The project is led through a collaboration between Flanner House, Rokh R&D Studio, and KT Austin Arts LLC. This initiative launched in early 2024 and consists of two part process including, 1) community archiving with community residents to maintain family artifacts, and 2) collaboratively designing heritage/legacy markers for public installation.
Isidor Studio worked with the project team to develop an overall brand that evokes a bold and colorful tone, while maintaining design standards for content accessibility. For the logo, the six rays represent the six neighborhoods of focus in the project, culminating into a symbol that communicates connectivity, hope, and expansion. Beyond the logo development, Isidor Studio designed a project website, social media templates, a letterhead, and workbook template. Our team is continuing to support graphic developments for the project as it continues into 2025.
