▸ VIDEO | CIRCA | KRON4-TV SAN FRANCISCO • NEXSTAR MEDIA GROUP

The brand identity for KRON-TV in San Francisco is a clean, modern, and community-focused redesign that honors the station’s legacy while reflecting the spirit of the Bay Area. Created by jonberrydesign in collaboration with Nexstar’s Vince Conti and KRON’s Matt Damore, the look builds on KRON’s red, white, and black palette, expanded with soft grays and accents of blue and yellow inspired by local scenery and the station’s visual history. Guided by circular geometry, clean typography, and a Bauhaus-inspired structure, the system uses motion rather than traditional effects to bring energy that resolves into clear, understated compositions that support the news content rather than distract from it. The newscast opens act as a visual love letter to the city, spotlighting landmarks like Sutro Tower and the Golden Gate Bridge. Familiar yet revitalized, the identity helps position KRON for the future as it celebrates 75 years in the Bay Area.

About a year ago, I started working on what may be one of my favorite projects I’ve ever done. It finally went public last week, so I can finally share it with you here: the new brand identity for KRON-TV...

not today

The last few months (and year!) have been pretty busy, so when my friends Elsa and Jeremy asked if I wanted them for a free Disneyland day last week for Jeremy’s birthday, I had to say yes.

Just a quick taste of a couple days in Barcelona. I'll have to try to do a catch up post later, because I'm in Lisbon for Eurovision now and no time to spend on it! Barcelona was a rough spot for me. I suffered through some…
