GP SW Washington logo
Brandi Thu 6 Aug 2026 11:59PMPublicSeen by 6It was mentioned in the GPWA logo thread that we may want at some point to redesign the placeholder logo designed by @Alli. We don't have to align on this now but I do want to capture a thought before I lose it!
I like the idea of frog for our SW WA logo. As locals and others may know, frog inflatables originated at Portland ICE facility protests. I think our Pacific Chorus Frog would be a great candidate for logo iconography. I believe it captures the spirit of resistance while also reflecting harmony with nature, peace, and a bit of the unique character/quirkiness of our area.
I had also previously suggested a camas flower which is native to our region. Camas flowers are unique enough that they should be recognizable to locals.

@Alli thanks for rendering these concepts! Without getting into the design critique weeds, I will say that my iconography preference is for the frog. Once we narrow our iconography down, I’m happy to give more detailed design feedback regarding stroke weight and design complexity, scale, texture, etc.
Thanks again for tackling this for us!

I’ll also throw in here that I would be willing to render a few icons by hand and digitize once we narrow down our options.

Hi everyone! I took a stab at designing a few things with these suggestions from @Brandi for new logo for SWWA which reflects our region and feels more like GPWA branding. Of course, nothing is final. These are ideas and open to feedback & more ideas! The last two designs do have color incorporated, and that was just for funsies! :) And personally, I like the SW WA lettering with the yellow shadow vs grey shadow, but open to thoughts!
