The Evocities Brand
The brand name Evocities represents the grouping of seven vibrant and progressive NSW regional cities which offer fantastic career and lifestyle opportunities.
The Evocities are Albury, Armidale, Bathurst, Dubbo, Orange, Tamworth and Wagga Wagga.
Evocities are stand-out regional hubs selected because of their economic and population growth, affordable property prices, number of schools, hospitals and universities, and facilities and services they offer to their residents.
ThEsE arE CiTiEs of:
ENERGY
VISION
OPPORTUNITY
The brand encapsulates the energy these cities have always displayed in consolidating and building their great communities, the vision they have displayed in doing that – and that they retain as they move to the future – and the opportunity they present to anyone with the simple commonsense to make them home.
It is a brand that conjures thoughts of cities which are evolving, which are e-connected, which are environmentally progressive and which are employment focussed.

Background:

The logo blends key typographical elements with a simple representation of an organic life form. The ‘v’ element is that of a plant pot or small garden which is the infant start of any large tree grown with human nurturing. The evo-leaves represent the foliage of three key colours –
Green, orange and blue.
What is the “Brand”?
Green: Clean, fresh and the symbol of healthy growth.
orange: Energy, power and industry.
Blue: Clear open thinking, opportunity, open blue skies, progress
The Evocity logo is to be used when referring to an individual city or when comparisons are made to a ‘Capital City’.
The Evocities logo is the main logo to be used when referring to the Evocities brand and campaign.

Tagline
Logo should never be shown smaller than 15mm.
Logos smaller than 35mm or where printing limitations restrict the use of small text sizes, the no-tag logo version should be employed.
The EVOCITIES brand is supported by a secondary label which further teases out the realities of what the brand and associated marketing is about.
ThE arT of LivinG
“art” supports the advertising concept »(illustrations depicting ‘art’), and works to add a degree of sophistication to the individual cities and the umbrella brand.
“living” quite simply conveys that these cities »are not “dull and boring’’ that they are alive and well and energetic, that they are vibrant and progressive.
Together “the art of living” communicates that »the 7 evocities offer a lifestyle that combines work life balance, open spaces, beautiful natural surroundings and access to a reduced cost of living allowing more disposable income and time to enjoy life.
