The brief

Landscaping that treats the land as sacred.

Earths Embrace designs, plants and cares for gardens across Boulder County, and teaches people to look after their own. The work is practical and spiritual at once. They needed a logo, brand and website that feel calm and grounded, yet still professional.

The challenge

Three challenges.

A mark with meaning

Sun, plant and earth in one simple shape.

Calm, not crunchy

Spiritual, yet still trusted.

Made to be found

Gardens first, booking easy.
Research & discovery

Four stages from brand to website.

01

Discover

Listen before designing
  • Interview the founder.
  • Define audience, values and tone.
02

Explore

Research and sketch

Study competitors, build a moodboard, sketch logo ideas.

03

Design

Shape the logo and pages
  • Develop the best logo concepts.
  • Design UX/UI.
04

Build

Bring it all together

Vibe code the responsive website.

Design direction

Quiet, natural and grounded.

Contour lines and the Golden Ratio echo the logo, sage and deep green keep it calm, and real landscaping photos do the selling.

The logo

Hands held in prayer. A rising sun above a plant. A spiral that follows the Golden Ratio, in one rounded arch: practical and spiritual at once. Boho.
