The Chain Reaction Project

The Chain Reaction Project (TCRP) is a non-profit organisation launched in 2009, when four women committed to help change lives in some of the world’s least-developed nations.

“TCRP’s mission is to find a cause, and have an effect and from there, grow their initiative by inspiring others to be catalysts for change as well.”

The identity was created in 2012 by Singapore-based Bravo Company, a design studio founded by Edwin Tan and Janice Teo.

The work’s a great example of how a simple-looking symbol can form part of a much stronger visual identity, and why there’s a lot more value in logos when viewed as part of the bigger picture. The symbol’s based on the Chinese character Rén, meaning “people.”

Bravo created a series of icons with the symbol for their client’s various causes.

The namecard creates its own chain reaction. You can pass it on to three other people.

LSDM,

This is a great example of how a seemingly simple idea has very deep roots. I really love the concept and it’s various applications. Really great stuff. Thanks for posting this.

Lo,

I love the origin of the project and that it’s included in this post. A lot of artists don’t show their process.

Great stuff. Bravo! (Unfunny pun intended.)
