We’re excited to share our official logo redesign for the Mid-Michigan Cooperative Invasive Species Management Area (MMCISMA)!

The final direction is born and inspired from the original design. Essentially turning the fidelity k**b up on what was already there. The county lines form the base grid of the logo and the incorporated iconography speaks to Michigan and the native Michigan habitats the MMCISMA is fighting to protect. The result is a modern and eye-catching logo that will help spread awareness and recognition for their cause.

Shoutout to Mid-Michigan Cooperative Invasive Species Management Area for all that you do to protect our native Michigan landscapes and thank you for choosing Ciesa Design for your creative needs!
