We are delighted to announce that we have a new logo, which we unveiled at a recent board meeting. We hope you soon see it everywhere. This is what it means to us:
- Gold, found in the cross and circle, signals value and joy.
- The blue of our name comes from the robes of the Virgin Mary in a Greek mosaic icon.
- The floral decoration of the cross is derived from the robes of some women saints' robes. It suggests a womanly (rather than a girlish) femininity, to soften the angular, rather masculine lines of the cross.
- The circle is taken from the kinds of tone-on-tone halos sometimes used in icons. Here it signals individuals coming together in unity around the cross of Christ.
Final note: If you ever have a reason to design a logo of your own, we highly recommend the amazing BJ Flagg of NuRenu, a brand marketing studio in the heart of Connecticut (nurenu.com).
