826 Bangor
Brand Design
826 Bangor is a fictional chapter of 826 National that features a tutoring center and storefront based on the city. Bangor, Maine. I created a branding system focused on bubbles and circular geometry. The final product is a cohesive system that works across mediums for the 826 Bangor storefront, Pop Up Shop, and the 826 tutoring center.

Process
Maine boasts an interesting history and eccentric population. I chose to draw inspiration from former Bangor resident and chewing gum inventor, John B. Curtis. The overarching theme is based around the talented and creative people of Bangor finding the joy in everyday, small town life and creating something extraordinary. Bub bles follow this theme because they are found in everyday items, like soap or soda, but they are undoubtedly fun and exciting.
My process consisted of techniques that explored bubbles, math, and type in fun and exciting ways. I wanted to create a brand that was both fun and educational to make sure it fit for the tutoring center.
