Building the Bauhaus of biotechnology.

Grove was the bauhaus of the synbio movement—a digital community space that fostered new ways of thinking of and designing with biology. The Grove discord was a place to recruit developers, set the standard, get feedback, and shape the culture of cell programming.

I designed a brand that is playful, avant-garde, and lo-fi, reminiscent of a maker's space. The visual language nods to early Apple and The Staatliches Bauhaus while maintaining a grounded and casual nature. Members are inspired to explore their curiosities and get to building new technologies with their community members.
