At a glance
A parents' association needed a logo: simple, cheerful and easy to print.

I love logos, but they've always been hard for me. I've always found them much more difficult than designing websites or brand identities.
I hadn't worked on a logo in a long time, so when the chance came up to design one for a parents' association, I jumped at it.
Visually, nothing too sophisticated: a sun with a smile and a childlike look for the school, but also for the often sunny local surroundings (the Basque Country). The blue refers to the ocean and is also one of the town's colors.
For the typeface, I picked a cheerful yet highly legible one, so every element stays easy to read across print media (hence the black and white version).
