Formerly Latitude, Panoco is a global community bringing responsible tourism changemakers together to connect, collaborate and create industry change. We reimagined the brand identity around its new name, creating a distinctive logo and flexible logo suite while retaining the positioning and ethos behind the original brand.
Latitude Tourism was evolving into Panoco, with a new name and identity needed to reflect that change without losing the positioning and ethos already established.
The challenge was to create a distinctive new identity that captured Panoco as a human-centred community for responsible tourism, built around connection, collaboration and collective action.
We explored a series of logo concepts around the central idea of people coming together, translating themes of connection, gathering, momentum and positive impact into simple, ownable forms.
The chosen direction uses geometric forms to create a meeting point, representing individuals coming together, exchanging ideas and creating wider collective impact. From this, we developed a flexible logo suite designed to work consistently across different formats and applications.
A new identity that marks the transition from Latitude Tourism to Panoco while retaining the purpose at the heart of the organisation.
The final logo gives Panoco a distinctive and flexible visual presence, with a system that reflects the community, connection and collective action the brand exists to enable.
