Planetary Society Rebrand

Goal: Bring a philosophical and meditative approach to space exploration

Planetary Society is a non-profit organization focused on advocacy for space exploration and based in Pasadena, California. Bill Nye is currently their CEO.


Special thanks to: Andrew Pauly of The Planetary Society, Stephen Serrato, Carolina Uscategui, and Jack McEntee.

Though the Planetary Society focused on space enthusiasts in general, I wanted to expand that a bit. By exploring the profound human experience of our relationship to the massive scale of the cosmos.

I also created a special brand style for the Society’s 45th anniversary including a custom modular and variable typeface inspired by planetary orbits. For the 45th anniversary I envisioned a weekend celebration event on Catalina Island.
