Unlock Your Potentials — the idea behind this one.
Gleam is a self-improvement platform built around five areas: confidence, career, connection, dating life, and skill-building. For the brand reveal, I wanted the logo to feel like the unlock moment itself — not just animate on screen, but land like something switching on.
Gold-on-dark palette, SFX-driven reveal, timed so the gleam and the sound hit together. Small details like that are what separate a logo animation from a real brand moment.

When building a fashion brand identity, most designers start with the logo.
We usually do too. It feels like the natural anchor point.
But when we worked on Evolur, we started with the touchpoint that gets touched last the packaging.
Because for a fashion label, the unboxing moment is the brand. The first impression doesn't happen on Instagram. It happens when someone pulls a ribbon-wrapped box out of a delivery bag.
So we built the identity outward from there. The wordmark came from asking what needed to look right on a swing tag at 2cm and on a tote bag at full size simultaneously. The crimson and blush palette came from asking what felt confident on kraft shipping boxes without needing a campaign photo around it.
This is what fashion branding looks like when every detail is treated like the hero shot.
What we noticed was that designing for physical touchpoints first made every digital decision easier. The hierarchy was already solved. The personality was already clear.
"Fresh styles. Timeless confidence." The brand found its own tagline by the end.
Does this feel like a brand worth wearing? 👇
Amazing branding
Some brands get moodboarded.
This one got excavated.
Pampa case study is live — a data brand where the logic of a 2,000-year-old desert marking and the vein structure of a butterfly wing turned out to be the same idea wearing two different ages.
The strongest part is that you found one underlying logic that reads across a 2,000-year-old marking and a butterfly wing, so the mark feels discovered rather than styled. That is the line between a moodboard and a system: the concept still holds when you change the medium.
An early taste of Senses, a skincare identity built around the shift from overstimulation to comfort. The system pairs a fluid wordmark with clinical typography and an olive-glass form designed to feel precise, tactile, and quietly luxurious.
For this Hydration Serum study, I placed the same object between two sensory extremes: humid moss and sun-warmed sand. One speaks to replenishment; the other, to the need for it. Which world draws you in?

both are lovely, but the desert image provides a beautiful contrast!
