Macondo Flowers is a Melbourne-based florist brand inspired by Colombian culture and the beauty of everyday moments. The identity was designed to feel warm, expressive, and nostalgic, while remaining contemporary and versatile.

The visual system combines bold typography, a rich earthy colour palette, and custom floral illustrations to create a distinctive brand language. These elements work together across print, social media, and in-store applications, allowing the brand to feel consistent, emotional, and recognisable at every touchpoint.

As a leader in women’s health for over three decades, Harmony is committed to empowering women through every phase of their lives. To support this mission, I developed a set of illustrations that capture the diverse and inspiring spirit of women. These illustrations are designed to be used across all brand applications, serving as a visual representation of Harmony’s commitment to supporting women’s health and wellness.
In addition to the illustrations, we developed a comprehensive social media strategy for the brand, creating a roadmap that aligns with Harmony’s values and objectives, while also engaging and connecting with their target audience. The resulting social media presence is strong, dynamic, and aligned with Harmony’s mission to empower women across the globe.

I had the privilege of working on the branding creation for Shape House, a unique self-care boutique located in Cremorne, Melbourne. I collaborated closely with the client to translate their vision into a cohesive graphic identity that resonates with their philosophy. The goal was to create a brand that goes beyond traditional spa concepts, offering a space where clients can relax and reconnect with their bodies.

The result is a brand that stands out in the competitive wellness industry of Melbourne, appealing to individuals seeking not only physical transformation but also a serene environment for self-care.
