Amerimark wanted to take advantage of a growing global wellness market estimated at $4.2 trillion. Women’s sexual health had long been neglected, but now mainstream retailers such as Anthropolgie and Urban Outfitters were embracing it. Amerimark wanted a brand that appealed to a slightly older demographic, therefore brand personality and voice were crucial.
I created Adora Luna, where body positivity, pampering, and wellness are at the heart of the brand. The brand personality is that of a trusted friend and the look and feel conveys a natural, upscale approach to self-care.

In advance of opening their first retail outlets, Hudsonville, an 87-year old ice cream brand, was ready to explore updating their identity. The company was started by Michigan dairy farmers in 1926, but wanted a look that would appeal to modern families while retaining ties to their heritage of tradition and quality.
Tapping into the joy and childlike glee that goes with ice cream, I developed a whimsical pattern of icons and illustrations that made the brand feel more contemporary.
