Belong in Bartlett is the new brand campaign recently launched by a5 Branding & Digital in Bartlett, IL. Designed to help build a community identity and promote economic development, the campaign will roll out gradually over the next few years through community events, social media, advertising, PR and more. It’s designed to be targeted to each audience—inside (the community) and outside (economic development and visitors) with the ability to use any of these three: I Belong in Bartlett, We Belong in Bartlett and You Belong in Bartlett.

For 30 years, Bauer Latoza Studio built a reputation for historic preservation and architecture for existing buildings. Ten years ago, Eddie Torrez and Andrea Terry became owners and principals, while the firm name remained the same. Now called Arda (for architecture, restoration, design), the firm has redoubled its focus on preservation. The new brand is fresh and bold, and the new a5-developed website presents the firm’s work—ranging from Pullman National Historical Park to the Muddy Waters MOJO Museum to University of Illinois Chicago—in a clear, elegant, easy-to-understand format.
