CORPORATE IDENTITY GUIDE
Creative Rationale for Corporate Logo THE LASALLE LOGO Our logo embodies the LASALLE brand. It reflects our history and captures the contemporary focus of the Institution. LASALLE was founded by the late Brother Joseph McNally a De La Salle brother who was also a pioneer of creative arts education in Singapore in 1984. The Chevron graphic is derived from the collar of the De La Salle brothers robe. Its design has evolved over the years to reflect the current style. This mirrors our philosophy to help students acquire skills and knowledge that help them stay relevant with the times. 2
Corporate Typeface The preferred typeface family to complement the LASALLE logo is DIN. The sans serif type is simple, timeless and highly legible. It comes in a variety of weights to offer versatility and add impact to all our communications. The dilligent use of this font will create a distinctive and consistent look for the LASALLE brand.
