Public Library Client Branding
Fellow designer, Locke Troth and I were asked to redesign the logo for the Galion Public Library in Galion, Ohio. Working as a team, Locke and I created sketches based on our research. We would have conversations about what aspects of the design to focus on, at times dividing tasks between ourselves of certain ideas to work on. After this, we would come back with what we had and combine the best of our ideas into a complete draft. In some drafts, we played with a book or leaf shape to relate to the library as a source of knowledge. Ultimately, our final comp uses the “G” for Galion as the main visual while also utilizing a bookmark shape to tie it back to the library. The sans-serif typeface also aids the design in being contemporary and approachable.
