EQUINIMITY 505
2020Visual identity for a non-profit horse rescue that provides exceptional care and facilities beyond what most horse rescues can offer.
EQUINE + EQUANIMITY + (505) = EQUINIMITY 505
Located in the 505 of New Mexico, the non-profit envisions itself as an option for horse owners who can no longer manage the ethical care of their horse(s), and offers a temporary or permanent solution. The intent of the new visual identity is to capture the spirit and calmness reflected in the name “equinimity,” a play on the words “equine” and “equanimity.”

The Logo
As the formal name “Equinmity 505” can be a mouthful, those who know it have adopted the nickname “EQ505.” The horse head and neck within the logo are longer and lower than a horse holding their head taut, a sign that the horse is relaxed and calm, just as they would be at Equinimity 505.
