Nebraska Humane Society "Books and Barks" Logo
When not busy working at his real job, Christian still occasionally makes time for side projects. This project was a pro-bono logo design for the Nebraska Humane Society’s literacy program Books and Barks.
The Nebraska Humane Society started a literacy program for children with reading difficulties to practice their reading skills by reading aloud to dogs. Similar programs have been successful throughout the country as children hesitant to read to peers are more comfortable reading to a dog, as the dog never judges the child’s reading ability. Christian was tasked with creating a logo that not only visually illustrated what the program was all about and integrated with the Nebraska Humane Society identity system, but also one that was gender and race neutral. Christian feels that he not only accomplished these goals, but created one of his most simple and clean designs to date.
