North Carolina Serious Illness Coalition Brand Launch
North Carolina Serious Illness Coalition
The North Carolina Serious Illness Coalition was created out of the statewide task force that set a demanding, action-oriented agenda for leaders in healthcare services and needed an identity.
The identity needed to avoid the hazard created when the organization named itself (NC SIC) and so the mark and usage needed to encourage the adoption of NC Serious Illness Coalition’s work.
Calm colors and a serious, energetic typographic approach gave the coalition opportunities to bring thought leadership forward while acknowledging the urgency of their work.
AWARD RECOGNITIONS
Through the use of bright blues and bold spaces, the Coalition’s brand immediately spoke the community’s focus on accessibility as well as expertise for digital and print initiatives.
The brand identity of the coalition was versatile enough to deploy across initiatives like their popular annual webinar series, which AGI also made as part of their brand approach strategic support for the organization.

What is brand identity development?
Brand identity development is the process of figuring out how a brand looks and feels based on its values, mission and personality.
It involves stakeholder input—community members, staff, and leaders—and includes visual elements like the logo, color palette, typography, imagery, and overall style. Together, these pieces make the brand look consistent and easy to recognize everywhere it’s used.
How does brand identity design differ from brand strategy?
Brand identity design is the visual and creative expression of a broader brand strategy: it’s establishing how your brand looks. While brand strategy defines what your brand’s values, target audience, and market position are, brand identity design translates those elements into a visual language using elements like logos, color schemes, and typography.
