The Ecological Intelligence mark: three stepped bands in a teal to green gradient, with a circle above

A mark that reads the land

The bands are two things at once: the E and I of the name, and the layered contours of a topographic map. Raw land data, turned into something you can read.

The circle above the stack is the dot of the I, a sun, and the person interpreting the data. Together they make a landscape being read, understood and acted on.

understand your land

A practical promise, evidence in place of guesswork. And a relationship: to understand is more than to know. Your makes it this field, this habitat, this decision.

The lockup

The primary logo carries the tagline, for the website, stationery and official documents. A stacked version without it holds up better small, and on clothing.

Down to sixteen pixels

At small sizes the form simplifies without losing its meaning. The app icon’s corners are the size of the dot.

Extended mark

Stretched to the horizon

The mark extends to show the scale of the landscape, or crops in tight. Cropped close, the gaps close and the dot goes.

Grounded, not bright

Built on a deep forest green for authority and trust. Mid Green for growth, Teal to bridge nature and technology. Sunrise and Sunset are used sparingly. Select a colour to copy it.

How it should feel

Five deliberate positions from the discovery workshops. Accessible but not casual, serious but not cold, innovative but not trendy.

Think Vanguard meets field science.

Three values, from two workshops

Blended from the brand discovery tool and the team values session, then written as behaviour, not slogans.

  1. 01

    Understanding

    Through curiosity and inquiry

    Explain what the data actually shows, not what people want to hear. Curious before prescriptive.

  2. 02

    Transformation

    Through innovation and productivity

    Connect insight to action. A score without a roadmap is just a number.

  3. 03

    Stewardship

    With craft and care for what endures

    Fewer indicators with high confidence over more with low reliability. Precision over noise.

Let's make a start.
