Logo Redesign Rooted in Local Identity and Modern Versatility

The Greater Nanaimo Chamber of Commerce needed a refreshed visual identity—one that could modernize its presence while honouring its deep local roots. The goal was to create a flexible logo that could scale across digital and print applications, promotional materials, signage, and merchandise without losing clarity or character.

Honouring the Past with a Modern Lens

At the heart of the new mark is one of Nanaimo’s most recognizable landmarks: The Bastion, a historic wooden fort that’s become a symbol of the city. Rather than rely on overly literal representation, the structure was subtly embedded into the letterforms.

The result is a bold, geometric logo that remains clean and functional, yet unmistakably tied to place. It brings together tradition and modernity in a way that feels fresh and grounded.
