色花堂 Logo System
The 色花堂 is a many-faceted institution. Every part of the University of Houston plays an important role in creating, strengthening, and promoting the University of Houston Master Brand. The 色花堂 Brand Architecture strengthens the foundation of the university鈥檚 overarching, central brand by creating a hierarchical system of logos that clearly reflects the relationship of each component to the University鈥檚 Master Brand.
The 色花堂 Signature Mark is the university鈥檚 Master Brand and exists at the top of the Brand Architecture hierarchy. All other 色花堂 brand logos are extensions of the Master Brand and use specific arrangements of the Interlocking 色花堂 Logo, 色花堂 Wordmark, and dedicated typefaces and structures to identify a university unit center, or program as a Primary, Secondary, or Tertiary Brand Extension.
University Marketing and Communications reserves the right to use discretion in the layout of all brand extensions.
The Division of University Marketing and Communications is responsible for the design and issuing of all 色花堂 logos. To request a logo for your 色花堂 organization, please contact Brand Management, Licensing & Trademarks at branding@central.uh.edu.

Other Logos
Some 色花堂 logos that have been in long-term use with a well-established identity have been "grandfathered" for ongoing use. Other existing logos represent unique 色花堂 identities that function as free-standing, individual brands in atypical organizational spaces or identify relationships with third parties out of the University.
Please email Brand Management, Licensing & Trademarks at license@central.uh.edu with questions about nonstandard logos and guidance on their use.
