Both are beautiful! The elegant version feels more premium and timeless—perfect for a luxury skincare brand targeting sophistication. The modern version is clean and approachable, great if you're going for a younger, minimalist aesthetic. I'd lean elegant for skincare since it suggests quality and heritage.
Modern for me. It’s much clearer and more legible at a glance. The elegant version has character, but readability is key for a skincare brand, especially across packaging and digital.
Elégant : les petits illustrations au niveau de E évoquent les feuilles d'arbres, par conséquent la nature. Qui attire l'attention vers un soin premium dont les produits sont naturels.
It’s been a minute since my last post here on Contra.
While my main focus usually lives in photo editing and digital design, I was digging through the archive recently and thought it’d be fun to share a couple of branding projects from the past:
Slide 2: Choku Ladies Boutique identity and mockups (2 years ago)
Brand identity isn't my everyday lane, but tackling projects like these taught me a lot about visual consistency across different mediums. I’d love to hear your thoughts or see any feedback from fellow designers. Great to connect with the community again.
Been part of this community for a few years now, sharing my work, joining challenges, meeting some great people, and even picking up a few wins along the way.
I've genuinely enjoyed being part of Contra and seeing how much the platform has grown.
This one means a lot. Big thanks to the Contra team for the recognition!
Congrats Alec, a few years of showing up is the part most people skip. Out of the challenges you joined, which one actually brought a paying client afterwards?
