The story behind the logo, by Jared Omae

In this blog, Mukuru resident and designer of the AIR Network logo Jared Omae talks us through his design:

“The green colour represents the environment and nature of our community. The yellow colour represents the nature of our slums – this means that everything in Mukuru has been polluted – starting from the air, water, drainage and natural resources, these are yellow.

At the bottom are the industries that pollute the environment and the air we breathe, and a charcoal stove that pollutes the air inside the houses as people prepare food.”
