A Healthy Refresh

UCSF is driven by the idea that when the best research, the best education and the best patient care converge, great breakthroughs are achieved. This statement served as the university’s guiding vision and the inspiration behind a new identity system.

UCSF required a flexible identity system to bring visual alignment to its research enterprises, patient care facilities, administrative services and exceedingly complex matrix of schools, departments and academic centers.
