Our style is simple, modern, and fresh, communicating that Teach For America is innovative, progressive, and streamlined. We emphasize whites and light-colored woods over anything dark and heavy; strong, energizing, and bold colors based on our organizational palette; simple lines and finishes over anything ornate or detailed; large applications of our brand elements; modern typography; and economical use of space. Our style is smart and professional, and decidely no-frills so as to communicate fiscal responsibility.
We achieve our style largely through our core brand elements, but also through architectural design and elements such as carpets, chairs, tables, lighting, and finishes. Offices that are in the process of moving, building out their space, or are in the process of making decisions on these types of substantial office décor items, should contact Matt Gould (matt.gould@teachforamerica.org) who will assist you in selecting the best options for your space to ensure consistency in our office branding and to leverage the financial discounts we have negotiated with vendors.
