Visual style

Confident, exciting and innovative

We have created an energetic brand that signals to the outside world that we are a confident, exciting and innovative university.

The brand is a visual representation of what we stand for and should help inspire people to do their best.

The identity and its system have been carefully considered, researched and tested to make sure we have created the best image for Teesside University London.

How to use our logo

The logo is only used in two colours, black or white out depending on the background.
