My friend and Best-of-Nashville podcaster Olivia commissioned me to design a logo for Flatrock<\/a>, a new podcast under construction that will retell and examine the story of Kathy Jones, a young Nashville girl who was horribly raped and murdered decades ago while on her way to go roller skating at the Hippodrome near Nolensville and Thompson. <\/p>\n

Olivia didn’t want the logo to be too cheeky, given the severity of the show’s content. And the final logo needed to lend itself to T-shirts and stickers and other merch that will help fund her research and production costs. So I knew it needed to be simple and clean. And I knew I really wanted to integrate the skates somehow, as the imagery of a little girl’s boot skates left behind in a field is really haunting and a distinct piece of the story.<\/p>\n

I came up with several variations (For logos I either have one idea or, like, thirty; I rarely ever have just three or four) and Olivia picked the one up top. I like it because you can lay it on top of color, no color, or even photographs and it can be played large without feeling overbearing. <\/p>\n

Here’s a look at all the variations I played with:<\/p>\n

I’m pleased with the final version Olivia chose, and I can’t wait to hear the episodes when they come out! Be sure to follow Flatrock for updates<\/a>!<\/p>\n
