Dry Bones

Shards of white bone come to new life in a provocative non-profit identity for unhoused teenagers

Dry Bones is a long-standing community of support among Denver’s unhoused teens and young adults. They have the simple but radical belief that companionship itself can be profoundly transformative. Along with helping to meet emotional, spiritual, and physical needs, their real work is building ongoing relationships that remind the invisible among us of their immeasurable worth.

We created an edgy yet sophisticated visual identity that breathes new life into their provocative name. Inspired by Gustave Doré's gothic etching depicting God bringing dead bones back to life, we created a custom wordmark that literally grows from a smattering of typographic shards.
