RIBBE
Crafting a fresh identity for an educational non-profit advocating for student success.
Expertise
Rhode Island Businesses for Better Education (RIBBE) sought to establish its presence with a robust brand identity and website. Teaming up with Half Street, a Providence-based communications agency, RIBBE aimed to align its identity with its mission of promoting educational excellence in K-12 settings. Nova’s focus was to craft a visual system that exudes professionalism while resonating with the vibrant energy of K-12 education. Striking the right balance between youthful appeal and a mature, credible demeanor was paramount.
The Challenge
In developing the brand identity, we opted for a palette of primary colors complemented by a refined, sans-serif typeface and a minimalist logo design. This approach ensured a visual representation that conveyed both sophistication and approachability while still tying in with the educational theme. A key consideration was the logo’s versatility, which needed to seamlessly integrate across various platforms, the most important being supporting businesses' websites.
Our objective for the website design was to deliver a user-friendly experience that effectively communicated RIBBE’s mission and initiatives. We employed a layout that prioritized clarity of information while incorporating interactive elements to enhance engagement.
Our Solution
Since the launch of RIBBE, the response has been overwhelmingly positive. The organization has witnessed a surge in support from businesses across Rhode Island, reflecting the effectiveness of the brand identity efforts. Furthermore, RIBBE has garnered significant media attention, with coverage in prominent publications further amplifying its visibility and influence in the education advocacy landscape.
By strategically aligning digital presence with a core mission, RIBBE has positioned itself as a leading voice in the pursuit of educational excellence, while celebrating its widespread recognition and support for its initiatives.
