Retail Bank Branches Reimagined
Huntington Bank, a leading Midwestern bank holding company, was seeking to strengthen its identity among consumers. The centerpiece of this effort was to reimage and remodel their retail bank branches, making them feel more welcoming to customers. With that goal in mind, Huntington hired WD Partners to develop a series of branded elements to cost-effectively unify all Huntington branch locations.
