A New Era for ENA
In a pivotal move to capture the essence of the Emergency Nurses Association (ENA) for its next chapter, Rule29 designed an updated logo to breathe new life into the organization. The result is a visually compelling emblem that strategically places the "N" for Nurses within the negative space, symbolizing ENA's core mission and purpose in a way that resonates with clarity and impact.

Committed to Care
Rule29 helped create the ENA Foundation logo which stands out from the main ENA brand through distinct color application on the logomark. It shares a structural arrangement and lock-up similar to the main ENA logo. The "Foundation" logotype is seamlessly placed beneath the primary logomark, extending across the entire "E-N-A." The tagline lockup follows the same design, featuring a separating line with the tagline positioned to the right. This cohesive approach ensures a unified and visually appealing representation of the ENA Foundation alongside the main brand.
Focusing In On What Matters
Through the research, interviews, and surveys, the new ENA brand was created. We developed a strong logo, where the “N” for Nurses found within the negative space conceptually draws attention to why ENA even exists. This was then extended throughout brand materials.
