Branding 100 Years of Heritage for a Technology Leader.

Curtiss-Wright Defence Solutions, a renowned name in the defence industry, required a comprehensive branding toolkit and guidelines to ensure consistency, clarity, and impact in their communication. Our team took on the challenge to create a robust and flexible branding framework that encapsulates the company ethos, values and vision.

Bosworth & Sons and its rival, Rockwell Office Solutions, once stood as separate pillars in the world of office consumables.

Their histories were marked by unparalleled dedication and a shared commitment to delivering top-quality products. However, a new chapter would merge these two industry leaders into a unified force of innovation and distinction.

Challenge.

Curtiss-Wright, a stalwart in the defense industry with a legacy spanning over a century, faced a pressing challenge – their branding had become a relic of the past. Outdated materials, inundated with excessive technical jargon, failed to resonate with a modern audience. The brand lacked a customer-centric approach, hindering its communication across various media channels. The task at hand was clear: to rejuvenate Curtiss-Wright’s identity, distilling it into a powerful, easily recognizable persona tailored for the contemporary landscape.

Solution.

In tackling the intricate challenge presented by Curtiss-Wright, our approach was rooted in simplicity and strength. We initiated a comprehensive rebranding strategy that involved a meticulous examination of the existing brand elements. Stripping away the excess copy and technical jargon, we focused on creating a streamlined and customer-centric narrative.

The design process began with crafting a visual identity that could seamlessly transcend the boundaries of print, digital, and physical environments. A careful balance was struck between maintaining the company’s historical significance and infusing a modern appeal. Our team conceptualized a brand persona that spoke not just to industry insiders but resonated with a broader audience.

The new branding materials were designed with clarity and adaptability in mind, ensuring a consistent and cohesive representation across all media. The visual elements were thoughtfully curated to convey strength, reliability, and innovation – key attributes essential for a company deeply entrenched in the defense sector.
