DISCOVER ART. DISCOVER YOURSELF.
The Kentucky College of Art + Design is a nexus for redefinition. Combining the capabilities and quality of a large institution with the personality and intimacy of a small school, KyCAD is a true rebel in the stodgy, old school art education landscape. The following themes are decisive in their work, and, in turn, ours.
HOME TO A NEW GENERATION OF ARTISTS
Our identity demonstrates this revolutionary sensibility rooted in a practical foundation. The central mark starts with that foundation and builds out. Its main motif borrows from the school’s mission statement: “We open the door to a creative and rewarding life through higher education in the visual arts.”
CREATIVE EXPRESSION AT THE CENTER
Used on its own, framing student work, or applied by hand – this mark is multi-various and dynamic. The colors are unexpected and energetic. And the language is confident. In short, this identity reflects the personalities of those drawn to this unique place.
