Amplifying the transformative power of PLACE

Piedmont’s foundational brand positioning spotlights purpose-forward messaging to inspire internal audiences and intentional storytelling to cultivate external trust. Through an adaptive design process, we resolved and defined a versatile identity system inspired by the connection and experience deeply felt within each Piedmont PLACE. The system includes a complementary set of formal, external facing logomarks and custom-crafted ‘signatures’ for internal and property-level applications, anchored by a color palette conveying warmth and hospitality.

We next advanced a range of connected brand marketing tools, from everyday stationery to specialty video and customized presentation decks. The capstone of the Piedmont brand is its corporate website, an immersive digital experience, punctuated by connective story and feature photography, that proudly presents PLACEmaking and its tangible impact.
