      <pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 15:26:31 GMT</pubDate>
      <description>Stupid Studio created a new visual identity for the Federer Foundation, an organization that has spent more than 20 years improving early and foundational learning for children across Southern Africa and Switzerland. The project aimed to express the depth and credibility of the foundation’s systems-focused work while remaining warm, open, and close to the children and communities it serves. Stupid Studio also helped shift the foundation’s emphasis from a founder-led image to one centered on partners, communities, and collective impact. The identity is built around the circle, referencing play, movement, connection, and the sport that inspired the foundation’s origins. This became a modular visual system of geometric curves and bold intersections that can move between abstract textures and figurative illustration across digital, print, and reporting contexts. <br/><br/>View on D1S1 Design Spotlight: <a href="https://d1s1.com/archive/2026/06/08">https://d1s1.com/archive/2026/06/08</a></description>
