Preserving Sudbury’s rich and diverse history can be a tricky task. Stories and pictures are scattered, stored in attic boxes and scrapbooks, shared only when a passing interest arises. The Greater Sudbury Heritage aims to preserve buildings and architecture, and create an online place where people can upload pictures and information about past events.
When we started the project, we thought about why buildings are important to us, beyond simply providing protection from the elements. They’re our homes, they’re our schools, they’re where we get married and where we work. There’s a saying about “…if these wall could speak.” that we felt made a connection between concrete and emotion and this is where our concept springs from.
The simple logo is a section of a wall or detail from a building. Photographs we’ve taken from the Sudbury area of a historically significant place.
