The commemorative logo for the 60th anniversary of the Faculty of Education at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) encapsulates six decades of educational leadership, innovation, and scholarly achievement. This thoughtfully crafted design weaves together multiple symbolic elements to represent the Faculty's enduring legacy and forward-looking vision.
Central to the design is an innovative visual interplay where an exclamation mark creates the negative space forming the numerals "60." This dynamic element symbolises the Faculty's profound and lasting impact on education, both locally and globally. Within the exclamation mark, a distinctive star emblem represents the illumination of minds and the spark of discovery that characterises the Faculty's approach to education. This stellar element symbolises the Faculty's commitment to nurturing insight, fostering innovation, and inspiring excellence in both professional practice and academic research.
The design features a carefully positioned silhouette of a graduate adorned with the traditional square academic cap, representing the countless learners who have emerged from the Faculty's nurturing environment. The graduate's outward-facing stance symbolises our alumni's readiness to engage with the world and their commitment to making meaningful contributions to society and the field of education.
The logo's colour palette has been deliberately chosen to create visual harmony while conveying deeper meaning. The refined light purple hue establishes a visual connection with the Faculty's existing corporate identity, ensuring consistency and recognition. Complementing this is a warm golden tone, which not only adds visual richness but also represents the prestige of the institution and the precious nature of education itself.
This anniversary logo stands as a testament to the Faculty of Education's six decades of excellence in nurturing educators, researchers, and leaders who continue to shape the future of education. It reflects our proud heritage while embodying our commitment to advancing educational knowledge and practice in the decades to come.
