Briefing

With Shawanaga Island designated as an IPCA under Shawanaga First Nation care, they needed a logo and website to convey the cultural and ecological significance of the island’s habitats and promote balanced stewardship.

Approach

We combined traditional and practical approaches, using Turtle Island’s creation story and clan animals in the logo, while the website offers travel info, campsite booking, and research updates for Shawanaga Island.
