Design a logo for the Slow Rolling Home and win 15 SBD!
This is the future home of my partner Alhen and I. The Slow Rolling Home is a 1989 Blue Bird 40-foot long school bus, formally a church transportation vehicle and now in the construction phase of future mobile home!
We've worked on the Slow Rolling Home for almost nine months and still have a bit more construction to go. Once our bus is finished, we'll have it certified as an RV(Recreational Vehicle) and will begin traveling USA, Canada, and beyond, in search of natural beauty and hidden gems along the way.
About the Slow Rolling Home Journey
Our Journey: As far north as Canada, as far south as we can go, hopefully Patagonia!
Helmed by two nature-lovers who are also crypto-enthusiasts, coffee-fiends, photographer/writer/makers, and adventurous souls! Also housing two rowdy cats and two lovable rescue dogs.
100% Off-Grid means solar panels, water storage and filtration, low-energy impact appliances, heated by woodstove, nearly zero waste, and capable of parking in the woods away from society for at least a week (until we need more water).
Working from our computers means tons of time for Steemit blogging and no need to be tied to one city.
Constantly asked where folks can find our progress and travel photos so we need a proper logo for our business card!
Our Style
Check out the above post to see our interior design style and get a feel for how a logo might illustrate our vibe. We're into:
Crisp lines, minimal color with a preference for muted natural tones
Hand-drawn look that conveys our fun and laid-back (collective) character
Natural influence that showcases our love of the earth
Functional design so we can travel unhampered
Gender-neutral look so my boyfriend doesn't feel like this bus design thing is all about me 😂
Here are a few design favorites I've picked for inspiration:
Artwork by Kim Becker
Illustrations by Anneka Tran
Concept by Viktorija Minkstimaite
