Branding Design for Planet
Discover the story behind our new logo (that is actually quite an old logo!).
From archive diving to climate conscious colour choices, we've been on a journey to put our best, planet-centred design foot forward.
Join the Design for Planet Collective
Every month these informal get togethers focus on design and the climate emergency. We take a broad definition of design and have three speakers that take 10 minutes each to share their work, lessons learnt, skills and tools.
The Meetups are held at a central London location and we provide a Zoom link for those who can't join us in person.
