Brand Identity • Packaging • Campaign Design
Minimal monochrome visuals, bold typography, and soft gradients for a new audio brand. I designed the full identity, packaging system, and campaign visuals for launch across digital and retail.
Oasis Audio approached me at the pre-launch stage with a clear vision: to position themselves as the refined alternative in a crowded headphone market.

Subtle, light-driven photography and a quiet typographic system to position Opal as a calm, trustworthy skincare brand. Deliverables includedcommerce visuals.
Opal came to me with a clear ask: their skincare line was gentle, effective, and ingredient-focused, but their visual identity felt generic and overlooked. I redesigned everything from the ground up, starting with a new logotype that felt softer and more considered. The photography direction emphasized natural light and minimal styling—no aggressive shadows or clinical backdrops. I designed a label system that worked across multiple product formats (bottles, tubes, jars) while keeping a unified look. Typography was kept quiet and elegant, letting the imagery breathe.
