Souris Biomass Energy System logo
Posted by Dean Gallant in logos/identity on September 11th, 2009
Just completed a logo design for a proposed community bio energy plant on Prince Edward Island. The bio-fuel generation project would reduce carbon emissions and energy costs for the community by capturing steam from wood burning & use it to generate heat/power.

The logo incorporates a tree from the PEI flag and references the seaside community with water, seagulls & a lighthouse. The sun symbolizes energy & sustainability. The font is Cochin (appropriate for the French/Acadian community) which is consistent with the look & feel of the Souris Harbour Authority.
Move On Colchester logo

New logo design for “Move On Colchester”. A community-based campaign aimed at advancing the wider use of active transportation in the Colchester region. Of the four options I gave them, they chose my preference and I’m very pleased with the final result.

Some notes from the design pitch:
- Displaying a range of ages & demographics drives the message of broad community inclusiveness.
- Consistent movement from left to right is symbolic of forward momentum or achieving progress.
- Multiple colours of the individuals gives the impression of multiculturalism, while being non-specific.
- Vivid red is suggestive of movement, passion or a zest for life.
