The Grove Church

Description: Logo Design for a church in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The brief called for a redesign of their old identity as there was new leadership who wanted to create momentum toward a new vision for the future. The target audience is a bit upscale in a community that values bike trails, farmers markets, and organic foods, but also is strongly tied to several large corporations whose headquarters are in town. The name The Grove Church was originally chosen to suggest a community who share the same source of water and support each other through deep, connected root systems. Their style is relational, casual, passionate, and Bible-based. This concept combines ideas of community, eternity, and growth into an iconic symbol. Notice the subtle cross hidden in the negative space.

I think you arrived at a very pleasant, effective, and thoughtful design solution with a clever subtlety that adds another dimension to the mark without taking it too far. Very nice work. Your client should be proud.

Thanks atomicvibe! Great to see you getting involved here! Great, positive comments!

Yeah, I'm really hyperfocused on my work these days. I've always loved doing logos, but I've realized that this is one area of graphic design I really want to push hard. My time spent here on LP has been tremendously influential to that end.
