From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Landor Associates is a San Francisco-based brand and creative design consultancy. Founded by Walter Landor in 1941, Landor pioneered many of the research, design and consulting methodologies that are now standard in the branding industry.
Landor's work spans the full breadth of branding services, including but not limited to: brand research and valuation, brand positioning and architecture, naming and nomenclature systems, corporate identity and consumer packaging design, branded environments, writing and digital branding.
