The Project

I designed a new logo for the Community Cooperative Nursery School (CCNS), a parent-run preschool focused on nature, outdoor play, and early education for 2- to 4-year-olds. The goal was to create a visual identity that feels playful and nature-centered, appeals to both kids and parents, and works well across everything from signs to merch.

What I did

  • Interpreted the school’s values of play, nature, and cooperation into custom letterforms
  • Crafted playful, clear shapes so the logo reads well for both young families and adults
  • Chose a vibrant, nature-forward palette that’s adaptable across environments
  • Designed the logo to be flexible for signage, apparel, digital, and printed materials

Why it made a difference

CCNS had operated for over 20 years without a logo. The school now has a shared identity that parents, staff, families, and alumni can recognize and rally around.
