Box Hill Needs a New Logo Competition 

 Aim: To update the logo for the Box Hill Metropolitan Activity Centre.

Background:  The current Box Hill Logo was developed in 2008 and it represented the dynamic mixing pot/wok of Box Hill encompassing the railway hub, food, retail, restaurants, cafes and diversity of people with a dose of fun.

It was presented in a number of color options, with and without the words,” East Meets West” to allow for flexibility in application.

In the past 10 years, the Box Hill has experienced unprecedented growth and change, driven by private investment and development. Box Hill is now firmly established as the pre-eminent growth centre for Melbourne’s eastern region – Melbourne’s Second CBD.

To position Box Hill as the home of the largest commercial business hubs and transport interchanges outside Melbourne CBD, the branding for Box Hill needs to move away from the existing “playful” theme and become more corporate.

Box Hill now represents: tourism, transport, health, education, jobs and population growth. 

Logo Application

Logo will be used across a range platforms including (and not limited to):

 Full digital suite

 Banners

 Brochures, Newsletters, Lanyards

 Shop Front Window Decals

 Bin Surrounds

 Flags

 T-Shirts

 Reusable bags

Design considerations

The logo needs to emphasise Box Hill as the place / location, (as does the “Melbourne” Logo) and must be clear and recognisable. Consideration must be given to:

 Name: Box Hill

 Minimal use of imagery or use wording only

 Suitability for a number of publications/digital platforms

 Design to compliment “Whitehorse Discover the Advantage” branding

 Logo design to be available in Colour and Black & White

 Move away from the Asian theme

 No Slogan

The logo competition opens Monday 18 March 2019 and closes 5pm, 29 April 2019.
