Working on branding for a med spa!! Started in my usual place, with moodboards to transition the purpose and feeling of the brand into visuals. This is what we settled on! . . . The goal was to find balance between relaxation and the confidence that comes from inner and outer beauty. Another big part was avoiding a bright/sterile medical environment, while also refraining from going too dark, like a more traditional spa (think dark curtains and mini waterfalls..) Love love lovingggg this color palette 🤩 Excited to move onto the next phase of this project: logo concepts!! Let the sketching begin, ready to explore lots of line work ✏️ . . . If you want to chat branding, shoot me a DM! I offer two packages to get you clear on your vision and help you stand out in your industry 💫💫
Wish I were still sippin brews and brainstorming business ideas with my girl @taylor_bond23 💖💖
A few icons I created for my website! I made these ones to illustrate my branding process (they’re out of order in the first two images, oops). So much fun to make 💖💖 Swipe to see some details ➡️
TGIF 💖💖💫💫
It’s been a dream of mine for ~literally~ as long as I can remember to have my own business. For the past couple months I’ve been figuring out what exactly that looks like and what I want to focus on. If you know me, (or have seen my Instagram feed) you know I’m obsessed with art, design and everything in between. . . . I started out 2019 ready to make money as an artist and designer however possible. I wanted to do everything and I was alllll over the place. During those first few months, I said yes to every single opportunity that came my way. I changed my mind about what I wanted to do weekly. It was hard to take myself seriously as a business when I had no vision, direction or consistency. I learned the hard way how your brand and audience suffers when you try to be everything to everyone! . . . Luckily, @heyfrankiesimmons helped me realized THIS is what I should be doing 😍🥰 Big ideas like branding and content strategy can be super intimidating at first: it’s a lot of pressure to come up with the perfect solution. BUT what really swayed me: visual problem solving is FUN and it’s what I love to do!! Seeing your idea through from brainstorming to design is the best part of being a designer. It’s the common thread through all of those wonderful creative things I enjoy doing. I seriously can’t wait to share all of the amazing and beautiful things I’ve been working on and learning. . . . Here are my new brand guidelines- which I am OBSESSED with!! If you want to hear more about this journey, have had a similar experience or you’d like to chat about branding, message me! Would be happy to share all the thoughts 💖
This week’s #goodtypetuesday is to share your side project! I have about a million side projects that I’ve attempted to start but this one is by far my favorite 🥰 It’s inspired so many fun ideas: stickers, magnets tie dye shirts, prints AND more to come! So far I’ve finished 3/50 states. I got a bit stalled because I lost my southwest sketches 😭 BUT I’m still hoping to share Utah, New Mexico and Nevada this month! After southwest will be New England 🥳, non-new England East Coast places (idk if there is a name for this region?) and the Midwest (which is very large by my definition). Hopefully those will get me to the end of 2019! If you have ideas for Utah share below 😊
