how we got here:
original 1995 polyamory flag
designed by Jim Evans
we wanted to redesign the polyamory pride flag.
it's no secret the original polyamorous pride flag needs an update. we saw too many creators tossing redesigns onto the internet hoping theirs catches on—our founders among them.
we realized it was time for a larger-scale approach.
we didn't want to create another addition to the slush pile of online designs. so, we got in touch with other groups that had done it before us, took lots of notes, and got started.
​
turns out, the way to unite the community behind a single design was to unite the community to choose a design that suits it best.
we realized we could
do something bigger.
our leadership.

I own a cafe, coffee and crepes, and love the enneagram and astrology (I’m Type 5, an Aries Sun, Libra Moon, Virgo Rising) Excited to be helping with PR and thankful to be part of such a passionate group!

​
While still not sure what kinds of queer I am, I have been living polyamory for seven years now and I want to share my happiness by promoting it through educational material and memes.
​
I am always trying or learning new things and web development somehow stuck with me. When Kristian reached out to me, I expected to just put some finished puzzle pieces together and be done with it, but I ended up creating a totally new platform so we can truly be sure that voting here will be fair and secure, without the need to collect user data.
