Concept Explorationโ€”Nailing it from the Start

Knowing we had a delicate balance to strike, I developed 3 difference creative direction concepts at the start so we had concrete visual references to point to and align on. Samantha and I used concept 3 as the base of her brand, but took some of the grounded-ness of concept 2 and the lighter energy of concept 1 to create her perfect mix.
