Downstream recently wrapped the initial phase of their brand master plan with the  Washington State University Cougars. The facility is a practice space for both men’s and women’s basketball. Updates included 16 large branded graphics of student players, as well as a large inscription of the Cougar fight song around the top of the court. Doorways were treated with the cougar’s colors and logo, bringing a cohesive feel to the space. Plans for the rest of the brand initiatives are underway.
