HOW WE HELPED
Gave them their first REAL color palette. We drew inspo from the interior design of the shop—plants galore, natural wood, terracotta pots, and the iconic dark green wall. We also added peach for a lovely pop or color!
Created two custom brand patterns. I used the leaf icon for one of them, which they can use for social, web, and even print backgrounds to add visual interest.
Designed social media graphics and mocked them up to show how they can apply their new branding to insta.
Created lots of elements, icons, and submarks to give them options, while remaining cohesive.
