Perceptions strives to foster a positive image for the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual &amp; Transgender community and our allies. Our Board of Trustees and organizers are volunteers from the local community. All of our operating funds come from donations, fundraisers and membership dues.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>My intention for this new logo was to give the group something that was simple but relevant. I tried to provide something that could work today, tomorrow, and for many years to come. \u00a0I gave a nod to the name of the group by making the visual a stylized letter &#8220;P&#8221; which I also believe aids in branding for the group. \u00a0It is a simple yet effective way to link the logo back to the group name. \u00a0Being an LGBT group, the client wanted to keep a rainbow-inspired color scheme so I made sure that the colors were vibrant and alive. \u00a0The client also expressed an interest in movement so I interpreted that idea with the orientation and size of the semicircles.<\/p>\n<p>For further information about Perceptions please visit their website at:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.perceptionsmi.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.perceptionsmi.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Or, visit them on Facebook at:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PerceptionsSV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PerceptionsSV<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a commissioned logo for the group Perceptions of Saginaw Valley. \u00a0The following is taken from their website: &#8220;Perceptions is a 501(c)(3) non-profit community organization that offers educational, social and networking opportunities for residents of the Tri-Cities (Midland, Bay City and Saginaw) and surrounding areas.
