Brand Design Print Design Non Profit
Henry has always encouraged designers to take on pro bono work. Not only is it important to give charities the boost in visibility that good design can give, but for designers to expose themselves to different clients and design challenges.
Hong Kong Girl Guides
Based on the Girl Scouts’ trefoil shape, incorporating Chinese character “gwong” (光), meaning beacon, in the negative areas. When in color the symbol appears predominantly in magenta, the color of the bauhinia, Hong Kong’s official flower.
Yale Club of Hong Kong
With over 600 alumni in its Hong Kong chapter, a localized identity seemed fitting. This word mark consists of actual strokes taken from models of classic calligraphy combined with straight lines in Yale blue, projecting a cross-cultural image of unity. In coming up with the new identity, it helped that the designer was also a member.
Project Mingde
Project Mingde is a social building project to improve rural schooling while engaging civil engineering students, founded by Professor Nicolas S Y Yeung and his late wife Lorene. The mark is built around a unique articulation of the Kai Shu script “Ming” 明 character which stems from HKU’s motto “Mingde Gewu” 明德格物.
Helping Hand
After years of operation, the non-profit that had been doing so much for the community deserved its own logo. The design stems from the name and the charity’s mission of providing assistance to Hong Kong’s senior citizens. An open palm with a heart in its centre — a fine symbol for an organization that gives care. Bilingual to reach its target audience.
Lii-Haybyrne Institute
for Asian Studies
The Lii-Haybyrne Institute for Asian Studies was founded to promote cross-cultural understanding to participating Jesuit high schools through immersive study abroad programmes. The mark highlights the institute’s mission “Ite”, meaning “go” in Latin. The flame evokes St. Ignatius of Loyola’s words “go forth and set the world on fire”. A striking mark, befitting of the institute’s mission.
Human Rights Press Awards
Created for the Human Rights Awards’ 20th anniversary, the award reflects the organisation’s mission to honour journalistic work about jailed dissidents. The curved part of a lock, known as a “shackle”, is an outline of a face – reporters have a “nose” for news.
