WHY WE BRANDgraphic identity marks are symbols created to support the public recognition of an institution, organization or corporation. each day we see graphic marks that bring recognition to name-brand products or services. universities employ identifying marks to develop recognition among students, alumni and the greater community.
this guide for designers is an assembly of practices for properly using the graphic identity marks that represent Pacific Lutheran university. this guide outlines which graphic identity marks can be used and how they are best applied. there are also resources regarding web usage and athletics branding.
Official PLu logos are available for download under the quicklink box at:

Questions? university communications is responsible for maintaining adherence to the proper use of graphic identity marks and providing assistance. you can reach us at: 253-535-7436 or [email protected]

PRIMARY COLORS BLACK OR WHITE
the rose window signature can be reversed out of a color or printed using black.
the only time when it can be a color other then black or white is when it is being used on a one color job, or on the PLu official stationary.
the PLu signature brand with type lockup are considered one unit and should never be separated, cropped, re-sized or distorted in any way.

the PLu rose window is the iconic symbol of the university. it represents the history and tradition of this institution and speaks to our Lutheran heritage. it is a symbol that connects the students of today with generations of alumni. it is best utilized prominently in development, alumni or in administrative documents. We do not recommend using it for the web or for admission material due to reproduction and religious messaging.
