the brief
To create a brand identity that reflected the founder's roots as well as relate to Gen Z audiences.
the solution
The serpent played a very important role in Aztec religion.
Likewise the ability of many species to move freely between water, earth and the forest canopy helped underline their symbolic role as intermediaries between the different layers of the cosmos (underworld, earth and sky). The Aztecs held great significance in the different layers of the cosmos and their union, so snakes representation of this was highly regarded.
Existing in alternate worlds connects to the story of the Dusk Hera brand, Using the serpent as a vehicle to move between the different worlds acts as the perfect visual identifier for the brand. The periwinkle blue is the primary colour of the brand to tie to the magical dusky skies and flashes of neon green are used to attract Gen Z audiences.
