Brandspirations – let’s not get distracted. Brand inspirations – let’s not get distracted.
The studio is buzzing this week as we work on a website design for a Virtual Assistant agency who are based in the West Midlands, a new brand for a London based charity and continue to work on ethical packaging with CarGo Seat.

1. Top 50 Not-for-profit logos
Wondering who has time to look at 50 of anything? Gladly this week I was able to delve into this article which lists 50 of the best logos for non-profit organisations and charities. Whilst the article doesn’t go into much depth about what makes them good, there are great inspirations.

CoWorker, WWF use negative space very well. Whilst American Diabetes Assc., Conservational International, Design Museum Boston, National Museum Australia, Oxfam and Red are also personal favourites for their simple typographic led approach.
