BRAND MANIFESTO
It is the brand’s job to make us care, to inspire us,
to challenge us, and to ensure our audience
remembers who we are. Enter the brand
manifesto, a clear and public declaration of
purpose and intent.
For decades, the world has known Cape Canaveral as a launch pad.
Where one giant leap for mankind began and the place where
aerospace and technology were born. Space is as intrinsic to who
we are as the warm coastal breezes and waterways that surround
our small, but mighty, city.
In the space between innovation and relaxation… a unique business
community first emerged through aerospace and technology. Today it
expands with tech companies, eclectic indie retail and restaurants,
outdoor recreation, and the second largest port in the country. Business
thrives in the space between forward thinking and laid back, where small
community stands for economic opportunity and you still have a front row
seat on launch day.
In the space between sunrises and sunsets… you’ll find waterfront
“forever homes”, condos, and affordable apartments woven together by
bike paths, forming a casual coastal community that welcomes the
young and young at heart to start. An A-rated elementary school anchors
our families. Community events connect us. And we celebrate our
differences while we evolve together.
In the space between river and sea… you'll find peace
where manatees graze, dolphins frolic, and sea turtles
hatch. Golden sunrises and sunsets meet an endless blue
sky. In this space, you’ll never have to look far to find the
beauty in nature.
In the space between high heels and flip flops… fun is found
everywhere, and escaping is easy. Take a stroll along the sun-
kissed beach at lunch. Meet new friends at the local brewery.
Leave the hectic pace of life behind, instantly.
Space is who we are.
And in the space between sun and sea – you’ll find that
Cape Canaveral is a still a launch pad: a launch pad for
business, pleasure, and everything in between.
TAGLINE
A slogan or phrase succinctly conveys the most
important attribute or benefit of our community—
usually also serving as a springboard for other
facets of the greater marketing campaign.
the space between
sun and sea
Our mission was specific:
Observe and sustain the use of the City of
Cape canaveral’s seal.
Our solution:
Develop a tagline approach for the brand
platform that celebrates this seal and its
statement but evolves to support application
in diverse forms to communicate the myriad
of experiences and promises that define
Cape Canaveral.

CIUTADELLA
CIUTADELLA
CIUTADELLA
Selected for its clean lines and subtle tech forward nuances, Ciutadella is
the core brand platform font.
Emotional qualities of the brand platform will be expressed through hand-
lettering which requires a more controlled font pairing for balance. Hand-
lettering has been introduced within the brand platform because it is
quintessentially personal, unique, never “perfect” like fonts, and supports
the casual coastal vibe of Cape Canaveral.
COLORS
Colors are an undeniable ingredient in visually
defining a brand, and it is crucial they align
with and support your message consistently.
1505 305 BLACK CORE COLOR PALETTE
219 7549 360 7502 285 TERTIARY COLOR PALETTE
The brand project parameters dictate the seal remain untouched, as
a steadfast symbol of Cape Canaveral. The core color palette takes
its cues from the color palette involved within the seal. A tertiary
color palette has been developed to further activate the personality
and promise of Cape Canaveral.
BRAND ACTIVATION
How we will introduce the brand to our
community and beyond.
BRAND ACTIVATION INITIATIVE
We believe the best use of a brand activation initiative is in reaching out to the
citizens and businesses who have a stake in Cape Canaveral and asking them
to provide their favorite photos of Cape Canaveral through the filters of living,
working, and playing. This creates a more permanent, lasting effect, builds
community pride through unique participation, and also speaks to the Cape’s
personality and promise, as a launch pad for life.
BRAND VIDEO
The brand video will be developed from the brand manifesto text. The goal
of this video is to unite the brand’s visual and communication platforms
with music, motion graphics, and resident generated content - in this
case, photos - to yield a fresh communication resource that will formally
present Cape Canaveral’s recalibrated brand and promise.
