The Branding Journey

In a bid to expand our reach and uphold our commitment to diversity, OLS embarked on a journey to expand its brand identity. From this, emerged a new logo and name for the mentoring program - Open Seeds. If you’re interested in the story behind these changes, read all about our rebranding adventure in this insightful blog post. It takes you through the decision-making process, creative inspiration, and the vision that led to our new identity.

Brand Assets

Previously, we used a logo originally designed by Lucas Emanoell Medeiros e Silva, and adapted by the team. Now, various versions of the new logos, all carefully crafted to reflect the values and spirit of our community, can be found in the branding GitHub repository. While there, you will also find visual elements such as stickers, icons, social media assets, letterheads, flyers, etc.
