In response to a local design challenge – to develop a logo for the Sea Change arts festival – Cove Park Art&Design Club arranged a Masterclass with graphic designer Maeve Redmond. Maeve began by introducing the concept of what makes a good logo, and the group discussed a number of popular and iconic logos, looking at variations in design and branding. The young people then discussed their brief: a theme of ‘coastline’, using two colours on a white background and strong, clear lines, and made a number of initial sketches. Maeve helped them to develop their ideas in a range of different techniques, and the final designs were eventually screen printed onto paper and tote bags, with the winning design to be chosen for use by the festival.
