief page, so the brief is read from its content. An international-education brand needed a mark that feels aspirational and global, yet trustworthy enough for students and their parents.

The proposal answers by showing the direction rather than stating a brief: study-abroad dreams, learning and a successful career ahead, in one symbol.

The idea

The world is your campus.

The direction is built on one line and one symbol. The final T of the WELT wordmark becomes a gold wing on a white stem.

In the proposal's own words it combines an aeroplane facing forward (global opportunities, international journeys and study-abroad dreams), an open book (knowledge, learning and a brighter future) and a figure with arms raised in a V (achievement, confidence and a successful career ahead). One glyph reads as leave, learn, arrive.

"The world is your campus": the proposed key visual, with open sky, a degree in hand and a plane overhead.

Logo

The proposed mark

A custom, sharp-cornered wordmark. The W is a long, low, open chevron like a swept wing, and the letters have flat terminals and angled cuts. The T's crossbar becomes a gold wing, two flat blades meeting in a V notch: the only gold in the lockup, and a symbol that can stand alone.

INTERNATIONAL sits beneath in widely tracked capitals. The proposal shows the lockup reversed on navy, positive on a white card and small on photography. As a proposal, it doesn't set clear-space or minimum-size rules yet.

The symbol on its own: a gold wing on a white stem makes the T.

Colour

The palette, sampled from the proposal

The proposal states no colour values. These are sampled from flat areas of the artwork. Click or tap a colour to copy its hex.

Type

Three faces, one voice

  • Custom lettering

    The WELT wordmark, drawn rather than typeset.

  • Corbel Bold

    Supporting captions.

  • Wide-tracked capitals

    The INTERNATIONAL descriptor and the campaign headline (outlined in the proposal).

The proposal ships its lettering as outlines, so only the caption face is named.

System

Everything around the logo

  • The gold wing: the T's crossbar as a stand-alone symbol and the only warm accent.
  • A three-icon symbol set (a forward-facing plane, an open book, a figure with arms raised in a V) in slate grey on navy, each with a one-line meaning.
  • Flat deep-navy grounds with a single gold accent: restrained and editorial.
4 more from the book
  • Wide letter-spacing on every secondary capital line.
  • Photography: bright open sky, a low angle, a student celebrating with a degree scroll and a plane overhead (presentation imagery).
  • Architectural material: fluted navy panels with dimensional white letters and a raised gold wing.
  • Voice: short, declarative, second person. "The world is your campus."
The three ideas behind the mark, in the proposal's own words: global journeys, learning, and a confident career ahead.
