BRAND TONE / THEMES
Logo Development
Sketch
In these sketches, I explored combining the first initials “C” and “T” in abstract ways to form a unique, memorable mark for Cork N Things. Several concepts incorporate branching forms or symmetrical elements inspired by trees, symbolizing natural growth and balance. The goal was to create a logo that feels both organic and elegant, reflecting the brand’s connection to nature and lifestyle.
Iterations
These early iterations didn’t make it to the final cut, but they played a crucial role in shaping the direction of the brand. By experimenting with letterforms and organic, nature-inspired shapes, I was able to explore the balance between structure and elegance. This process helped clarify the visual language and ultimately led to a more refined and fitting logo for Cork N Things.

Stacked Lockup
The stacked version emphasizes boldness and presence, ideal for packaging, signage, or promotional materials. This arrangement highlights the harmony between the icon and the text, creating a compact yet impactful visual identity.
Horizontal Lockup
The horizontal lockup presents a sleek and versatile design, perfect for banners, website headers, and business cards. Its clean alignment communicates balance and professionalism, while maintaining the elegance of the icon paired with the brand name.

The standalone icon captures the essence of the brand in its purest form. Simple yet distinctive, it conveys creativity and sophistication, making it a strong mark for social media, product stamps, or subtle branding elements
Final logo
This final logo for Cork N Things beautifully captures the brand’s essence with a sleek, stylized mark that suggests a blooming flower or a cork bursting open—symbolizing celebration, elegance, and nature.

Paired with a refined serif typeface, the logo balances sophistication with personality, making it a perfect fit for a lifestyle or wine-focused brand.
