Wrapping up a very special brand this week with The Hive CDA! It's been such an honor to collaborate with these ladies who are founding the first space of its kind in Northern Idaho.

Half co-working space and half learning annex, The Hive is an inclusive space dedicated to the advancement of women. It'll offer the opportunity for creative collaboration, professional advancement, and real life connection - all inside of an inspiring and eclectic environment.

When I think of my years growing up here feeling starved for creativity and connection, it's hard to express just how much this place is needed. Capturing a renewed feeling of euphoric and endless potential through their branding was essential for me - and I'm so happy with the final product 🖤

Thank you again to Melinda and Delia for allowing me to be a part of such an important and positive step for Coeur d'Alene!

This pattern from a recent brand wrap-up with has got to be one of my favorites! We love a bold color palette ✨

So excited to share the final identity for RMJ Equipment! RMJ's brand allowed me to work with some of my favorite concepts - plant illustration, slick geometry, and big bold typography 🌿

So excited to share the final identity for RMJ Equipment!

As a designer, it's incredibly rewarding to create a logo that clients not only love for their brand visually, but connect with on an emotional level that reinforces the mission of the brand. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #cannabisbranding #commercialcannabis #plantlogo #plantillustration #graphicdesign #graphicdesigner #customlogo #keepthecreativity #creativelifestyle #creativeliving #femaleowned #makersmovement #madeforyou #shoplocal #identitydesign #freelancedesigner #branddesigner #freelancingfemales #pnwcreatives #lessworkmorelife #psimadethis #madeinidaho #beyourbrand #logowork #goodtypetuesday #businessdesign #herestothecreatives #cannabiscultivation #rmjequipment⁠
