Calling all young designers!
Think you can design an awesome logo?
Fancy winning your design on a t-shirt and €50 for your chosen charity?
Great… you’re in the right place! At White Triangle we wanted to spread a little kindness and encourage graphics design skills by opening a competition for kids.
Your brief
Design a logo that represents ‘kindness’
What does kindness mean to you and how can you show that in a logo? It could be a drawing, symbol or even the word itself. Logo design is all about creating a visual mark that people will identify with and remember.
Prizes
The winner of each age category will win a pack of 32 Staedtler felt-tip pens and (in the spirit of kindness) €20 to donate to a charity of their choice.
The overall winner will also get their logo design printed on a t-shirt and a total of €50 for their chosen charity.

LOGO Design tips
To help you get started, here’s a few tips from our creative team…
1. Start by sketching
Rough sketches are a great way to brainstorm ideas and get your creative juices flowing. Don’t worry if your sketches aren’t perfect - a great design isn’t always beautiful at the beginning!
2. Pick an idea
Once you’re done sketching, select your favourite idea and focus on developing this.
3. Keep it simple
The best logos are often the most simple ones. Ask yourself, would my logo be more striking if I took something away?
4. Colour is key
Think about the colours you are using. Do they complement each other and what do they add to your design?
5. Get feedback
Show a parent or friend and ask for their opinion. Two pairs of eyes are always better than one!
And remember…
Note: We may share pictures of your designs on our social media channels.
