• Prospect Park Morning Disc
    Logo design for pickup Ultimate Frisbee group in Brooklyn
  • I've been playing in this early morning ultimate frisbee game in Brooklyn's Prospect Park since it's inception in 1997. Initially it was a winter-only (daylight savings) game, to offset the early sunset and inability to play after work. Starting a few years ago we began playing all year rounds, and on Fridays as well, and now we play Tuesdays through Fridays. There are at least 60-80 regulars who come out to play and it is quite a great little community.

    The idea for the design was that the frisbee is a danish, since we play so early. The foliage in the background is meant to look like the trees near where we play. The sun is also a clock that reads 7AM.
