Our team refreshed KinderCare's logo with basic shapes that were found in their iconic bell tower. From there, we developed an illustration system based on these five shapes, marker pen strokes, and confident colors.
We created a library of illustrations and key visuals using our newly developed system to be used for KinderCare's brand guidelines, printed materials, and outdoor installations for various education centers across the country.
