Was going through old files and stumbled on this one. Made it about 2 years ago for a client. They needed a hiring post for LinkedIn.

I shared two options. One was clean, corporate, safe. This one I did differently on purpose. A chalkboard. Pencil jar. A little plant. Felt more like someone actually wrote these openings up.

Didn't get picked. They went with the safer option, which I get. Corporate page, hiring post, you don't always want to take the risk.

But the client said something I still remember. Looked at this and said "this is something." It was genuinely. Like they could tell I wasn't just filling a template.

That's exactly why I made it.

Every time I sit down to work on something, even a simple post, I try to push it somewhere unexpected.

Sometimes the work that doesn't get picked reminds you why you do this.

A brand exploration.

The idea was to build a visual system around agriculture without relying only on literal imagery.

Generative patterns inspired by wind, weather, and field formations form the core identity. Vibrant colors bring energy, while dithering textures add a slightly organic feel.

Photography can still carry the human side of farming, while the abstract patterns create a flexible system.
