exploring wordmark animation - which one works best with the symbol?
tough choice, but i really find myself drawn to 4 & 7–– they may feel a bit opposite, with 4 being a bit more intense, but i think both feel friendly, sleek, & natural alongside generally being engaging. also a big fan of 6, the wipe effect goes so nicely with the font selected.

A warm dark palette with cool blue type keeps the tone serious without tipping into heavy.

The Aphrology mark started with the Venus de Milo.
I progressively stripped away detail, keeping only the curves necessary to suggest Aphrodite while simultaneously constructing the letter A, the initial of the brand.
The final symbol lives between recognition and abstraction.

Lovely work Lorenzo! 🚀
