Brand identity for @sodas2123 (Pradedančiųjų Kuratorių Platforma)

Pradedančiųjų Kuratorių Platforma (PKP) is a space where emerging curators can develop their skills, share knowledge, and build a professional network. This post defines the platform’s brand elements and provides some insight on the visual identity.

Happy for the opportunity to be apart of this project!

In 2016, I took home a dog named Isis.

She was a pit bull being given away on the street by a guy who said he’d been breeding her at his grandmother’s house and needed to get rid of her now that she’d had puppies. I had no idea how to raise a dog. I was broke, pretty aimless, and living in a three-bedroom apartment with four roommates.

She was depressed because her puppies had been taken away too early, and she was terrified of other dogs, presumably because she’d been abused. On top of all that, she was named Isis, a sworn enemy of the United States.

Before adopting her, I’d never really had to take care of anyone but myself. I was in my 20s, single, and probably pretty selfish. She was the first living thing I’d ever been responsible for, and having her changed my life. We grew up together in a way, and we had a really great life.

For the last ten years, every time id arrive home, no matter how shitty a mood I was in, she’d lift her head and look at me with pure joy. It was such a simple thing, but it made me happier every single time. I’m going to miss that more than I can explain.

One of the best things about dogs is how much they seem to enjoy being alive. They get so much happiness out of the smallest things, and they share that happiness with you. And when you see that joy start to disappear, it’s heartbreaking. I guess that’s why those commercials are so sad.

In March of this year, Icey was diagnosed with a neuromuscular disorder that almost killed her. She spent a long time in the animal hospital, and when I brought her back for a follow-up appointment, some of the staff started crying when they saw how much better she was doing. They’d all worked so hard to save her, and it was incredibly moving to see how much they cared about her.

At one point, I asked her neurologist, “Medically speaking, I’d like you to be brutally honest, she is the best dog, right?”

“She really is the best dog”

yesterday we spent our last day together. I made her a steak and we went to the park. I honestly don’t want to her to go, but I know it’s her time.

She was the best dog

Not the way I wanted to leave but Tokyo is special 🇯🇵✨
Amazing memories & a Halloween to remember🎃👻🌃

⁨ هر بار که باردار می‌شم، بیشتر از قبل به قدرت و شگفتی بدن یک زن پی می‌برم. بدنی که در عرض چند ماه این‌همه تغییر می‌کنه تا خونه‌ی امنی برای رشد یک زندگی جدید باشه.

واقعاً بدن ما زن‌ها یکی از زیباترین معجزه‌های طبیعته. 🤍⁩

💬 Comment ROADMAP below and I’ll send you my free guide to help you find the right exercises for your level.

After 50, what should come first: walking or strength training?

Walking is brilliant for your heart, joints and overall health. But as we get older, maintaining muscle strength becomes increasingly important.

Strong muscles help you get out of chairs, climb stairs, carry your shopping and stay independent for longer.

If you only have time for one, I’d prioritise strength training.

Here are 3 simple exercises to get started:

1. Sit to Stand: Build leg strength for everyday movements.
2. Wall Push-Ups: Strengthen your upper body for everyday pushing movements.

3. Farmer’s Carry: Improve grip and full-body strength for carrying everyday items.

Of course, the best routine includes both walking and strength training. They each offer different benefits.
