I’ve always admired design that blends classic elegance with modern simplicity. For this project, I was inspired by the understated luxury of Louis Vuitton’s fragrance bottles, clean lines, subtle colors, and no unnecessary embellishments.

Logo & Font Selection

Logo & Font Selection

The logo for Serene Blossom embodies tranquility and natural beauty. A lotus flower, gently held graceful hands, symbolizes peace and elegance.


I chose a deep purple gradient for luxury and mystery, with a hint of pink to add a modern touch. The Baskerville typeface brings timeless elegance, echoing vintage botanical illustrations while keeping the design both classic and contemporary

Overview

"Serene Blossom" is a branding and design project created in just five weeks, blending elegance with modernity to tell a story of tranquility and natural beauty.


The design process began by exploring how these themes could translate into a tangible product. The result: a sleek, minimalist fragrance bottle paired with a delicate logo featuring a lotus flower, symbolizing peace and grace.


Through 3D modeling, animation, and video editing, I crafted a cohesive visual narrative that brings the brand to life—simple, serene, and undeniably captivating.
