Kagi Doggo Open Call

Kagi is a user-oriented search engine that focuses on providing information that is centered around the needs of individuals, providing accessibility and ethical information gathering. Founded in 2018 and launched in 2022, their ethos - “humanize the web”.

During the tail-end of February 2025, Kagi ran an open call, inspired by their community members suggestions to provide an opportunity in creating an individual version of their doggo mascot. The chosen designs would then be picked to be featured on their home search page for a limited time during march.

I have taken this opportunity to create several versions of the mascot, leaning back into my love for doodles when it comes to idea generation. In the end one of my designs got shortlisted out of all the participants and got featured on the official webpage.
