Gia, the client, envisioned an evergreen logo that’s genuine, cheeky, and worldly while remaining sophisticated and approachable.
We explored a couple of directions depicting ruins of Ancient Greek columns but ended up going with a more out-of-the-box, perhaps even obscure concept.
The icon features a detailed, chipped ancient statue of a female, with cracks that mimic stone. It’s accompanied by a ladder referring to the Brand’s tagline to strengthen the meaning and a levitating shadow to add depth.
The hand-drawn, slightly uneven font was created to balance legibility and personability. The vintage color scheme dominated by a greenish-yellow and a reddish-brown adds to the design’s distinguishability and memorability while communicating luxury & heritage.")

The idea behind the design is “a city girl living the country life”. We started out with concepts involving classic depictions of bull/bronc riding but landed on a simpler design based on a legible & clear but impactful hand drawn Western font. The refined Logo is mature & masculine, with a vintage twist authentic to the country lifestyle accompanied by a bivariate color scheme.")

The client wanted a flexible brand identity that would stand out on the shelf which we achieved with an esoteric approach, celestial green hue & playful “witchy” details – ravens, moons & clocks.
The design was awarded in 2021 by 99designs in the category of Best Branding Design.")

It features six scents: Agadir, Azrou, Fes, Meknes, Taza & Valley of Roses, and the corresponding designs abstractly showcase different aspects of the region – architecture, henna art and ceramics – trough intricate handcrafted geometric patterns.
I enjoyed working on the project as the client had a clear vision of what they did & didn’t want & pitched great ideas throughout the process.")
