About our logo

Our visual identity was re-imagined in 2022, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the LEED Programme.

Our brand conveys the wide range of stakeholders engaged in LEED, bringing together local partners to identify the best solutions for good jobs in great places.

The visual motif employs a people-centred design reflecting the "we are here" pin shape. This illustrates how the local and people dimension of LEED has important impacts on communities.

The colour palette transmits a modern and vibrant energy, showcasing how LEED practitioners innovate, network and succeed.
