Chesterfield Montessori School

Education Worth Exploring

The Objective

Design an entirely new brand identity and visual voice to help tell the Montessori story of excellence in education — a unique children’s learning environment centered on exploration, discovery, and creativity.

The Approach

Working closely with the passionate Montessori, we created a more cohesive brand experience across every phase of their communication materials – beginning with brand positioning and a compelling brand promise. The unique Montessori brand was expressed through a new brand identity, relevant brand messaging, including a tagline — Discover the Difference — and a new comprehensive website. Extensive on-site photography was produced to help visualize the open, bright and colorful learning environment. Basic geometric shapes, clean typography, and a limited, bright color palette, created a differentiated, unique visual brand voice.

Brand Voice & Tone

Brand Identity

The identity incorporates simple geometric shapes, a familiar element used in interactive learning and building of ideas and solutions. Understanding how the “pieces fit together” is key to the learning process. These geographic shapes are incorporated as letterforms in the brand identity, as well as the website and all communication materials.

Web Design & Development

The website represents the integrated and cohesive brand experience. The new identity and brand assets – photography, color, type and icons, is presented in an easy-to-navigate, open and clean design that parallels the learning environment enjoyed by the students.

Conclusion

The new brand and visual voice accurately represents the sophisticated, thoughtful and uniquely creative environment and learning process that Chesterfield Montessori School has designed for its students.
