Product Description

Review

This large format textbook delivers beautifully on its promise: it is a contemporary, visually enticing and comprehensive introduction to branding - from theory to execution.
--allaboutbranding.com

Fittingly, this introduction to branding is colorful, lively, and compelling. The pages are full of photographs, meaningful interviews, practical theories, and plenty of illustrations, logos, and examples of successful--and unsuccessful--branding campaigns. --brandchannel.com

This book is for visual arts students or professionals interested branding fundamentals such as differentiation, changing trends, reputation, and capturing `brand spirit'.

Book Description

Brands today have never been so powerful and prominent, so much so that branding is now taught as an academic subject in colleges around the world. Today a brand is no longer just a logo on a soup tin, but a carefully orchestrated experience, supported by complex marketing budgets and sophisticated psychology. One of the pitfalls of designing for brands is to see the brand solely in terms of the graphic element, rather than part of a whole creative process. More Than a Name: An Introduction to Branding is a modern, visually-oriented textbook, offering a comprehensive introduction to the world of branding; the thinking behind the creation of brands, the execution of a brand and the key to maintaining a successful brand. Full of practical tips and real-life examples from some of the world’s most well-known brands and brand agencies, this book will be indispensable for visual arts students, copywriters, brand strategists and marketeers.

5.0 out of 5 stars A standard work?, 10 Nov 2005
By S. F. Everhard - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: More Than A Name: An Introduction to Branding (Paperback)
The issue of branding and graphic design has been long overlooked. For many brand is merely that; a logo or graphic mark, a colourful shorthand for the corporate image. In reality brand bites deep into the psyche of the business, and is the rallying point for strategic positioning and company culture. This book is the first to examine the gulf between the image of the brand and the values behind it, and makes the case eloquently for both elements of branding to be conceived within the same strategic process.

Designers need to understand the full imnpact of the treatment and usage of the graphical marks that they develop and strategists need to realise the invaluable role that the design team can make to the process of brand evolution and renewal. Melissa Davis introduces controversy into the arena, the pressures on corporate brand development and the emerging issues of social responsibility that are rapidly being engineered into the brand DNA by the best in the field. Highly recommended read with great examples!
