Design a Logo and branding for a not-for-profit, therapy Worker Cooperative social enterprise

2025-09-18

Logo design, Branding of a design or visual language that we can use to create our website

Compensation: gratis / minimal expenses

Hello and thank you for reading,

We are a south east London-based start up trying to get a website up and running as the next step in developing our project.

Our goal is to make therapy space more accessible to local therapists and in turn make therapy and better mental health support more accessible to minoritised local communities in the south-east London area.

I am writing in the hope that you might be interested in supporting our project which needs logo and branding support. We are not particularly proficient with tech and design jargon but we try our best!

We have a range of ideas that we can forward that should help a lot to shape the logo design and the design language that we can use. However there is nothing we are ‘married to’ – we are very open to people’s creativity regarding our design and very grateful for any input offered.

Our project is yet to draw any start-up money or make any income, and the work of developing is only done on a voluntary basis. We are made up of 2 people, one of whom is risking financial hardship. Because of this we are trying where ever possible to keep our costs low via the generosity and support of fellow service cooperatives and social enterprises.

We have tried to raise funds but are now waylaid by a recruitment push due to the loss of one member following bereavements.

We'd like a children's book for TUF!

2025-08-28

Want to make a children’s book?

The TUF project (a Linux Foundation project under the Cloud Native Computing Foundation) is used to secure a huge swatch of cloud systems, programming languages (Python, Rust), cars, the legal code in Washington DC, Baltimore, etc. Helping us here will help a critical part of the software infrastructure we all rely on.

One comment we’ve heard is that the concepts behind TUF are hard to learn. We really need something to make it easy to understand the system so that we don’t scare off people. We’d be happy to help you to understand TUF so you can make something fun and educational.

There is a history of making children’s books in the CNCF, using the project mascots. (For example, https://www.amazon.com/Phippys-AI-Friend-Workshop-Parents/dp/B0CWYF8JT6 ) Tai the TUF elephant is our mascot: https://www.cncf.io/phippy/ However, using Tai (and the rest of the Phippy and Friends characters) is not a requirement.

Design our new project logo

2025-08-23

Muchrooms is a new(ish) project, it is a Jabber/XMPP group chat implementation in Rust. It focuses on testing, moderation and privacy. I recently got a grant from NLnet to work on it.

The design work would consist in creating a logo (vectorised) for the project to use.

I am not much of a design person and I’m not sure what directions to set, feel free to ask more questions and propose ideas yourself.

Jabber/XMPP is a standard communication protocol. It features at its core federation and extensibility. It would be nice for this to be reflected in the work.

I have in mind either various islands of mushrooms linked together somehow. Or, some variant of the XMPP logo overrun by mycelium.

I don’t want the logo to look too realistic visually (as in, close to a photograph).

Even though I do have a grand for working on the project, I regret not to have factored this in, and this is the little I can spare with nonexistent salary otherwise.
