A New Look to Celebrate Our Proud Heritage
New Begininngs 2011
Trends may be fleeting, but elegance defies the hands of time. To re-imagine our future, we first looked to honour the most graceful traditions from our past. It’s time to deepen the story of this venerable club.
Our new brand is crafted from the very masonry that makes up 915 West Hastings Street. The VC monogram appears throughout the building and has undergone multiple iterations over 118 years. Each progression reflects the best of the Club from a different era. This year, we add another interpretation of our beloved monogram — one that is sleek, elegant and rich with history. The new brand is as confident in our modern city as it is in our storied heritage.
