Stellar Project Non-Profit Logo

I’m ready to commission a new logo for my nonprofit charity, “The Stellar Project.” The concept is clear in my mind: a dignified Tree of Life should take center stage, its branches supporting heart-shaped hands at the core. I’m drawn to a classic look rather than something ultra-modern or sketchy, and I want the artwork to live in cool blues, greens, and purples that convey calm hopefulness.

Visual priorities
• The Tree of Life must be the dominant form, with the heart-shaped hands nested neatly in the main branching area.
• Composition should feel timeless and balanced—think classic serif or clean sans-serif lettering that pairs well with the emblem but doesn’t steal the spotlight.
• Cool-tone palette only; please avoid warm or strictly neutral schemes except in subtle accents or monochrome alternatives.

Deliverables
1. Scalable vector file (AI/SVG) plus PNG/JPEG exports in full color, solid black, and reversed-white versions.
2. A brief style guide outlining colors (HEX/RGB/CMYK) and recommended fonts.
3. One square avatar version that will read well at small sizes on social media.

Acceptance criteria
• Tree silhouette is immediately recognizable with harmonious negative space around the heart-shaped hands.
• Colors stay within the blue-green-purple family and maintain accessibility contrast on both light and dark backgrounds.
• Artwork prints cleanly down to 1-inch width without losing key details.

If you’re confident working in Illustrator, CorelDRAW, or equivalent vector tools and can stay faithful to this classic, cool-toned vision, I’d love to see your approach and timeline.
