The City of Union City, CA
2016
Differentiate Union City in a crowded Silicon Valley marketplace to attract the new types of businesses they want to relocate there.
Conduct identity workshops with key community leaders to create a new brand identity and logo for Union City, designing a style guide that covers most regular collateral formats for marketing and communication efforts, such as an activity guide, business cards, billboards, and pamphlets.
Zooka created a fresh logo and brand identity system to help Union City stand out from the crowd of Bay Area communities.
The new logo represents Union City’s growing opportunity for innovation, as well as its diverse culture, by utilizing a dynamic facet approach. Woven bands of bold color overlap one another to create a unified “U” shape while the negative space shows the connectivity of the City’s key pillars: innovation, unity, small town feel, open space, and accessibility to the Silicon Valley.

The color choices are inspired by the five pillars that make Union City unique. From the deep, united blue and locational teal, to the innovative purple and the growing green, these colors are representative of the diverse culture found within the city and are accessible to all.
The team took home a Gold MarCom award for Branding, rewarding the amazing work of our talented creators and designers.
