Logo design for Ambassador Classical Academy, a Christian school focused on knowledge, developing children and their leadership, and a mindfulness of representing the Kingdom of Heaven.
A combination of symbolic images—flame, leaf, crown, and cross at the center—came together to form a whole: the torch. In a broad sense, the torch depicts passing it on and lighting the way.
For the word mark, a serif typeface is used with some custom tweaks. An "a" occurs in every word, so I opened up the bottom of the bowls and curled them to mimic the curve in the flame—thus helping unite the symbol to the words.
