The Cooked series helps readers understand how to reduce their impact on climate change & take actionable steps so they can make a real difference

These are some visual explorations and early iterations of the Cooked logotype.

We want the visual language of the newsletter series to feel playful and approachable. The goal is to make the climate crisis feel less overwhelming by shifting the focus from complexity to practical at-home solutions.

 

The final design direction blends a lo-fi, layered aesthetic with simple, bold, colors and graphic elements. It combines a DIY spirit with a sense of fun, creating a look that feels accessible, optimistic, and easy to engage with.
