Project details

What we need
  • Consultation regarding the Organization's current branding and desired branding objectives
  • Visual branding guidelines / style guide that include specific colors, fonts, and other graphic design elements to use in print and digital communications materials
  • High-resolution logo delivered electronically (in formats for digital and print use)
Additional details

We are looking to create a logo for our new project called GLADUR, which will be green (carbon neutral) accessory dwelling unit (ADU) designs. GLADUR is an acronym for "Green and Livable Accessory Dwelling Unit Resource". We are currently open to different ideas about what the logo will look like, as long as it has GLADUR in it and shows it is about being green (being connected to small homes/ADUs would be nice as well).

What we have in place
  • We are putting together a mood board and getting design preferences from the 2 key stakeholders on the project. So far, we are open to different ideas, so feel free to offer a variety of options. This project can become really big and you will forever be the one that is associated/can claim design ownership of the logo.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,817 , allowing us to focus our resources and funds on helping develop affordable housing.

This is our latest initiative aiming to increase affordable housing, and is very important as it will save people tens of thousands of dollars in building their own ADU, as well as being great for the environment because everyone one of our designs will be carbon neutral. A logo is very important to a project as it is the first thing that people will see and we want it to be something they remember and will want to share.
