Moodboard

The moodboard was curated to express the “mood” of the brand and to inspire all visual decisions.

We are shifting the visuals to include a lot more minimalist themes, more white space, and less of the deep colors for backgrounds. This has a higher-end, unisex feel, and gives the symbolism of space for our client’s brands to take center stage.

Image Style

casual but professional

SPACE, STARS, THE UNIVERSE, NORTHERN LIGHTS

MOCKUPS OF CLIENT WORK, COURSES, PRODUCTS, RESOURCES (PREFER MAC)

Whitespace, minimalist

Books, glasses

Magical or inquisitive images. (Magnifying glass, crystal ball, reflections, illusions)

Pictures of Kaye

Work from Anywhere, online business

HIGH TECH, FUTURISTIC

Repeating patterns, especially featuring triangles

Photos of Kaye’s interests: decor, favorite brands, books, travel

Lights, twinkle lights, spiral patterns

Image Don’ts

Corporate or brick-and-mortar

Cities, skyscrapers, traffic, “concrete jungle”

Messy, cluttered, busy workspace

Too saturated or way outside our brand color palette

THINGS THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN IN REAL LIFE. ALSO PREFER A MIX OF GENDERS & RACES IN PHOTOS

TOO MESSY/BUSY AND COLORS ARE WAY OFF.
(Patterns and geometry should be clean and minimalist in style)

Pinks, too feminine

PEOPLE LOOKING CONFUSED, FRUSTRATED, ETC.
(Instead focus on the positive transformation)
