Call for designers: Lexicon Community logo (paid commission, apply by July 15)

Lexicon Community
1

Lexicon Community is commissioning a logo. This is a paid engagement, sponsored by the AT Community Fund. It follows the discussion in this forum thread.

What we’re looking for

A logo for lexicon.community that works as the project’s visual identity across platforms: GitHub and Bluesky avatars, favicon, and similar small-format uses. The website already has an identity we like, so this is not a rebrand. We need a mark that reads well at small sizes and represents the project on social platforms.

Optionally, you may also quote for a Bluesky banner / social cover image. This is a nice-to-have. The logo is what we’re really after.

We’re looking for designers with brand or logo design experience.

Timeline

  • Applications open: Wednesday, July 8, 2026

  • Applications close: Wednesday, July 15, 2026 at 11:59 PM EDT (Thursday, July 16 at 6:00 AM CEST)

  • Selection starts Thursday, July 16. The decision will be made by the project lead, a co-lead (if one is found by then), and the Lexicon Community steering committee.

How to apply

Post your application as a comment on this GitHub issue or as a reply on the forum thread. Include:

  1. A portfolio, ideally showing logo or brand identity work

  2. A quote for the logo, including feedback rounds and final polish

  3. Optionally, a separate quote for a social banner

  4. Your availability and how long the work would take

  5. Confirmation you can deliver final files as vector source plus SVG/PNG exports suitable for avatars and favicons

Applications are public, but if you prefer not to share pricing publicly, apply publicly and send your quote by DM to @there-hugo.dev on Bluesky.

Process notes

  • This is not a design contest. No spec work. We select one designer based on portfolio, quote, and availability, and that designer is paid to do the work.

  • Usage rights: the final logo will be used freely by the Lexicon Community project; exact licensing terms will be agreed with the selected designer.

  • Applications are centralized on the GitHub issue: lexicon-community/lexicon #79

Questions welcome in the comments.

Thanks!

Hi!

I’m the designer who applied on Bluesky as @sophiaartistic10.bsky.social, and I’d like to formally submit my application here as well.

I’m interested in designing the logo for Lexicon Community. From the brief, it sounds like the goal is to create a mark that fits naturally with the existing identity while staying clear and recognizable at small sizes for GitHub, Bluesky, favicons, and similar uses. That’s the direction I’d take.

Quote (Logo): $300 - $400 USD

This includes:

  • Research and concept development

  • 2–3 initial logo concepts

  • Up to 4 revision rounds

  • Final refinements

  • Delivery of vector source files (AI/SVG/EPS) along with SVG and PNG exports optimized for avatars, favicons.
