Multi-channel Visual Branding

Brand System & Website Redesign

Creative direction • Project management • Brand implementation

About

I led the creation of UNC-Chapel Hill Library’s first organization‑wide visual brand, unifying identity across print, digital, web, and signage. In collaboration with leadership, UX, web development, and a freelance designer, I guided brand strategy and developed visual standards that aligned with the broader University brand.

I applied the new brand through a full website redesign. I developed accessible layout systems and web layout guidelines. The site serves approximately 1 million homepage views and 4 million page views annually.

My Role

  • Led brand research, stakeholder engagement, and strategy.

  • Developed brand perception survey to inform brand development.

  • Directed freelance graphic designer on visual brand assets and brand guide package.

  • Planned and executed brand rollout across channels.

  • Collaborated with UX and web teams on brand system for website redesign.

  • Designed templates impacting 500+ pages of web content.

Outcomes

  • A flexible brand system that supports consistency, accessibility, and long‑term growth.

  • Approx. 200 webpages redesigned and over 60 WordPress patterns created.

  • Approx. 75% of students said the redesigned site was easy to use.
