LOGO DESIGN FOR 'LANATIR' :AN ENVIRONMENTAL NGO

Image
Having been asked to do the Logo design for an NGO, I decided to to takle this task as if I am really creating my own NGO.Since I am someone who is extremely in love with the nature and the fact that climate change and other human-related activities are depleting Mother Nature, I came up with the idea of creating an environmental NGO that would help in combatting the scourges that our Nature is facing.

Expressive Lettering

Having to do Expessive lettering with 3 words of my choice, I decided to express myself in 3 different ways by conducting the works in the following ways: I decided to work on the word 'PIZZA' by giving the whole illustration the form of a slice of Pizza and also by replacing the letter 'P' with a slice of Pizza, I then made use monochromatic colours to work on the word 'SPOON' alongside replacing the letter 'P' by a drawing of a spoon and lastly I used the word 'OVERLAP' rendering it with different colours so that when the colours overlap they would create new colours but still portraying the action of overlapping.
