Seafair Logo Development
Graphic Design, Typography
2010
 
  • This was the original logo we redesigned for Seafair. After going through a strategic branding process we developed key messaging, values and these six attributes.
  • The first step in logo design is pick up a pencil. Here is where the key ideas develop and sparks fly.
  • These are the first design concepts presented to the client. Things were off to a good start, but we needed to push it farther.
  • This was the second phase of the designs. Ideas were starting to coalesce but it they were not perfect yet.
  • This is the final logo. It has the right tone and combination of elements we were working for. The mark matched up with the attributes and represented the main aspects of a Seattle summer; sun and water. We also started developing ideas on how to incorporate the logo with the other 9+ logos in the event family matrix.
