MoFo Summer Associate Program 2026

Is it really summer again?

This was a balancing act between a more relaxed, playful interpretation of the brand and sub-branding infrastructure that will help frame out campaigns to come.

As they told me at the kickoff meeting: “Summer should be fun.”

The layers of branding:

  1. Morrison Foerster
  2. “MoFo,” the more colloquial mark to be used with care
  3. The tagline for this year’s program: Building What’s Next
  4. New for 2026: A standard, descriptive Summer Associate Program tagline

I put the “evergreen” icon and lockup together — and sold it to stakeholders — as a way to keep a direct mooring to the brand, no matter how fun and brand-bending the visuals get.

Marquee deliverables for this event are the location badges; frequently stickers and extrapolated to other location-specific aspects of the program communications.
