✦ The goal ✦
Creative. Confident. Reliable. Polished.
After more than 20 years of designing for clients, I wanted my own brand to feel as confident and polished as the work I do. It needed to stay true to my Bakersfield roots and work everywhere: website, social media, print and signage.
✦ What I did ✦
- Designed a seal logo with the year I founded the studio, est. 2010
- Created a poppy mark inspired by the California poppy that grows wild in Kern County
- Built a palette of purple, raspberry, plum and orchid, paired with Fraunces and DM Sans
- Carried it everywhere: this website, my email signature, social templates, business cards and stickers
