The final logo design grew from the shop's existing charm and the theme of reuse. Early concepts focused on a handmade look and feel, using script fonts for a handwritten look to the lettering, and framing the name with a recycling symbol or floral decorations to underscore the themes of natural, zero-waste products. During development, Laura highlighted how recycled and reusable glass jars were often used as part of the shop's displays and product storage. This inspired a design with the business name framed in a stylised jar, producing an icon that felt charming and appropriate to the business' presentation while tying back in to the theme of zero-waste.
To stand out from the crowd and differentiate from other environmentally-themed brands, we wanted to avoid the clichéd earthy greens and browns used by similar brands. Instead, the primary palette consisted of a cheerful, energetic and eye-catching green, paired with a strong and dark teal to provide maximum contrast. The end result is a logo that immediately engages attention, standing out from the crowd both in retail and in the zero-waste market.
