Brand Design
VISUAL IDENTITY + MESSAGING
A modern yet timeless identity, the brand design seamlessly blends style with strategy. The cohesive system—featuring logos, colors, and typography—ensures flexibility across platforms while maintaining visual impact. It’s a design that tells a story of professionalism and confidence with the perfect dash of playfulness.
When I first delved into reimagining Anna’s brand, her intricate watercolor paintings immediately captivated me as a fellow artist. However, recognizing the digital sphere's need for versatility, I proposed a slight pivot— simpler line drawings capturing the essence of everyday moments, from the curve of a wine glass to the deliciousness of plump produce. This suggestion, while a departure from Anna's usual layered depth, aimed to inject a lighter, more accessible vibe into her online presence. Not only did this approach enrich her digital storytelling, but it also sparked excitement about the potential for these charming illustrations to grace a range of merchandise. This collaborative venture opened a new chapter for Anna, blending her profound artistry with playful simplicity, and setting the stage for a broader engagement with her audience.
In designing Anna Canfield's website and branding, I embraced the essence of spaciousness, reflecting Anna's value of giving each artwork the room to communicate its story and emotional depth. The primary logo, with its bold sans-serif typeface, encapsulates Anna's blend of sophistication, authenticity, and a bridge between traditional and contemporary art. The color palette and font suite were chosen to complement this narrative, blending '90s-inspired hues with modern elegance to ensure every element of Anna's branding invites engagement and reflects her unique artistic journey.
ILLUSTRATION ASK + SPACIOUS DESIGN
Crafting a memorable unboxing experience is more than just a touchpoint; it's a transformative moment that can elevate art into an emotional journey for the collector. For Anna Canfield, Studio ZCC designed packaging that embodies the essence of her art—meticulous, authentic, and deeply personal. Each element, from the textured paper to the carefully placed seals, is a deliberate choice to stir anticipation and joy, which makes the act of unveiling her artwork feel like uncovering a hidden treasure. This carefully crafted experience not only protects the artwork but also resonates with the collector’s senses, forging a lasting bond between the artist and her audience.
Through careful consideration of Anna's core values and the unique narrative of her art, we've crafted a brand experience that highlights her exceptional talent and connects deeply with her evolving audience. The strategic use of space, color, and typography creates an immersive experience to invite viewers into Anna's world of introspection, growth, and universal connection. As Anna continues to explore and express the nuances of the human experience through her art, her brand now stands as a beacon of authenticity, sophistication, and emotional resonance, ready to captivate and inspire a new wave of art enthusiasts and collectors.
We’re celebrating the world of pasta-bilities to come for Anna with her new branding and website!
UNBOXING + BRAND EXPERIENCE
Before working with Studio ZCC, I had trouble pinning down a unifying message for my brand. After working together, not only do I have a strong, new design unique to me and my business, but I have a newfound confidence and a clearer voice for the path ahead. The design was not the only deliverable - Zoe’s process helped to build a stronger, more self-assured businesswoman out of me.
