Sci High
Encouraging STEM exploration for all students
Services: Visual Identity, Print Materials, and Print Templates
Founded in 1993, The New Orleans Charter for Science & Mathematics, known as Sci High, has a history of excellence in New Orleans not only as a leader in STEM education but also in education access and equity. As part of a larger repositioning, Southpaw Creative was brought in to build a new identity system for both the school and the foundation that supports it, honing in on the creative and vibrant spirit of the school and its students for inspiration.
Creating a Logo
The school has long used the chambered nautilus as a mascot, as the animal's shell is a perfect logarithmic spiral, which epitomizes a mathematical rationality in nature.

Building the Identity
The identity comes to life by way of a vibrant color palette and a series of textural imagery focused on science and math.
