BRANDING
Village of Savoy (IL)
The Village of Savoy is a suburban municipality in Champaign County, Illinois, and its location right next to Champaign often leaves it overlooked. This project set out to give the town a strong, distinct identity of its own.
The logo draws on what makes Savoy special: its walking paths, biking paths, and creeks. These flowing lines form the letter S, giving the mark a double meaning. A forward tilt and a gradient add motion, reflecting a town that is always on the move.
Beyond the logo, we designed a set of brand touchpoints the village can roll out to bring the identity to life across the community.

Molecule Maker Lab Foundation
Project Details:
Molecule Maker Lab empowers students, citizens, and scientists to solve complex scientific challenges through small molecule synthesis, also know as “blocc chemistry”. Molecule Maker Lab was in need of a brand for their Foundation, where they fundraise to support these life changing projects.
At the center of the identity is the parallelogram, the building block of “blocc chemistry”. Woven throughout the system, it links the Foundation back to the science it supports. The result is a brand that feels elegant, elevated, and powerful, designed to invite donors to look closer and discover the layers of science within.
