THE
CLIENT

The Black Leadership Kitchen Cabinet (BLKC) of Silicon Valley is a volunteer lead organization. BLKC is composed of community-based organizations, agencies, businesses, sororities, fraternities, social groups, and individual community members who all work collaboratively to support, sustain, and improve, the lives of the African/African Ancestry population within Santa Clara County. The essence of this organization is to bring equity to the community through different opportunities.

THE
OPPORTUNITY

The Black Leadership Kitchen Cabinets desired a fresh new look that connected them with their community. When exploring the website, it was clear they had an outdated design and content strategy which did not reflect who these leaders are in this generation of young professionals within the Black community.

THE
SOLUTION

We created a new logo for the BLKC website which has an African cultural flavor to it. The website was also created based on the client’s preference to include African symbolism and elements. We explored different African patterns and symbols that can go well with the website while also maintaining a fun, professional aesthetic of the website.
