Retooling an American institution is no easy task — just ask Bogdan Geana, partner at Lippincott.

To top it off, the updated look had to appeal to all 300-plus network affiliates across the nation. No sweat, right? We go behind the scenes and dig into the heavy lifting that went into this iconic Change of Brand.
