Noridian Mutual Insurance Company

Headquartered in Fargo, North Dakota, Noridian Mutual is a mutual insurance firm offering health, dental, and life insurance options. Noridian’s logo design doesn’t differentiate much from the style of mutual insurance companies across the country. The logo uses its wordmark as the focal point, clearly identifying the company name to potential clients.

The design itself is corporate and professional. The only two colors are black for the lettering, and blue for an arch above the name, adding a small pop of color. The simplicity of this logo design is appropriate for this industry, where you want clients to see you as a professional, trusted partner.


State of North Dakota

In 2018, the state of North Dakota unveiled a new logo design and branding strategy. This logo includes the state name, as well as the state’s tagline “Be Legendary.” The word legendary has been used for the state’s brand strategy for 15 years prior, however, this specific saying was brand new with this design. The prior logo stuck to black, sharp lettering, whereas this one is a friendly font, like the Arial typography. A red-orange color is also introduced in this updated design.

By unveiling a new logo that is conversational in aesthetic, it shows the state’s hope to reach new audiences and attract visitors. State officials are committed to the state’s potential and by updating the logo, with the “Be Legendary” tagline, North Dakota is showing this promise.


Knife River

While Knife River operates in 14 states, its home base is in Bismarck, North Dakota. Knife River delivers construction materials and offers contracting services across western, central, and southern America with the mission of helping to build strong neighborhoods and strong communities.

Knife River’s logo design is a fun play on the brand name. Even with the logo being a simple black-and-white design, the design still stands out boldly. The font is a bold, capital-letter typography that sits alongside an icon. This icon is an abstract river design with sharp, jagged edges, much like a knife would have.

This logo design is appropriate for the industry Knife River serves, and is a logo design that is not only scalable but can also easily be replicated no matter what state Knife River operates in.
