The TU Dresden logo consists of a symbol and lettering. It always appears as a whole and must not be separated or modified. The logo can be used in the corporate colour of TU Dresden as well as in white and black in communication media.

The following basic rules apply to time-limited projects, especially in co-operation with external TUD partners (e.g. at conferences and meetings):

• Incorporating the TU Dresden logo in TU Dresden websites

Enquiries for the development of additional pictograms can be directed by email to the CD customer advice service: cd@tu-dresden.de.

Detailed information about the design possibilities of the web pages can be found on the web pages Downloads and Materials. Questions about WebCMS can be sent by email directly to the Web support at webcms@tu-dresden.de

External and internal support requests on these topics can be requested by email from the Media Centre: film.mz@tu-dresden.de and fotografie.mz@tu-dresden.de.

In the area of photography and film, there are many different formats. Short guidelines on the topics of video production and photography have been prepared to facilitate the briefing and production process for members of TUD and external service providers. In 2016 a TUD-specific guideline for the special format of explanatory films was developed. This is where the most important aspects such as graphic style, animation and language are defined in order to ensure a uniform visual language despite the multitude of different themes.

The building management system is part of TU Dresden’s corporate design and includes signage on campus and in buildings of TU Dresden, site plans and the campus navigator as a digital signage system. An accessible guidance and orientation system (BLO) is being implemented at TU Dresden.  

There are currently no comprehensive CD guides available for the design of TUD outdoor spaces, buildings or exhibition stands. However, there are several work groups at TUD, where employees of different Directorates, Staff Units and Chairs deal with these aspects. As a rule, contact persons who deal with the topic provide up-to-date information.

Members of TU Dresden:
Enquiries and information on signage can be sent by email to the BLO project managers in Directorate 4. Requests for the design of further permanent signage and displays in TU Dresden buildings can be sent by email to the CD customer advice service at: cd@tu-dresden.de.

External design service providers and partners:
You will receive the guidelines and templates from the contact persons in the building design section of Directorate 4.

For projects involving partners of the DRESDEN-concept network in addition to TU Dresden, it must be ensured that the DRESDEN-concept logo and corresponding partner logos are integrated into the means of communication.

Further information on DRESDEN-concept incl. download materials is available on the DRESDEN-concept homepage.

Requests can be sent by email to Sonja Piotrowski.

Auszug aus dem Protokoll der Universitätsleitungssitzung 5.96 vom 04.04.2006
(auf neue Ansprechpartner und Organisationsbezeichnungen aktualisiert 01/2018)

Zur Nutzung von Zweitlogos durch Struktureinheiten der TU Dresden beschließt das Rektoratskollegium, dass:

• Zweitlogos grundsätzlich nur nach den Grundsätzen des Corporate Design der TUD verwendet werden dürfen (das Logo ist unterhalb des Briefkopfes im Bearbeitervermerk anzuordnen). 
• die Anwender bei der Erstellung, Beurteilung und Anwendung von Logos ausdrücklich aufgefordert sind, die Beratungsmöglichkeit des Dezernat 7 (Herr Christoph Schletterer / Corporate Design, HA 34227) in Anspruch zu nehmen.
• sämtliche Zweitlogos im Sinne dieses Beschlusses sind in Dezernat 7 - Strategie und Kommunikation zu erfassen und zu registrieren.

Bei der Gestaltung der Zweitlogos sind grafische Ähnlichkeiten zu Elementen des TUD-Logos nicht zulässig. Das bedeutet, dass das TUD-Logo (und Teile daraus) nicht für die Gestaltung von Zweitlogos verwendet werden dürfen.

Hinweise zur Gestaltung von Zweitlogos sind auf dieser Seite (Link für externe Dienstleister) und dieser Seite (interner Link für TU-Mitarbeiter) zusammengestellt.

In den Gestaltungsvorgaben des Corporate Design ist festgelegt, wie die Zweitlogos (Logos der einzelnen Einrichtungen der TUD) im Gesamterscheinungsbild angeordnet werden. Ausführliche Angaben sind im CD-Handbuch (interner Link oder über die CD-Nutzerberatung cd@tu-dresden.de zu erfragen) der TUD definiert.
