In 2011, The Class of 2020 was formed with the mission to become the leading student housing platform in Europe. As a non-profit foundation its objective was to broaden the knowledge
about the student housing in Europe. At that time The Class of 2020 was lacking a strong branding and corporate identity to support its ambitious mission.
SOLUTION
Since 2012, we built a strong partnership with The Class of 2020 and developed a sophisticated corporate identity supported by simple and elegant logo design, visual identity and stationary items. We also crafted compelling annual reports and magazines,
giving The Class of 2020 a distinctive look. Throughout the years of the cooperation we supported The Class of 2020 with the creation of B2B materials and visual communication for the annual conference and regional event.

BRANDING
The logo of The Class of 2020 needed to be both classy and elegant, with logo colours and shapes referencing student housing. As the result, we developed a logo in the shape of a graduation cap both in monochrome and playful (conference edition related) versions, ensuring that
it is easily recognisable and stands out on a variety of backgrounds and surfaces. We also prepared a set of extensive branding materials including business cards, letterhead, and envelopes among others, that reflect the brand identity in a sophisticated, non-distracting way

THE CLASS CONFERENCE & ANNUAL REPORTS
From the very beginning we supported The Class of 2020 with the roll out of their annual reports and conference materials such as merchandising and print materials among others. From overall design layout to colour scheme to the smallest typographical details,
we crafted annual reports and magazines that are authentic, informative and visually appealing. Each page consisted of smart graphic design in the form of infographics, diagrams, illustrations and pictures, making the content easy to understand and enjoyable to read.

TESTIMONIALS
“
I have worked with SPX Agency on several design projects for The Class of 2020 Foundation. SPX Agency has worked on the graphic design of many of our publications, most notably our annual magazine. Working with them was always a pleasure as they work hard to deliver the work within the deadlines. The team was always creative and came up with lots of new ideas to improve the product. And most of all they are great people and fun to work with!

Bart and the team of SPX Agency have from the very beginning been involved in shaping the external profile for The Class of 2020. From the initial brand identity, this has later evolved into the design of our annual Trend Report. The contribution of SPX Agency can be described as pragmatic consistent in its quality and instrumental to the brand development of The Class of 2020 as leading think tank on living working & learning in Europe.
