BMF unveils new look
As from February the BMF will have a new refreshed corporate logo and Identity. Introduced to coincide with the BMF’s move to new offices in Coventry the new Identify represents an evolutionary change and retains the brand heritage of the BMF which has a history stretching back over 100 years.
The use of the additional
red was deliberately chosen
as a bold colour to reflect
the organisation’s new
dynamism, inclusivity and
spread of influence.
