Canton of Zurich brand guidelines
The Canton of Zurich publishes its corporate design guidance within its official cantonal portal, covering logo structures, flags, and official designations.
Freedam's take — I like seeing public sector identities treated with structure and care. The Canton of Zurich houses its corporate design standards right within its official cantonal administrative web portal. The page outlines their three-part logo system alongside sections on the flag and official designations, keeping everything tied to direct civic communication. Rather than building a separate flashy brand portal, they integrate these rules into standard administrative pages with clear feedback prompts and direct contacts at the State Chancellery. It feels practical, grounded, and focused on public clarity.
