Empowering Strength Beyond Trauma Zoe Plant is a UK-based counselor and coach dedicated to empowering women healing from trauma, domestic abuse, and addiction. When Zoe approached me, she wasn’t just looking for a logo; she wanted a visual sanctuary - a symbol that whispers, "You’re not broken. You’re blooming".
Message
The Goal
To create branding that feels like a hand that holds, balancing elegant femininity with grounded strength.
Founder
The Message
Every curve was designed with the intention of building a safe space for growth and resilience.
Primary Logo
Resilience Rooted in Every Detail
The identity system was built around thoughtful symbolism to honor the journey of recovery.
The Lotus: Chosen to represent resilience and the ability to grow through adversity.
Minimalist Curves: Designed to feel soft and supportive, yet structurally strong to represent the "feminine fierce" spirit.
Secondary Logo
Strategic Minimalism: I focused on a "less is more" approach, ensuring the branding feels like a quiet, calm breath of fresh air rather than loud marketing.

The final identity system was designed to be used consistently across print and digital mediums to build a recognizable and trusted presence.

The Typeface
I paired Playfair Display (Heading) for its elegant and bold duality with Hanken Grotesk (Body Text) for modern clarity.
