Hufflepuff: Brand overview
Hufflepuff is unique among Hogwarts Houses in that it is based on the principle of inclusivity and fairness. Helga Hufflepuff believed that any young witch or wizard wishing to study should be given the opportunity to do so, which distinguished her views from those of the other founders, particularly Salazar Slytherin, who believed that only pureblood witches and wizards should be allowed into Hogwarts.
The house’s proximity to the kitchens is a convenience for late-night snacking and a reflection of the warm, caring nature of the house. Hufflepuff students are often seen as down-to-earth, both metaphorically and literally, as their common room is in the basement, and the colors of the house symbolize the earth. The symbolic animal, the badger, is known as hardworking and protective, embodying key traits that Helga Hufflepuff values.
It is worth noting that Hufflepuff has a strong and proud tradition in various areas of magical learning and practice. They excel in Herbology (thanks in part to Head of House Professor Pomona Sprout, who is also a professor in the subject), are brave in battle, and are often at the forefront of initiatives to promote justice and equality in the magical community. House Hufflepuff also played an important role in the Battle of Hogwarts, standing with the other houses in defense of the school.
Although Hufflepuffs are not as eager to attract attention as representatives of other houses, their contribution to the magical world is invaluable, and such qualities as loyalty, hard work, and fairness are irreplaceable. Overall, Hufflepuff is a house that embodies the spirit of community and mutual respect, creating an atmosphere where everyone is welcome and valued.

The Hufflepuff emblem is an ornate heraldic shield painted in the faculty’s black and yellow colors. The centerpiece is a badger, the main animal representing Hufflepuff. This creature represents the qualities that students should possess: loyalty, patience, and hard work. Behind the badger is a pattern of dry leaves falling on dark grass. The shield has a wide border with decorative inserts. Due to the gradient, the border seems volumetric, and the designers used color transitions to imitate relief elements.
The choice of the badger as the central figure emphasizes the ethos of Hufflepuff House, embodying values such as resilience and community spirit. The withered leaves and dark grass in the background symbolize the unassuming but grounded virtues that Hufflepuffs hold dear. The three-dimensional frame adds complexity to the emblem, making it visually appealing and reinforcing the idea of depth, both literal and metaphorical.
