Indivisible49 is a non-partisan, grassroots political group in California’s 49th Congressional District that promotes the advancement of progressive policies. They are a group of like-minded individuals from different walks of life, different ethnicities, different religions, and different philosophies, dedicated to local organizing and action, peaceful, non-violent resistance, and committed to the democratic process. I’ve been volunteering with them for the past 4 years. When they reached out asking me to design a new logo and look that was approachable and relatable I immediately thought, Pacific Ocean! Indivisible49 is also a champion for protecting our district’s miles of coastline. An element of a wave was very important to them. I explored many iterations of wave icons but landed on a simple graphic swoosh as a nod to the wave so the focus is more on the name of the organization. This palette of green and blue represent the hues of the Pacific Ocean but is more vibrant to evoke optimism and express democracy.

The assets I provided are:
logo design & brand style guide

The Urban Toddler is a preschool with a structured curriculum geared towards children ages 2-5. Set in a nurturing environment with an array of activities including yoga, gardening, music and art. This setting has lots of natural rich dark wood in the interior and a lush, spacious backyard. This client wanted to include a symbol of a bird that is very personal to them. I chose to mimic the roof of this school/home to give it an inviting , comfortable feel as well as a sweet spot for the bird icon to live. The rich chocolate brown and the sky blue palette felt like a natural organic choice since there is so many rich brown tones throughout. The simple design of the stationary nods to children’s building blocks.
