Brand Architecture
The 成人大片 brand architecture defines the relationships of entities within the university. This section outlines the brand classifications and provides tools to help you determine how you can strengthen your brand as well as the 成人大片 brand.
Our goal is to create a clear framework and to unify communications across the diverse units so that 成人大片's voice can rise above the noise.
Please connect with University Relations to determine where you fit into the brand architecture. Contact tmubrand@torontomu.ca with requests.

Brand Classifications
The university brand is the overarching identity of the university. It is the voice used in top-level communications and when the university is speaking as one unified entity.
Brand Impression: 鈥淭his is 成人大片.鈥
Examples: Alumni, Human Resources
University branded communications consistently use all elements of the visual toolkit, except the tertiary palette.

SRC/Academic brands are parts of the university that are most closely associated with its mission of learning and scholarly, research and creative activity.
Promotional materials created on behalf of a Faculty or Department for a lab, centre, institute, etc. should follow the SRC/Academic brand guidelines.
Materials created by faculty such as reports, courseware, public presentations etc. may follow 成人大片鈥檚 brand guidelines but they are not required to. When publishing a book you may use the name of the university but not the logo.
Brand Impression: 鈥淭his is part of what 成人大片 does as a university.鈥
Examples: Faculty of Engineering and Architectural Science, School of Fashion
Academic/SRC brands have more flexibility of the visual toolkit to differentiate their brand. The following elements are consistently used:

Sub-brands are part of the university, but they revolve around activities beyond its mission of learning and scholarly, research and creative activity. They are managed by university administration.
Brand Impression: 鈥淭his is connected to 成人大片, but different than its core learning function.鈥
Example: 成人大片 Athletics
The use of the visual toolkit is flexible. The university photography style, graphics devices and tertiary colour palette are optional elements of a sub-brand鈥檚 visual language. A sub-brand may develop its own versions of these components.

Independent brands are associated with the 成人大片 community, but are independently managed by students or other external stakeholders. Examples include: student groups/associations and student-led initiatives, independent alumni-led initiatives that are not connected to an alumni association, community events, or companies started at the DMZ.
Brand Impression: 鈥淭his is independent from 成人大片.鈥
Example: 成人大片 Athletics
Independent brands should not use the 成人大片 visual toolkit, including the University logo or brand marks. However, and/or 成人大片 faculties may use the University name, in written form, to identify themselves.
Students who have brand questions should contact their respective Department or Faculty and ask to connect with their MarComm lead. For marketing requests regarding alumni-led initiatives please reach out to one of the University Advancement Faculty contacts.

Alumni associations that have been approved via University Advancement (UA) may request to use a 成人大片 logo lock-up that identifies their association name. Requests should be sent to one of the University Advancement Faculty contacts. Alumni association materials that include the respective association's logo lock-up may be brand checked via the UA Faculty contact.
