Sheridan Singers
Branding
The Sheridan Singers is an a cappella choir located in Chicago’s North Shore. The group had been using a DIY logo for years and was in need of a refresh that would better represent their standing as a high-quality choral ensemble.
The new logo creates an S shape with two semi-circles symbolizing the “choral arc” (the shape a choir stands in when performing).
The musical note motif in the center of the logo symbolizes the group singing in 4-part harmony.
The thick/thin curves of the letter “S” were inspired by the gentle curves of Sheridan Road, a well-known thoroughfare in the North Shore area.
The music note element is embraced by the shapes of the letter “S” to create a feeling of camaraderie and togetherness.
The font is tall and elegant with subtle styling that mimics the shape of the letter S in the symbol.
The color scheme was inspired by Lake Michigan - an integral part of the scenery in Chicago’s North Shore.
