Building a visual identity for a community-driven arts centre
Project Details
Context The Heart of Riverdale is a community arts centre in Whitehorse offering programs across dance, music, theatre, and creative learning for children, teens, and young adults.
Challenge Define a visual identity from the ground up that balances community warmth with youthful creative energy, while remaining clear and adaptable across multiple touchpoints.
Approach The direction focused on translating the centre’s role — gathering, learning, and creative expression — into a flexible visual system. A balance of expressive and structured elements ensures the identity resonates across audiences while remaining consistent across applications.
