Designing a Logo

May 22, 2013NewsAll Our Stories, colour, colourways, design, fonts, logo, sheep, style guideCharles

With our graphic designer Charles Dixon-Spain the pupils of Kilmodan have been developing ideas for a logo. Charles used sketches made by the children  to create a quartered design which contains many of the important qualities of the glen – we even managed to include Archie’s sheep! We think the logo tells an important story all by itself. During this session the children also chose their main fonts, “Papyrus” and “Georgia” and discussed the merits of each.

Here’s a picture of one of the colourways the children developed:
