What Inspires You Wednesday: Moodboard

Client: Devi Women's Health




If I want or need a little creative inspiration, often when working on branding design projects, I look no further than color to get things rolling.

That is certainly the case with one of my branding design clients, Mimi of Devi Women's Health Care, a contemplative women's whole care practice in New York City. 

Mimi isn't afraid of color. In fact she embraces it and sees it as an extension of herself and what her brand should reprsent: her desire to provide embrace women with genuine 'whole care' to foster wellness and good health at every stage of life.

The color palette for this branding project is all of that and more. It's colorful like the many personalities, faces, backgrounds, and cultures of the women that Mimi is sure to care for in the years to come.  Mimi herself (pictured below right) is the embodiment of the kind of encompassing brightness and light that we want her logo exude.

In addition to color palette, branding design will be directed by Buddhist beliefs and symbols focused on the the enlightened spirit, something Mimi hopes to instill in the clients and patients of Devi Women's Health, helping them to embrace their lifelong journey of their own health and its inevitable stages and changes.

Suffice it to say, there is a lot of inspiration going 'round and 'round my head.

What's inspiring you today?

Hope it's a great one on your end. I'll do the best to make it the same on mine.

Ciao for now,
