The children’s ministry of a large suburban church wanted to activate its new spaces with environmental graphics. While the architecture and interior elements were already established, kid-friendly visuals were required to create consistency and tie everything together. The solution is a dynamic system of icons that works with the preexisting branding and can be combined in various ways to create pattern, illustration, letterforms, directional signage and more.
Entry Hallway Welcome Sign
I created a set of over 400 unique icons that celebrate creation and creativity, from the natural world to science & discovery to the arts to sports & games and more.
400+ Icon System and Color Palette
The icons are utilized throughout the space via vinyl appliqué to encourage discovery and movement.

As they have become identified with the program, the icons have proven a natural way to brand other collateral materials, including postcards sent to students and posters & handouts outlining the mission.
