Lot Information
Lot 1
The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh is looking for a design agency who will work with the organisation to develop a refreshed brand identity which engages audiences with our vision and mission; communicates the relevance of our scientific and horticultural work; makes a compelling case for support and helps us realise commercial opportunities. We need a design partner who will help us translate our ambitions into a clear verbal and visual identity. Our brand must work across all 4 gardens and our digital platforms. It needs to accommodate the breadth of work we do. We want our brand to be instantly recognisable to communicate our ambition and currency and inspire engagement and collaboration. We need audiences to understand we are a globally significant organisation and a world-class visitor attraction and our brand should be a powerful tool to support fundraising in order to galvanise support for our ambitious strategy from individuals and corporate partners.
