SWAG LOGO
In collaboration with Rico Childs Design, I created a logo and identity system that called back to the Benson Neighborhoods past and present. The vertical shape of the BFF mark calls back to the old signs that used to line the main street, and also acts as a speech bubble because Benson First Friday is both a voice for the arts and the talk of the town. We chose to use the existing typeface and color of the organization to retain the brand equity. We also created an identity system that offers a robust solution for all of the different programs that BFF offers.
