Logo Design Brief
An innovative, high-quality private kindergarten where children will spend 1/2 of each school day out of doors year round. We're located in a scenic coastal village on an ocean harbor surrounded by small rocky islands. Children will have access to multiple eco systems for study and exploration: coastal, beach, marsh, river, and forest. They will have opportunities to explore sea life, learn to kayak, and discover every aspect of what makes this particular location so special. While we are starting as a kindergarten (ages 5-7), we project potential expansion through grade 3 (up to age 9). All these age groups are considered early childhood education--but this is not a preschool or daycare.
Updates
Project Deadline Extended Reason: We are extending the campaign because, while we have gotten a couple of designs that we really love, feedback we have received from our board of directors requires us to seek some specific types of revisions. We are hopeful that the participating designers can include a clearer sense of our stony, ocean-harbor coastline location which is integral to our place-based nature study. Thanks to all for you responsiveness and willingness to work with us as our vision becomes clearer! Added Wednesday, March 16, 2016
