Lara, an eco-landscaper who adapts gardens to a natural environment, asked me to design a logo for her company, Simplement Jardin (Simply Garden). She had been working for another landscaper in Brittany, France, and after furthering her education made the decision to branch out on her own.
She wanted to demonstrate the direct relationship between the earth and sun and the cycle of life. She asked that we add the ladybug to remind us that all things in a garden are part of the cycle of life.
I left the circles open by 1/4 to show the openness of her design process, the vastness of Earth and space, and the growing seasons of spring, summer, and autumn.
I also made a brochure for her…though hers has the real information, while this is just placeholder text.
