Alton College Identity

In 2008 French Creative participated a 4 way credentials pitch and was chosen to develop the Alton College rebrand. The original brief was to create a very different and dynamic identity from the College's competitors. The original design of the logo and website had been done in-house  by the College staff  back in the eighties and had suffered over the years from being redrawn and misrepresented. French Creative developed a new design that would appeal to the College's main teenage market using colourful wave imagery and simple strap line. The main logo could, however, be reworked into various sub-brands in the College portfolio where a more corporate image was more suitable. The new branding has been applied to everything from stationery, application forms, clothing and marketing material to vehicles, banners and signage. Alongside the development of the new identity French Creative also redesigned all of the Colleges' marketing material.


"I was recommended to Carol for a major rebranding of our college and since then, I haven’t let her go! Her enthusiasm, dedication, professionalism and sense of humour have ensured a long lasting collaboration.

Carol’s designs are always fresh, well targeted and thoroughly considered. She works incredibly tirelessly to get results and always pulls something out of the bag. Even when you think you have reached the best design, there is always better to follow. 

I would recommend her to everyone and I look forward to many more years of working (and laughing) with her."
