Branding Design Boards for clients and my own business, CosmiCoast Studios.
1. Common Sense Insurance Agency & Consulting, LLC
Description: Comprehensive brand identity system and business card layout created for a client. The project involved developing a squared-off motif with a partially enclosed box enclosing the [CS] acronym, balancing readability and trust, along with full typography pairings and color system specifications.
2. CosmiCoast Studios Branding Board
Description: Comprehensive brand identity, logomark variations, and asset guide for my own independent entertainment and illustration studio. Features official color palettes, typography styling, professional business card designs, and convention sales booth banner art incorporating original character illustration and merchandise branding.
3. Roux & Brew Seafood and Steakhouse
Description: Complete brand identity and collateral package designed for Roux & Brew, featuring day/night logo variations, custom gift card designs, outdoor billboard layouts, to-go packaging, and print-ready multi-page menu spreads. This project won a top design award in a competitive showcase and serves as a fully realized commercial venue identity system.
Leaving the box partially open around the CS is an interesting way to signal trust without the usual shield cliché. Did you test how that opening holds up at favicon or embroidery scale, where small gaps tend to fill in?

Aryna, that golden symbol pops so nicely against the plum background ✨
Not every client comes to me for a brand identity and not all my clients are skincare or cosmetic brands.
That was the case with Hoppr, a protein powder brand made from crickets. 🦗 YES, CRICKETS!
Sometimes the logo, colors, and visual system are already there and my job is to bring them to life on packaging and see how far I can push them.
I love projects like this because I get to play with typography, layout, and materials while working within an existing identity.
How much freedom do you think a designer should have when working with an established brand?
Great packaging work, nice job
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 1: Seart Visuals apparel & merchandise branding (1 year ago)
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.
That's really great typography logo design❤️❤️
