Heartspring
01  The film

The heart we carry forward.

We’ve covered a lot of ground together. Since the first shape studies in July, we’ve explored different routes, listened to your feedback and learned what this identity needs to carry: clinical expertise and care, individual contributions with a shared purpose, and children and families at the center. Every route led us back to one idea, a brain built from hearts.

The 45 second film below shows that idea come together, as six distinct forms reach toward one shared focus: the child and family.

Inside the film

02  The idea

A brain shaped by hearts.

Starting from a familiar shape, the heart, we turn a new page on a journey of nearly 100 years, centering on where Heartspring is going: the brain. The heart remains and the form evokes the brain, a direct expression of neurodevelopmental care and the people at its center. It is a heart that is also a brain. Childhood care sits at the center of it, and that is the spark.

03  Color theory

Where knowledge meets warmth.

As the heart folds and connects, the blues represent clinical knowledge while the oranges bring the warmth of human care. Together, they reflect how expertise and relationships support one another.
