Work
DC developed a stylish back-to-school look for this growing learning platform. A new brand identity and comprehensive visual system celebrated the diversity of teachers and students and brought humanity to a previously transactional-feeling platform.
The new system, featuring custom art and lettering by the Bézier wizards at Underware, is fluid and rhythmic, reflecting the lifelong, iterative nature of learning. The new tagline, “Be Able” evokes the potential of personal transformation through education and trumpets the optimism of the founder’s mission.
