Ethereum Academics
π¨βπ Welcome 'Ethereum Academics', today's logocore design challenge was dedicated to this online school for teaching computer science students how to code solidity for the Ethereum network. The classes will teach everything from project management to developing smart contracts on the blockchain.
Biggest limitation, yet an obvious choice, was to stick to the ethereum color scheme. The request was to steer away from stereotypical images of brains and graduation hats, in order to establish a professional identity that showcases this isn't your everyday beginner-oriented course. Although having (I should add accidentally) added the typical student alumni hat into the icon, I believe this does not take away from the serious yet welcoming appeal of the visual identity.
