The power of design

(UPDATE: 6/26/15: #marriageequality victory!)

(Initial post on my symbol from 2013 blog: It's often a designer's ultimate goal, to boil down the essence of communication into one visual message. 
Inspired by the Supreme Court hearings on same sex marriage, I wanted to expound on the red-equal symbol that has been floating through social media. Below is my contribution – the equality symbol stacked to symbolize a ladder, creating an exclamation point. Regardless of your personal beliefs, we should all be in agreement of the great power and right that we have as citizens of the United States to express our thoughts and ideas.Also, by creating this post, I want to highlight  the important job that designers hold –  creating symbols that can become interwoven into the fabric of our visual language.)
