Logo
The design ingeniously integrates the initials of the brand, "U" and "H," to form a harmonious and visually striking emblem. Its clean lines, subtle curves, and expertly balanced negative space evoke a sense of modern elegance.
Color Palette
The calming and earthy tones of sage green create a harmonious connection to the cannabis theme's natural and organic aspects. While the green exudes a sense of tranquility and growth, the subtle inclusion of muted blues and yellows adds depth and versatility to the palette.
The Outcome
My project stands out for its commitment to redefining the perception of the cannabis industry. "Urban Herb" is designed to be clean, modern, and down-to-earth. It challenges stereotypes of cannabis as subpar by demonstrating that it can be well-designed and approachable. This approach reflects the essence of the cannabis industry while infusing it with a touch of sophistication, transforming the way people view and engage with cannabis. It exemplifies the power of design and branding to reshape perceptions while maintaining a sense of accessibility.
