Life in the Heights - Logo

A logo designed for an organization in memory of Shayna Bracha Borowitz a"h. It's targeting girls int their teens and early 20's with the idea of self growth, networking and developing oneself spiritually. There's a shin and beis in the tree being the initials of her name, see if you can find them :)

Spotlight for Turnstone
